How to build the function in AngularJS to chceck the last part of the url?

My examples:

#/menu1/123/edit

#/menu2/444/create/new

#/menu3/sumbenu1/333/create/new

#/menu4/submenu2/subsubmenu1/subsubsubmenu1/543/edit

The thing is:

123 444 333 543 are the ID's which are generated outside Angular

I need to check the last parts of my url: /edit or /create/new.

The length of the url will be different (number of / inside url).

I have a controller in Angular to get the url:

.controller('urlCtrl', ['$scope', '$rootScope', '$location', function ($scope, $rootScope, $location) {

    $rootScope.location = $location;
    $scope.hashPath = "#" + $rootScope.location.path().toString();
}]);

I'm adding the # character to the url because later I'm paring it with my JSON.

I tried this solution but it didn't work (I also checked another solutions from this topic and nothing happened).

Any ideas?

EDIT:

Or how to check just the edit or create inside the url?

My solution is:

var path = $location.path();
var multisearch = path.search(/create|edit|new/);
console.log("multisearch: " + multisearch);

• angularjs

This should give you the desired result:

window.alert(window.location.href.substr(window.location.href.lastIndexOf('/') + 1));

You could get the current URL by using: window.location.href Then you only need to get the part after the last '/'

More efficient way:

location.pathname.split('/').slice(-1)[0]

In case of http://example./firstdir/seconddir/thirddir?queryparams#hash; it will give you thirddir

• pathname will keep only the part of url after domain name and before query params
• split will explode the url into array separated by /
• slice will give you array containing only the last item
• [0] will you last item as a string (in contrast to item of an array)
