Append to URL and refresh page

I am looking to write a piece of javascript that will append a parameter to the 开发者_如何学Ccurrent URL and then refresh the page - how can I do this?

this should work (not tested!)

var url = window.location.href;    
if (url.indexOf('?') > -1){
   url += '&param=1'
}else{
   url += '?param=1'
}
window.location.href = url;

Shorter than the accepted answer, doing the same, but keeping it simple:

window.location.search += '&param=42';

We don't have to alter the entire url, just the query string, known as the search attribute of location.

When you are assigning a value to the search attribute, the question mark is automatically inserted by the browser and the page is reloaded.

Most of the answers here suggest that one should append the parameter(s) to the URL, something like the following snippet or a similar variation:

location.href = location.href + "&parameter=" + value;

This will work quite well for the majority of the cases.

However

That's not the correct way to append a parameter to a URL in my opinion.

Because the suggested approach does not test if the parameter is already set in the URL, if not careful one may end up with a very long URL with the same parameter repeated multiple times. ie:

https://stackoverflow.com/?&param=1&param=1&param=1&param=1&param=1&param=1&param=1&param=1&param=1

at this point is where problems begin. The suggested approach could and will create a very long URL after multiple page refreshes, thus making the URL invalid. Follow this link for more information about long URL What is the maximum length of a URL in different browsers?

This is my suggested approach:

function URL_add_parameter(url, param, value){
    var hash       = {};
    var parser     = document.createElement('a');

    parser.href    = url;

    var parameters = parser.search.split(/\?|&/);

    for(var i=0; i < parameters.length; i++) {
        if(!parameters[i])
            continue;

        var ary      = parameters[i].split('=');
        hash[ary[0]] = ary[1];
    }

    hash[param] = value;

    var list = [];  
    Object.keys(hash).forEach(function (key) {
        list.push(key + '=' + hash[key]);
    });

    parser.search = '?' + list.join('&');
    return parser.href;
}

With this function one just will have to do the following:

location.href = URL_add_parameter(location.href, 'param', 'value');

If you are developing for a modern browser, Instead of parsing the url parameters yourself- you can use the built in URL functions to do it for you like this:

const parser = new URL(url || window.location);
parser.searchParams.set(key, value);
window.location = parser.href;

location.href = location.href + "&parameter=" + value;

This line of JS code takes the link without params (ie before '?') and then append params to it.

window.location.href = (window.location.href.split('?')[0]) + "?p1=ABC&p2=XYZ";

The above line of code is appending two params p1 and p2 with respective values 'ABC' and 'XYZ' (for better understanding).

function gotoItem( item ){
    var url = window.location.href;
    var separator = (url.indexOf('?') > -1) ? "&" : "?";
    var qs = "item=" + encodeURIComponent(item);
    window.location.href = url + separator + qs;
}

More compat version

function gotoItem( item ){
    var url = window.location.href;    
    url += (url.indexOf('?') > -1)?"&":"?" + "item=" + encodeURIComponent(item);
    window.location.href = url;
}

Please check the below code :

/*Get current URL*/    
var _url = location.href; 
/*Check if the url already contains ?, if yes append the parameter, else add the parameter*/
_url = ( _url.indexOf('?') !== -1 ) ? _url+'&param='+value : _url+'?param='+value;
/*reload the page */
window.location.href = _url;

One small bug fix for @yeyo's thoughtful answer above.

Change:

var parameters = parser.search.split(/\?|&/);

To:

var parameters = parser.search.split(/\?|&/);

Try this

var url = ApiUrl(`/customers`);
  if(data){
   url += '?search='+data; 
  }
  else
  { 
      url +=  `?page=${page}&per_page=${perpage}`;
  }
  console.log(url);

Also:

window.location.href += (window.location.href.indexOf('?') > -1 ? '&' : '?') + 'param=1'
