JavaScript - How do I get the URL of script being called?
From http://feather.elektrum.org/book/src.html:
var scripts = document.getElementsByTagName('script');
var index = scripts.length - 1;
var myScript = scripts[index];
The variable myScript
now has the script dom element. You can get the src url by using myScript.src
.
Note that this needs to execute as part of the initial evaluation of the script. If you want to not pollute the Javascript namespace you can do something like:
var getScriptURL = (function() {
var scripts = document.getElementsByTagName('script');
var index = scripts.length - 1;
var myScript = scripts[index];
return function() { return myScript.src; };
})();
You can add id attribute to your script tag (even if it is inside a head tag):
<script id="myscripttag" src="http://site2.com/myscript.js"></script>
and then access to its src as follows:
document.getElementById("myscripttag").src
of course id value should be the same for every document that includes your script, but I don't think it is a big inconvenience for you.
Everything except IE supports
document.currentScript
Simple and straightforward solution that work very well :
If it not IE you can use document.currentScript
For IE you can do document.querySelector('script[src*="myscript.js"]')
so :
function getScriptURL(){
var script = document.currentScript || document.querySelector('script[src*="myscript.js"]')
return script.src
}
update
In a module script, you can use:
import.meta.url
as describe in mdn
