Access value of the url variable

[samhaaf]

Hello,

I'm trying to attach some reactivity to the value in url that is passed to Router but it's never getting updated.

First question: is that url parameter even being utilized? I can refrain from passing it in and the routing behavior still works as expected.

Second question: if we pass the url as <Route bind:url={url}> will the url get updated?

Third question: if the answer to Q2 is no, can we add that behavior? It would be useful to be able to tap into that variable for reactivity. I have seen other threads about this so I know people would find it useful.

Thank you!
Sam

Please give a full example or minimal repo.

I also tried binding to it, only to discover it doesn't work like that.
To access the current URL, you need to do this:

import { useLocation } from 'svelte-routing';
const location = useLocation();

$: console.log('Current URL path:', $location.pathname)

Its a context variable accessible in any of the components underneath the Router.

It suppose to work. What is wrong or problem you are facing?
