Get-canonical-url NPM

🔗 get-canonical-url

Determines the current page's canonical URL and optionally normalizes it via normalize-url for consistency.

Install

npm install get-canonical-url
# or...
yarn add get-canonical-url

Or pull directly from unpkg in-browser:

<script src="https://unpkg.com/get-canonical-url/dist/get-canonical-url.min.js"></script>

Usage

With `<link rel="canonical">`

<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
  <link rel="canonical" href="https://www.example.com/this/doesnt/exist.aspx?no=really&it=doesnt#gocheck">
</head>
</html>

import canonicalUrl from "get-canonical-url";

canonicalUrl();
//=> 'https://www.example.com/this/doesnt/exist.aspx?no=really&it=doesnt#gocheck'

canonicalUrl({
  normalize: true,
  normalizeOptions: {
    stripProtocol: true,
    stripWWW: true,
    stripHash: true
  }
})
//=> 'example.com/this/doesnt/exist.aspx?it=doesnt&no=really'

Without `<link rel="canonical">`

import canonicalUrl from "get-canonical-url";

canonicalUrl({
  guess: true,
  normalize: true
});
//=> Determined via the individual user's window.location.href or other similar browser hints. Normalizing is recommended.
