How can I get the current URL or route in TWIG?
php, symfony, twig
Solution
The check you want to do doesn't belong to a view. Views should only take care of displaying, not doing any kind of logic.
Do the check in your controller and store it in a variable, pass this variable to your views, and the check the value of this variable in there. If you want to do this on every action, give the kernel.controller event a look.
If you want to do it in the view anyway, simply compare `app.request.attributes.get('_route')` to the route you want. I don't understand why you put in `path()`.
{% if app.request.attributes.get('_route') == 'my_route' %}
{% endif %}
Problem
I'm very new to Symfony2 and I need to be able to test the current route in TWIG so I can display sub-menus in a template that's rendered like: ``` {% render "CPAdminBundle:Messages:sidebarMenu" %} {% render "CPAdminBundle:Readings:sidebarMenu" %} ``` Within the sidebar templates I tried using the following but it throws an error: ``` path(app.request.attributes.get('_route')) ``` What's the correct way of doing what I'm trying to accomplish?
