Get Current Path of Page in Middleman Layout File

middleman, ruby

Solution

Middleman also provides the `current_page` variable. `current_page.path` is the source path of this resource (relative to the source directory, without template extensions) and `current_page.url` is the path without the directory index (so `foo/index.html` becomes just `foo`).

<%= current_page.path %>
# -> index.html

<%= current_page.url %>
# -> /

Problem

Is it possible to retrieve the current path of a page in a middleman file? For instance, if I have a layout file `layout.erb` with something like the following: ``` <%= page.path %> <%= yield %> ``` and a test file `index.html`: ``` Testing ``` then when Middleman rendered the page I would get something like: ``` /index.html Testing ```
