Whats the better way to identify the context path in Angular JS

Question

I have my web application deployed to tomcat with an applicatio context. For example my URL looks something like this.

http://localhost:8080/myapp

Answer 1

Inject the $location service to your controller.

 var path = $location.path(); // will tell you the current path
     path = path.substr(1).split('/'); // you still have to split to get the application context

 // path() is also a setter
 $location.path(path[0] + '/getusers');
 // $location.path() === '/myapp/getusers'

 // ------------------ \\

 // Shorter way
 $location.path($location.path() + '/getusers');
 // $location.path() === '/myapp/getusers'
