Spring + AngularJS (HTML) getting Context Path?

Question

I am currently using Spring and AngularJS.

So far no problem displaying my index.html using Spring like so

@RequestMapping(value="/")
public String index() {
    return "/app/index.html";
}

Is there any way I can get my context path in my .html? Or should I render my index as index.jsp?

As you said, you should render it as a JSP in order to access the contextpath:

${pageContext.request.contextPath}

If you wanna stick to pure HTML maybe you could extract it from the URL with Javascript:

function getContextPath() {
    return window.location.pathname.substring(0, window.location.pathname.indexOf("/",2));
}
console.log(getContextPath());

Yeah I'm hoping for other options though if they exist.

The JS alternative will do for now. Thanks!

Is there an easy way to append the result of getContextPath() to a href link?
