ASP.NET MVC - Get parameter value from URL in the view

Question

How do I get parameter value from the URL in the client side, view?

URL:

localhost:18652/category/1

MapRoute:

 routes.MapRoute(
     name: "ResultsByCategory",
     url: "category/{id}",
     defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "ResultsByCategory"}
 );

How do I get ID?

in controller Home create method ResultsByCategory that takes id as parameter — Daniel Manta

there are several options, you can pass it in the model (pass the model when you return the view in ResultsByCategory) or use ViewBag, ViewData or TempData, depending on what you want to do — Daniel Manta

I don't want to pass this value from controller to view. I need to get it directly from url, request etc., but in my view. — akcza

I tested this url:

http://localhost:1865/category/Index/1

In view I have this:

You can get id by this code in example view:

@{
    var id = Request.Url.Segments[3];
}

In general case, You can use this code:

@{
    var id = Request.Url.Segments.Last();
}

Didn't understand the point of directly getting from URL, Request as your view is always going to get loaded from your controller.

So as derloopkat suggested

In your Home Controller

Public ActionResult ResultsByCategory (int id)
{
  ViewBag.id = id;
  return View();
}

In your view you can use it by calling

@ViewBag.id

This code works better for your code

string id = Request.Path.Value.Split('/').LastOrDefault();
