I’m using a function to clear the URL, but I’d just like to clear a part of it.

    window.setTimeout(function() {
        window.history.replaceState(null, null, window.location.pathname);
    }, 5000);

For example the URL is ?id=1&msg=sc and I wanted to just leave ?id=1 how can I do this?

javascript

  • What are you doing this for? Wouldn’t it be better to just take directly the values of id and msg without having to do separations and replacements?

It is possible using the split, you can separate your url by & and retrieve only the first parameter.

let url = "google.com?id=1&msg=sc"; // url
let urlSplit = url.split("&"); // cria um array separados por '&'
url = urlSplit[0]; // Recupera o primeiro item do array, no caso tudo antes do primeiro '&'

console.log(url);

If you want to take more than one parameter, just concatenate the parameters, getting something like this: 

let url = "google.com?id=1&msg=sc&teste=123"; // url
let urlSplit = url.split("&"); // cria um array separados por '&'
url = `${urlSplit[0]}&${urlSplit[2]}`; // Recupera os items do array, concatenando por &

console.log(url);

  • I implemented in my code, in the console it works, but in the url of the browser remains the url, it would need to be done something to work?

  • Try the following: window.location.href = url

var url = new URL(window.location.href)
url.searchParams.delete("msg")
history.replaceState(history.state, null, url.toString());

Idea demonstration (Chrome 49+, FF 29+):

var address = "http://google.com?id=1&msg=sc"
var url = new URL(address)
url.searchParams.delete("msg")
console.log(url.toString())
