If is page function to check current page in the Astro?

[thick burrow]

Hello, friends!

I have pages for different local cities, like city1.mdx, city2.mdx. And, I have the select-the-city.astro component in the header. When people click the City link, a dropdown will appear with available cities (which are just internal links to other city pages).

My question is - is there any available function to check the current page? Because as a link, I want to display the current city name. For example: Current city - Almaty (on the almaty.mdx page). On another city page, I want to display the city's name as my link.

In WordPress, I can check the current page with a PHP function like if is_page. Is there any similar function for Astro?

You can use Astro.url.pathname to get the path of the current page https://docs.astro.build/en/reference/api-reference/#astrourl

Thank you, sir, it's a solution for me!

BTW, sometimes .pathname can have a trailing slash which can cause obscure bugs between dev and production, I recommend using a regex to trim it off like this: Astro.url.pathname.replace(/\/$/, '')
