Read Route Params From Directly Entered Url In App

My question would be regarding angular 4, how to get route params, if for example a user gets on your page with, instead of the default url, like for example http://localhost:3000/

Solution 1:

Your way is already ok, but in your example params is an array and you can access to :id by calling params['id']:

this.sub = this.route.params.subscribe(params => {
  console.log('params are', params['id']);
});

Here is an working example on stackblitz.

Solution 2:

Access current url via Location

publicconstructor(location:Location) {
  let url = location.prepareExternalUrl(location.path());
}

and parse out id from this.
