set('PARAM_HERE', VALUE_HERE); history. pushState(null, '', url); This will preserve everything about the URL and only change or add the one query param. You can also use replaceState instead of pushState if you don't want it to create a new browser history entry.
To append a param onto the current URL with JavaScript, we can create a new URL instance from the URL string. Then we can call the searchParams. append method on the URL instance to append a new URL parameter into it. to create a new URL instance with "http://foo.bar/?x=1&y=2" .
Simply use: echo http_build_url($url, array("query" => "the=query&parts=here"), HTTP_URL_JOIN_QUERY); .
You could use the HttpUtility.ParseQueryString
method and an UriBuilder
which provides a nice way to work with query string parameters without worrying about things like parsing, url encoding, ...:
string longurl = "http://somesite.com/news.php?article=1&lang=en";
var uriBuilder = new UriBuilder(longurl);
var query = HttpUtility.ParseQueryString(uriBuilder.Query);
query["action"] = "login1";
query["attempts"] = "11";
uriBuilder.Query = query.ToString();
longurl = uriBuilder.ToString();
// "http://somesite.com:80/news.php?article=1&lang=en&action=login1&attempts=11"
I've wrapped Darin's answer into a nicely reusable extension method.
public static class UriExtensions
{
/// <summary>
/// Adds the specified parameter to the Query String.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="url"></param>
/// <param name="paramName">Name of the parameter to add.</param>
/// <param name="paramValue">Value for the parameter to add.</param>
/// <returns>Url with added parameter.</returns>
public static Uri AddParameter(this Uri url, string paramName, string paramValue)
{
var uriBuilder = new UriBuilder(url);
var query = HttpUtility.ParseQueryString(uriBuilder.Query);
query[paramName] = paramValue;
uriBuilder.Query = query.ToString();
return uriBuilder.Uri;
}
}
I hope this helps!
The provided answers have issues with relative Url's, such as "/some/path/" This is a limitation of the Uri and UriBuilder class, which is rather hard to understand, since I don't see any reason why relative urls would be problematic when it comes to query manipulation.
Here is a workaround that works for both absolute and relative paths, written and tested in .NET 4:
(small note: this should also work in .NET 4.5, you will only have to change propInfo.GetValue(values, null)
to propInfo.GetValue(values)
)
public static class UriExtensions{
/// <summary>
/// Adds query string value to an existing url, both absolute and relative URI's are supported.

/// <code>
/// // returns "www.domain.com/test?param1=val1&param2=val2&param3=val3"

public static Uri ExtendQuery(this Uri uri, IDictionary<string, string> values) {
var baseUrl = uri.ToString();
var queryString = string.Empty;
if (baseUrl.Contains("?")) {
var urlSplit = baseUrl.Split('?');
baseUrl = urlSplit[0];
queryString = urlSplit.Length > 1 ? urlSplit[1] : string.Empty;
}
NameValueCollection queryCollection = HttpUtility.ParseQueryString(queryString);
foreach (var kvp in values ?? new Dictionary<string, string>()) {
queryCollection[kvp.Key] = kvp.Value;
}
var uriKind = uri.IsAbsoluteUri ? UriKind.Absolute : UriKind.Relative;
return queryCollection.Count == 0
? new Uri(baseUrl, uriKind)
: new Uri(string.Format("{0}?{1}", baseUrl, queryCollection), uriKind);
}

Note you can add the Microsoft.AspNetCore.WebUtilities
nuget package from Microsoft and then use this to append values to query string:
QueryHelpers.AddQueryString(longurl, "action", "login1")
QueryHelpers.AddQueryString(longurl, new Dictionary<string, string> { { "action", "login1" }, { "attempts", "11" } });
