How do I find out the anchor in the URI in Pyramid?

Question

Simply put, in Pyramid, when someone requests a page e.g.:

/foo/#bar

How do I find out what the anchor is? In this case, it would be bar. This seems like it should be trivial, but I'm not sure how to retrieve this information in Pyramid.

request.current_route_path(), request.url and request.path would only return /foo/ in this scenario.

(Is Pyramid actually left completely unaware of this? Maybe servers simply never receive this information and I've never realised that 'til now)

Answer 1

The fragment is never sent to the server by the client; you will need to use JavaScript to process it on the client side.
