Symfony2: Get Route Path

Question

With the command $this->generateUrl($route); inside a Controller I can get the URL of the Route.

However, I only want to retrieve the last part of it (as specified in routing.yml).

For example, instead of /web/app_dev.php/$path I just want to return /$path

How can I achieve this?

You could try this:

$route = $this->get('router')->getRouteCollection()->get('routeName');
if ($route)
    echo $route->getPath();

You also could take a look at Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Command\RouterDebugCommand (class responsible for router:debug console command).

Otherwise: str_replace (or substr) on the first part would also be an option

This is exactly what I've been searching for...Thank you!

This works, but it's important to mention that you should not use getRouteCollection() as it worsens the performance: github.com/symfony/symfony-docs/issues/6710

$request->getPathInfo();

You want to get it from router or request ?
