AngularJs passing url as parameter

Question

I am trying to pass a path url as parameter to my asp.net mvc controller method through angularjs. When I debug I see that Path parameter on code is missing slashes in it.

Like instead of "D:\MyDir\List.txt" it show "D:MyDirList.txt"

how can I pass url as parameter in angular?

 public JsonResult GetData(string Path)
        {          

            var details = GetResult(Path);
            return Json(details, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
        }

var ListPath = "D:\MyDir\List.txt";

$http.get("/Home/GetData",
    { params: { "Path": ListPath })
    .then(function (response) {
        console.log(response);

    });

I think before sending it you should encode this path using encodeURIComponent() — Manish Singh, Nov 24 '16 at 05:22

You need to escape your slashes when you declare them in most languages.

var ListPath = "D:\\MyDir\\List.txt";

but we cannot get this \\ when we pull path from textbox. how do we handle this? – Kurkula Nov 24 '16 at 05:16
if it is passing from textbox then it is already handled correctly, just pass that variable would be fine. – Icycool Nov 24 '16 at 05:17

just encode your ListPath var like this

var ListPath = window.encodeURIComponent("D:\MyDir\List.txt");
