Shopware 6: How to URL

A colleague wrote a plugin and the customer said, the translation doesn’t work. Our plugin loads more data via a form and AJAX.

The problem: Always queries base url

The problem is, that our JS plugin always queries the base url https://example.com instead of https://example.com/en so Shopware didn’t had any chance to find the correct sales channel.

I replaced the hardcoded urls with JS configuration as documented. The next step was to add the dynamic url. I tried it with {{ url() }} and with {{ path() }}, but it didn’t work. Symfony or shopware didn’t add the /en.

The solution: seoUrl

It took a while of fiddling, but after the penny dropped, I looked up how product urls are generated:

{{ seoUrl('my.api.url') }}

Update (23.01.24):

seoUrl only returns a path, not a complete url, so in case, that your language urls are subdomains, you might want to use rawUrl instead.
