There are some approches but i think you can use params that came with the layout function, or use middleware file to send more information to your layout function, like geo locations and more. Like serverside function you have all http info needed, but if you really need use navigate, its better you use 'use client' on the page function. Or you can use the metadata file generation, in the last case. |

Create a middleware.ts (or .js) in the root of your project. (https://nextjs.org/docs/app/building-your-application/routing/middleware)
then use headers in your layout or page. (https://nextjs.org/docs/app/api-reference/functions/headers#headers)
If this helps you, please also upvote my answer on Stack Overflow. I'm trying to gain reputation. Thanks |

If you change it to a client component, you could use usePathname(). I was just testing it out and its working for me. Give this a shot real quick and see if this fits your needs. (edit. code formatting)

Hey there! To access the URL from server actions and components in your Next.js project, you can use the First, install the package by running the following command: npm install next-extra Once installed, you can use the package as shown below: import { headers } from 'next/headers';
import { pathname } from 'next-extra/pathname';
export default async function Layout({ children }: Readonly<{ children: React.ReactNode }>) {
const base = `${headers().get('x-forwarded-proto')}://${headers().get('host')}`;
const fullUrl = new URL(pathname(), base); // e.g., http://localhost:3000/some/path?a=1&b=2
console.log(fullUrl);
return children;
} I hope this helps! |

Hello. I'm stuck on grabbing the current URL in nextjs 13 Layout component. I want to do it using the nextjs useRouter function, my component without useRouter looks like this
src/app/layout.tsx
I'm not able to use the useRouter function in any of its forms (next/router or next/navigation) they can't be used because the Layout is a server component, if I change it to a client component then the metadata part won't work because of this error:
You are attempting to export "metadata" from a component marked with "use client", which is disallowed. Either remove the export, or the "use client" directive. Read more: https://nextjs.org/docs/getting-started/react-essentials#the-use-client-directive
Is there some workaround to this? I preferably don't want to use the previous version
pages
nextjs version: 13.4.7
