request.fullpath gives the fullpath plus any parameter passed, such as

/page

Thank you.

Use `path` instead of `fullpath`.

Although not documented, request.path worked for me. I usually use my plugin rails_web_console for playing with the request object.

Update:

As noticed by turboladen, “[ActionDispatch::Request][2] inherits from [Rack::Request‌][3], where request.path is defined”.

path is not documented there, but the source displays script_name + path_info.
