Accessing current path from inside Plugin

[simon]

Hello,

how can I access the current request path* from inside a class extending `hudson.model.Action`? I would like to extend the sidebar link plugin to add a reference to the url.

Regards,
Simon

* e.g. job/<job-name>/ or view/<group>/job/<job-name>/

https://github.com/jenkinsci/sidebar-link-plugin/blob/96c70e3a6fc4cb1357838d8609f029aa15874376/src/main/java/hudson/plugins/sidebar_link/ProjectLinks.java#L116 might be a reasonable place to tell the LinkAction about its owner (or at least the owner's #getUrl).

Otherwise you can always fall back on https://javadoc.jenkins.io/component/stapler/org/kohsuke/stapler/Stapler.html#getCurrentRequest--
