Get ClientContext in SharePoint App

Posted on by Shaun Vermaak 
Add the following function


[sourcecode language="javascript"]

    function getParameterByName(name) {

        name = name.replace(/[\[]/, "\\[").replace(/[\]]/, "\\]");

        var regex = new RegExp("[\\?&]" + name + "=([^&#]*)"),

            results = regex.exec(location.search);

        return results === null ? "" : decodeURIComponent(results[1].replace(/\+/g, " "));

    }


[/sourcecode]


Then you can use this to get ClientContext


[sourcecode language="javascript"]

    siteUrl = getParameterByName("SPAppWebUrl");


    var clientContext = new SP.ClientContext(siteUrl);
