display List/library url in display template

Question

I am trying to add the url of libraries in the display template. ListUrl does not return any value.

So I thought using javascript to replace the filename to "". However it is throwing an error:

Object doesn't support property or method 'lastIndexOf' Any idea how to get the List Url in display templates?

var listPath = ctx.CurrentItem.Path; //Get Path
if (listPath.indexOf("Lists/") >= 0) {  //If contains List/
    var afterLists = listPath.substring(listPath.lastIndexOf("Lists/")+6); //get url after "Lists/"
    var listTitle = afterLists.split('/'); // split 
    listTitle[0] = listTitle[0].replace("_", " "); //get list title and replace _ with " "
    listTitle = listTitle[0]; // set list title in var
}
else  { //no Lists/ in path
    listPath = ""; //set empty
    listTitle = listPath;
} else if (listPath.indexOf("ces/") >= 0 && listPath.indexOf("Lists/") < 0) {  //If contains ces/ without lists
    var afterLists = listPath.substring(listPath.lastIndexOf("ces/")+4); //get url after "ces/"
    var listTitle = afterLists.split('/'); // split 
    listTitle[0] = listTitle[0].replace("_", " "); //get list title and replace "_" with " "
    listTitle = listTitle[0]; // set list title in var
}

You can use the OOTB managed property ParentLink which will have the URL of the list or document library.

In the <mso:ManagedPropertyMapping section of display template, add the ParentLink managed property.

After that, in your code you can use it as :

ctx.CurrentItem.ParentLink

or in your HTML as something like:

<a href="_#= ctx.CurrentItem.ParentLink =#_" title="All items">All items</a>
