Use Magento\Framework\App\State
class to get the area code of the current page.
I will show you how you can get the current area by object manager and with dependency injection.
With ObjectManager:
$objectManager = \Magento\Framework\App\ObjectManager::getInstance(); $state = $objectManager->get('Magento\Framework\App\State'); echo $state->getAreaCode();
With Dependency Injection:
protected $_state; public function __construct ( \Magento\Framework\App\State $state ) { $this->_state = $state; } public function getArea() { return $this->_state->getAreaCode(); }
Here getAreaCode()
function returns frontend or adminhtml or webapi_rest
NOTE: Don’t use object manager directly. Read this for more info: https://magento.stackexchange.com/questions/117098/magento-2-to-use-or-not-to-use-the-objectmanager-directly
