Get current action's path/url including query string? (Rails)

Simple question - how do I get the path or full URL of the current action INCLUDING the query string?

I wish to save it to the session variable like so:

def show
  @thingy = Thingy.find(params[:id])

  session[:some_var] = current_url

  ...
end

At the moment I'm doing the following, but it seems a bit heavy-handed (especially the specifying of query string params individually):

def show
  @thingy = Thingy.find(params[:id])

  session[:some_var] = thingy_path(@thingy, :q1 => params[:q1], :q2 => params[:q2])

  ...
end

request.url is probably what you are looking for.

access params variable,it will give you query as well as controller and action. By using request object you can dig more deeper if you want.
