Resolving URI in spark-java

Given a relative link, such as "/v1/payments/sale/:saleId", how can "href" be resolved in this example (from the PayPal API docs: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/hateoas-links/)

{  
  "links": [{
    "href": "https://api.paypal.com/v1/payments/sale/36C38912MN9658832",
    "rel": "self",
    "method": "GET"
  }, {
    "href": "https://api.paypal.com/v1/payments/sale/36C38912MN9658832/refund",
    "rel": "refund",
    "method": "POST"
  }, {
    "href": "https://api.paypal.com/v1/payments/payment/PAY-5YK922393D847794YKER7MUI",
    "rel": "parent_payment",
    "method": "GET"
  }]
}

I'm building a RESTful API using Spark and need to make the API "discoverable".

The Request.url() contains the URL for the current request, so using URL(context, spec) from java.net constructs the link target URL:

URL current = new URL(request.url()); // some resource at https://api.paypal.com/...
URL target = new URL(current "/v1/payments/sale/:saleId");
// ^^ https://api.paypal.com/v1/payments/sale/:saleId
