Extract path from generateUrl php symfony - php

Question

Pretty basic question and I am sorry for that but I haven't find the answer to my problem yet
I have an getArticleUrl method that returns $this->urlGenerator->generate($article);
In my function, all I need to do is to append the query params to the articleUrl
public function articleController(Request $request, string $uuid)
{
$queryParams = $request->query->all();
$articleUrl = $this->getArticleUrl($uuid);
$redirectUrl = append somehow the query params;
return new RedirectResponse($redirectUrl, 301);
}
I tried to use the generate method again but it didn't work as I supposed it already has the domain in it and it will duplicate it
$redirectUrl = $this->urlGenerator->generate($articleUrl, $queryParams, UrlGeneratorInterface::ABSOLUTE_URL);
or perhaps I could get only the path from $articleUrl and call the generate for the new path and that could work, but it didn't
public function articleController(Request $request, string $uuid)
{
$queryParams = $request->query->all();
$articleUrl = $this->getArticleUrl($uuid);
$parsed = parse_url($articleUrl);
$path = $parsed['path'];
if ($path) {
$redirectUrl = $this->urlGenerator->generate($path, $queryParams);
} else {
$redirectUrl = $articleUrl;
}
return new RedirectResponse($redirectUrl, 301);
}

You could use http_build_query
public function articleController(Request $request, string $uuid)
{
$queryParams = $request->query->all();
$articleUrl = $this->getArticleUrl($uuid);
$redirectUrl = $articleUrl . '?' . http_build_query($queryParams);
return new RedirectResponse($redirectUrl, 301);
}
