How do I obtain the name of the current route in the controller in Symfony 5? When I try this I get NULL:

$this->Request = Request::createFromGlobals();
$route = $this->Request->attributes->get('_route');

var_dump($route);

It's not recommended to create request inside your controller. Preferred way of obtaining already created Request is DI and autowiring:

// src/Controller/BlogController.php
namespace App\Controller;

use Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\Controller\AbstractController;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
use Symfony\Component\Routing\Annotation\Route;

class BlogController extends AbstractController
{
    /**
     * @Route("/blog", name="blog_list")
     */
    public function list(Request $request)
    {
        $routeName = $request->attributes->get('_route');
        $routeParameters = $request->attributes->get('_route_params');

        var_dump($routeName);
    }
}

This request is processed by Symfony HttpKernel and filled with additional information.

How did it get there: https://github.com/symfony/symfony/blob/b2609c4bae69ca383b97cb520da2ed9be1c48449/src/Symfony/Component/Routing/Matcher/UrlMatcher.php#L217

Found an answer here:

Just add RequestStack as a function parameter and call RequestStack->getCurrentRequest()->get('_route');

use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\RequestStack;

public function yourCalledFunction(Utilities $u, RequestStack $requestStack) {

    $route = $requestStack->getCurrentRequest()->get('_route');
}
