Answer 1

You can access to the context path using ExternalContext#getRequestContextPath. From its javadoc:

Return the portion of the request URI that identifies the web application context for this request.

Servlet: This must be the value returned by the javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest method getContextPath().

Usage in code:

FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getRequestContextPath()
