expressjs: get requested url

Question

I want to get the url the client has requested out of the request.

Currently I use:

var requestedUrl = req.protocol + \'://\' + req.host + \':3000\' + re         


        

Answer 1

Is this that you are looking for ?

req._parsedUrl.pathname

You should, if you don't already use:

var util = require('util'); // core module
console.log(util.inspect(req));

To debug find out that kind of data.
