Nodejs Server Hostname

Question

Ok, so it seems pretty easy in Node.js to get the hostname of the request being made to my server:

app.get(\'/\', function(req,res){
    console.log(req.headers.         


        

Answer 1

Yes you can using the;

var express = require('express'),
    app = express(),
    server  = require('http').createServer(app);

server.listen(3000, function(err) {
        console.log(err, server.address());
});

should print

{ address: '0.0.0.0', family: 'IPv4', port: 3000 }

you can also retreive the hostname for the os by the following;

require('os').hostname();
