.NET - Get protocol, host, and port

Question

Is there a simple way in .NET to quickly get the current protocol, host, and port? For example, if I\'m on the following URL:

http://www.mywebsite.com:80/pages

Answer 1

Very similar to Holger's answer. If you need to grab the URL can do something like:

Uri uri = Context.Request.Url;         
var scheme = uri.Scheme // returns http, https
var scheme2 = uri.Scheme + Uri.SchemeDelimiter; // returns http://, https://
var host = uri.Host; // return www.mywebsite.com
var port = uri.Port; // returns port number

The Uri class provides a whole range of methods, many which I have not listed.

In my instance, I needed to grab LocalHost along with the Port Number, so this is what I did:

var Uri uri = Context.Request.Url;
var host = uri.Scheme + Uri.SchemeDelimiter + uri.Host + ":" + uri.Port; 

Which successfully grabbed: http://localhost:12345
