I have a URL like this:

I want to get http://www.example.com/mypage

Answer 1

Here's an extension method using @Kolman's answer. It's marginally easier to remember to use Path() than GetLeftPart. You might want to rename Path to GetPath, at least until they add extension properties to C#.

Usage:

Uri uri = new Uri("http://www.somewhere.com?param1=foo¶m2=bar");
string path = uri.Path();

The class:

using System;

namespace YourProject.Extensions
{
    public static class UriExtensions
    {
        public static string Path(this Uri uri)
        {
            if (uri == null)
            {
                throw new ArgumentNullException("uri");
            }
            return uri.GetLeftPart(UriPartial.Path);
        }
    }
}
