For example

url = "http://example.com/profile"

req.get('host') will give the hostname like http://example.com.

in req.url you can get url /profile

  1. https://www.npmjs.com/package/request
  2. https://nodejs.org/api/http.html

use expressjs for routing http://expressjs.com/ For example

app.get('/profile', function (req, res) {
  res.send('GET request to homepage');//or render profile page
});
