Setting Dynamic base URL in CodeIgniter 4.0.2

I am migrating my project from CodeIgniter 3 to CodeIgniter 4. I am getting confused for the new structure of the framework. So here's my problem,

I am setting my base url in App.php to:

protected $proj_root= "http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
protected $proj_root2  = str_replace(basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']),"",$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);
protected $mybase= $proj_root.$proj_root2;
public $baseURL =  $mybase;

But I am getting error like this:

Fatal error: Constant expression contains invalid operations in D:\xampp\htdocs\delivery_dashboard\app\Config\App.php on line 26

So literally I can only do this:

public $baseURL = "http://localhost/my_project/"

How can I set my base url dynamically using $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] or is there any workaround here?

Thanks for the help!

This is will help you to add directory if any, and will also add trailing slash. This is very useful when you work on localhost as well as online i.e CI/CD.

app/Config/Constants.php

$base_url = (isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS'] == 'on' ? 'https://' : 'http://') . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']) . (substr(dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']), -1) == '/' ? '' : '/');

defined('BASE_URL') || define('BASE_URL', $base_url);

app/Config/App.php

public $baseURL = BASE_URL;

Checked and working for dynamic baseURL and for PHP spark serve

defined('BASE_URL') OR define('BASE_URL', (isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS'] != 'off'  ? 'https://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] : 'http://') . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . dirname($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']) . '/');
$config['base_url'] = BASE_URL;

Go to app/Config/Constants.php and add the following line of code at end of the file.

$base_url = ((isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS'] == 'on') || isset($_ENV['FORCE_HTTPS'])) ? 'https' : 'http';
$base_url .= '://' . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
$base_url .= str_replace(basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']), '',   $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);
defined('BASESEURL') || define('BASESEURL', $base_url);

Then go to in app/Config/App.php, apply BASESEURL to $baseURL variable

 public $baseURL = BASESEURL;

Improved answer of Boominathan

app/Config/Constants.php

$protocol = isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS'] != 'off' ? 'https://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] : 'http://'.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']."".str_replace(basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']), "", $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']);
defined('BASEURL') || define('BASEURL',$protocol);

In app/Config/App.php

public $baseURL = BASEURL;

Go to app/Config/Constants.php and open it in your IDE. Then place this below code in the end of your file.

if ( (! empty($_SERVER['REQUEST_SCHEME']) && $_SERVER['REQUEST_SCHEME'] == 'https') ||
     (! empty($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS'] == 'on') ||
     (! empty($_SERVER['SERVER_PORT']) && $_SERVER['SERVER_PORT'] == '443') ) {
    $protocole = 'https://';
} else {
    $protocole = 'http://';
}

$host = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . '/';
$project = explode('/', $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
$baseurl = $protocole . $host . $project[1];
$myappBaseUrl = $baseurl.'/';
defined('BASESEURL') || define('BASESEURL',$myappBaseUrl);

and now open app/Config/App.php and replace This

public $baseURL = 'http://localhost:8080/';

with

public $baseURL = BASESEURL;
