Get the domain part of an URL string?

Question

I have an NSString with an URL, in this way:

http://someurl.com/something 

How would I get someurl.com only? I've already tried substringToIndex with no luck :(

Thanks in advance :)

Answer 1

Objective-C

NSString* urlString = @"http://someurl.com/something"; NSURL* url = [NSURL URLWithString:urlString]; NSString* domain = [url host]; 

Swift 2

var urlString = "http://someurl.com/something" var url = NSURL(string: urlString) var domain = url?.host 

Swift 3+

var urlString = "http://someurl.com/something" var url = URL(string: urlString) var domain = url?.host 

Answer 2

Use

[[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://someurl.com/something"] host]
