How to Get Http Hostname in Laravel

Recently, while working on my Laravel 10 application, I encountered the need to retrieve the hostname. Despite going through the entire documentation on requests, I couldn't pinpoint where to obtain the hostname in my controller.

I discovered a solution for this challenge. You can effortlessly obtain the HTTP hostname from the request object using two helpful methods: getHttpHost() and getHost(). These methods not only retrieve the domain name but also allow you to obtain subdomain names effortlessly.
