Get Base Url within ZF2 Controller
Published on November 15, 2015 by Bo Andersen
Getting the base url of a request in Zend Framework 2 is quite simple. Because you are probably extending the AbstractActionController class, you get some functionality out of the box, including easily accessing the current request. From the request, one can get the URI, which exposes various methods for different parts of the URI. In this case, we need the scheme as well as the host name, as in the below example.
public function indexAction()
{
$uri = $this->getRequest()->getUri();
$baseUrl = sprintf('%s://%s', $uri->getScheme(), $uri->getHost());
}That’s all it takes! Thank you for reading.
