PHP URL Helper + Laravel Facade

An easy-to-use PHP helper (and Laravel Facade) to parse out different parts of a URL

Requirements

• PHP 8.1+

Usage

Install

composer require geoffreyrose/url-helper

With Plain PHP

use UrlHelper\UrlHelper;

...

$urlHelper = new UrlHelper();

With Laravel Facade

Laravel uses Package Auto-Discovery, which doesn't require you to manually add the ServiceProvider and Facade.

$rootHostname = URLHelper::getRootHostname('https://github.com/geoffreyrose/url-helper/')
