A simple helper to aid with determining sub domain names, root domains and protocols

This helper will aid in determining sub domain names, root domains and protocols (http / https) with optional Laravel integration.

Installation:

Require this package in your composer.json and update composer. This will download the package and all the dependencies:

"toxic-lemurs/domain-helper": "1.*"

Alternatively you can require this through composer via the command line:

$ composer require toxic-lemurs/domain-helper

Laravel 5.x:

Run a composer update and add the following Service Provider in your config/app.php

ToxicLemurs\DomainHelper\DomainHelperServiceProvider::class,

You can make use of the Facade feature in Laravel:

'DomainHelper' => ToxicLemurs\DomainHelper\Facades\DomainHelper::class,

Getting started and usage:

You can use the Facade in Laravel to call various methods on this helper:

DomainHelper::getDomainName();

Or you can instantiate an instance of the Domain Helper class:

$domainHelper = new \ToxicLemurs\DomainHelper\DomainHelper();
$domainHelper->getDomainName();

You can override the Server Name as returned by HTTP_HOST:

$domainHelper = new \ToxicLemurs\DomainHelper\DomainHelper();
$domainHelper->setServerName('foo.example.com');
$domainHelper->getDomainName();

To get the sub domain name(s):

$domainHelper = new \ToxicLemurs\DomainHelper\DomainHelper();
$domainHelper->getSubDomainNames();

OR

DomainHelper::getSubDomainNames();

You can either get a string or an array result back for the sub domains:

$domainHelper = new \ToxicLemurs\DomainHelper\DomainHelper();
$domainHelper->setServerName('foo.bar.example.com');
$domainHelper->getSubDomainNames(true);
        
OR

DomainHelper::getSubDomainNames(true);

Will return:
     
    array:2 [
        0 => "foo"
        1 => "bar"
    ]

You can check if the domain you are currently on is the root domain:

$domainHelper = new \ToxicLemurs\DomainHelper\DomainHelper();
$domainHelper->isRoot();

OR

DomainHelper::isRoot();

You can get the current request protocol:

$domainHelper = new \ToxicLemurs\DomainHelper\DomainHelper();
$domainHelper->getProtocol();

OR

DomainHelper::getProtocol();
