Question

I am struggling with this one.. I want to get the path between hostname and filename:

http://host.com/this/is/what/i/want/file.jpg

Method should return “this/is/what/i/want”.

I was looking at the URL module but can’t find the right property.

url.parse(host).pathname

returns the whole path but with the filename :(.

Thanks in advance,

You can do substring with the full pathname info you have

var pathname = url.parse(host).pathname;
pathname = pathnam.substring(0,pathname.lastIndexOf("/"));
