How do I get the different parts of a Flask request's url?

I want to detect if the request came from the localhost:5000 or foo.herokuapp.com host and what path was requested. How do I get this information about a Flask request?
You can examine the url through several Request fields: Imagine your application is listening on the following application root: http://www.example.com/myapplication And a user requests the following URI: http://www.example.com/myapplication/foo/page.html?x=y In this case the values of the above mentioned attributes would be the following: path /foo/page.html full_path /foo/page.html?x=y script_root /myapplication base_url http://www.example.com/myapplication/foo/page.html url http://www.example.com/myapplication/foo/page.html?x=y url_root http://www.example.com/myapplication/ You can easily extract the host part with the appropriate splits. An example of using this: from flask import request @app.route('/') def index(): return request.base_url
