I can parse are HTTP response of one of the intial calls and save that in the state but there must be another way to get the URL?

I am using the npm 'rest' library and want to specify a different port but I do not know the path on which machine the server will be installed so I need the server's url.

Solution

window.location.hostname

location is a property on the window object with a bunch of information, you can get the url with window.location.href

You can get the hostname with window.location.hostname
