How can I get the absolute URL with domain in Django

Question

How can I get the full/absolute URL (e.g. https://example.com/some/path) in Django without the Sites module? I shouldn't need to query my DB to snag the URL!

Hello @kartik,

Use handy request.build_absolute_uri() method on request, pass it the relative url and it'll give you full one.

By default, the absolute URL for request.get_full_path() is returned, but you can pass it a relative URL as the first argument to convert it to an absolute URL.

Hope it helps!!
Thank you!
