Usage in Deno
import { URL } from "node:url";
Gets and sets the port portion of the URL.
The port value may be a number or a string containing a number in the range 0 to 65535 (inclusive). Setting the value to the default port of the URL objects given protocol will
result in the port value becoming
the empty string ('').
The port value can be an empty string in which case the port depends on the protocol/scheme:
Upon assigning a value to the port, the value will first be converted to a
string using .toString().
If that string is invalid but it begins with a number, the leading number is
assigned to port.
If the number lies outside the range denoted above, it is ignored.
const myURL = new URL('https://example.org:8888');
console.log(myURL.port);
// Prints 8888
// Default ports are automatically transformed to the empty string
// (HTTPS protocol's default port is 443)
myURL.port = '443';
console.log(myURL.port);
// Prints the empty string
console.log(myURL.href);
// Prints https://example.org/
myURL.port = 1234;
console.log(myURL.port);
// Prints 1234
console.log(myURL.href);
// Prints https://example.org:1234/
// Completely invalid port strings are ignored
myURL.port = 'abcd';
console.log(myURL.port);
// Prints 1234
// Leading numbers are treated as a port number
myURL.port = '5678abcd';
console.log(myURL.port);
// Prints 5678
// Non-integers are truncated
myURL.port = 1234.5678;
console.log(myURL.port);
// Prints 1234
// Out-of-range numbers which are not represented in scientific notation
// will be ignored.
myURL.port = 1e10; // 10000000000, will be range-checked as described below
console.log(myURL.port);
// Prints 1234
Numbers which contain a decimal point, such as floating-point numbers or numbers in scientific notation, are not an exception to this rule. Leading numbers up to the decimal point will be set as the URL's port, assuming they are valid:
myURL.port = 4.567e21;
console.log(myURL.port);
// Prints 4 (because it is the leading number in the string '4.567e21')
