Hostname information in the feign Logger

Question

I am using feign clients in spring-cloud environment with the Eureka discovery service and implementing a custom feign logger to be able to log some usefull request and response information. For that I have extended feign.Logger class and overriden it's methods.

So far so good, but I am interested in logging hostname the request was forwarded to. Is there a way to get this information inside the feign.Logger?

Have you tried accessing the `Request` from `Logger.logRequest()`? — spencergibb, Apr 14 '17 at 16:22
Yes, I've tried that. `Request` object has `url` field, but the hostname part in that URL equals to the service name I specified in the `@FeingClient` `name` field. — Aleksandr Erokhin, Apr 14 '17 at 16:34

It was confirmed by @spencergibb that there is no way to get hostname in the feign Logger.

To be clear on your questions you need to get domain which request is hitting. Then you can get it by manipulating the request.url() and get the sub string from this before uri path.
