req.originalUrl

req.url is not a native Express property, it is inherited from Node’s http module.

This property is much like req.url; however, it retains the original request URL, allowing you to rewrite req.url freely for internal routing purposes. For example, the “mounting” feature of app.use() will rewrite req.url to strip the mount point.

// GET /search?q=something
req.originalUrl
// => "/search?q=something"
