In node.js How do I get the protocol of a request object?

Question

const URL = require('url').URL;
const myURL = new URL('https://example.org/foo');

console.log(myURL.href);     // https://example.org/foo
console.log(myURL.protocol); // https:
console.log(myURL.hostname); // example.org
console.log(myURL.pathname); // /foo

But how do I get it for request url that user made to the server???

Actually it's request.protocol, what I was looking for. But thanks for your concern I appreciate it. — Left Over, Feb 16 '17 at 05:01
Node is developed for http... So requests handled by your node app are anyways going to be http (or https)... — Sandesh K, Feb 16 '17 at 05:19

Simply by doing request.protocol like

    exports.nameOfFunction = function(request, response){
    var proto = request.protocol;
    console.log(proto);
}
