Req OriginalUrl

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 <a href="#app.use">app.use()</a> will rewrite req.url to strip the mount point.

// GET /search?q=something
console.log(req.originalUrl)
// => "/search?q=something"
