Function hostname

pub fn hostname() -> Result<OsString>
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (gethostname #135142)

Returns the system hostname.

This can error out in platform-specific error cases; for example, uefi and wasm, where hostnames aren’t supported.

Underlying system calls

Platform System call
UNIX gethostname
Windows GetHostNameW

Note that platform-specific behavior may change in the future.
