instance method

URI::Generic#hostname=

(::String? v) -> ::String?
hostname=(v)

Sets the host part of the URI as the argument with brackets for IPv6 addresses.

This method is the same as URI::Generic#host= except the argument can be a bare IPv6 address.

Example
uri = URI("http://foo/bar")
uri.hostname = "::1"
uri.to_s  #=> "http://[::1]/bar"

If the argument seems to be an IPv6 address, it is wrapped with brackets.
