Not sure why you convert the "publish" address to a string, in Java you can find the current transport port with
// find node address NodesInfoRequest nodesInfoRequest = new NodesInfoRequest().transport(true); NodesInfoResponse response = client.admin().cluster().nodesInfo(nodesInfoRequest).actionGet(); Object obj = response.iterator().next().getTransport().getAddress().publishAddress(); if (obj instanceof InetSocketTransportAddress) { InetSocketTransportAddress address = (InetSocketTransportAddress) obj; // ... process host and port from address } if (obj instanceof LocalTransportAddress) { LocalTransportAddress address = (LocalTransportAddress) obj; // .... process local address, no host/port } which is, I admit, still not pretty. Note, if you have a node set to "local(true)", there is no host/port, but a LocalTransportAddress.
