Consider implementing no-follow-redirect

[athrunsun]

Hi,

This might be a dumb question but is there any way or any settings I can use to turn off automatically following redirect?

Hi,

Sorry, Hitchhiker doesn't support no-follow-redirect yet. it's easy to support it, i'll implement it in v0.5.
One thing i wonder is which level this setting should be: request, collection or project.
What do you think?

Thanks,

Hey @brookshi ,

Thanks for your feedback.

For simplicity I think we can put it at global level, in the global settings. Does this sound good to you?

[brookshi]

Does global mean project level? Sometimes there are different Collections in a project with different business logic, project level setting may not suitable for this case. What about Collection level, it's between Project and Request， could meet most of requirements.

@brookshi Actually I mean for the whole hitchhiker app, like postman.

[brookshi]

Get it. But Hitchhiker is created for team which is different from Postman, a global request setting doesn't seem to make sense for multiple projects.

@brookshi OK, if that is the case, go ahead with collection level. Thanks!

[brookshi]

Thank you for understanding. 😄

@brookshi No, don't thank me. I should thank you for accepting this feature request. 😃

fixed, a new option in Collection's menu named Request Follow Redirect, default is false.
