--follow does not show redirects

[vartec]

I've expected http --follow to act in similar fashion as curl -i -L, however difference is that curl does show headers of all intermediate steps, httpie does not.

Expected result (standard post-redirect-get form):

HTTP/1.1 100 Continue

HTTP/1.1 303 See Other
Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
Date: Fri, 29 Nov 2013 11:50:59 GMT

HTTP/1.1 200 OK

{"payload": "something"}

Actual result:

Content-Encoding: gzip
Content-Length: 414
Content-Type: application/json

As of June 2014, it still does not show redirects. Is this being worked upon?

[tylercrompton]

It was already completed, but my commits were never pulled.

[ralphschindler]

👍

[rockymadden]

Looking for this as well. Currently using a custom bash function to accommodate.

[ian-rose]

This would be very useful functionality to have.

[tylercrompton]

I'll redo this if @jakubroztocil would review the changes. But after a year, there were too many conflicts and it didn't seem like it would ever get reviewed, so I just deleted what I did.

[dstarmanhr]

this would be a very useful feature to have.

[jlazic]

+1 for this feature.

[sgoblin]

Can you give a brief summary of how you implemented this, @tylercrompton ?

[jcdevil]

+1 for that feature. Thanks ;)

[heyvito]

+1 for that.

@jkbrzt was --show-redirects merged? I've updated to 0.9.6 and I get "http: error: unrecognized arguments: --show-redirects"..

EDIT: Nevermind, I've looked into cli.py's history and found that it was replaced with --all.

[jkbrzt]

@Wirone yes, it's called --all — https://github.com/jkbrzt/httpie#viewing-intermediary-requests-responses

[Remzi1993]

@jakubroztocil --all doesn't work for me, I try to do: http --all -v :3000
