Rails如何遵循HTTParty GET请求中的重定向

Question

I am using httparty to send a get request and then trying to follow the redirect:

get 'https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth'

how can i follow the redirect using HTTParty?

sorry if this have been asked before, but i could not find the answer anywhere.

Thanks

Answer 1

Probably it's not needed now, but for someone who need.

From documentation , there is special option for automatically redirects

follow_redirects(value = true) ⇒ Object

Proceed to the location header when an HTTP response dictates a redirect. Redirects are always followed by default.

So you can use this options like that:

HTTParty.get('http://google.com', follow_redirects: true)

Answer 2

Guessing this is a little out of date now, what with the question being about a month old... but my understanding of the HTTParty docs is that it should automatically follow redirects, unless you set the no_follow flag. I haven't successfully tested it though (I'm a total HTTParty n00b and stumbled on this trying to find an answer to my own problem, d'oh...)

If that doesn't work, you could always read the header directly and parse the redirect manually. I've done that in Javascript AJAX requests before, it is not difficult. But you shouldn't have to do that with HTTParty.
