Net/http and redirects

Ruby
1

Hello,

I wrote this piece of code: http://pastebin.com/m138ec5e4

I was looking at the examples posted on:

The problem seems to be that google is somehow redirecting and net
http isn’t following. Is this known behaviour? If so is there a way
around it?

Thank you,

Jayanth

The documentation for Net::HTTP
(http://www.ruby-doc.org/stdlib/libdoc/net/http/rdoc/index.html) has a
section on following redirects. That might be of interest.

If you want automatic following of redirects, perhaps you want the
httpclient gem rather than Net::HTTP directly. With Net::HTTP, you’d
have to recognize and follow the redirect explicitly.
