I'm using httparty to do a GET request to a certain website. I need the response cookies in order to successfully make a POST request to login.
rest_client makes it really easy, all I have to do is:
get_request = RestClient.get('<REDACTED>')
response_cookies = get_request.cookies
# =>
{
"sessiontype"=>"mpb",
"aac"=>"741F9EC20A4C422369F7564445611591",
"Expires"=>"Sun",
"Path"=>"%2F",
"Domain"=>"<REDACTED>",
"internetbankierenmi"=>"1559079104.20480.0000",
"TSdb640d"=>"d17ca2538ee2215b647c3466d4b06da7ec33c7a21dc7217953d3ffe7d4efbe89959deba9debace3f579e71c9e27e0b6b1ea2c663"
}
But I want to do the same with httparty. So my question is how do I view/access the response cookies from a GET request in httparty?
Since cookies
are part of the response header, you can access them from the response header in httparty.
require 'httparty'
r = HTTParty.get('<REDACTED>')
r.headers
