Verbose mode
reQ includes a verbose mode which displays the raw HTTP requests & responses. This can be useful for debugging purposes, to view the full headers on both the request & response.
To enable this mode, set .req.VERBOSE before making the requests. The value
should be the handle to which output should be written (e.g. 1 for stdout,
2 for stderr).
Examples
An example including HTTP redirects i.e. multiple requests & responses, and setting .req.VERBOSE:1 within q session:
