verbose mode did not print all the body text of requests about hurl HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi @kaala

This is the intended design of --verbose option. You can use --very-verbose to see all response bodies on standard error.

Wether you use or not --verbose/--very-verbose, the last response body is printed on standard output (once again by design).

ok, then. could you tell me more about the reason behind this design?

Sure, the idea is to be able to chain request to get data. The typical use case is getting data behind a login:

POST http://foo.com/login
[FormParams]
username: bob
password: secret
HTTP 302

GET http://foo.com/protected
HTTP 200

One logged, you get the response of the protected resources.

If you want intermediary resources, you can use an [Options] section :

GET https://foo.com
[Options]
# Save the response to an intermediary file
output: foo.bin

GET https://bar.com
[Options]
# Display response to standard output
output: -

Or you can write a request by file and then you will get all responses on standard output.

$ hurl foo.hurl bar.hurl baz.hurl

If you want to just test some requests and are not interested with the response, you can use --test:

$ hurl --test *.hurl

I'm closing the issue, feel free to open a discussion or proposed an issue for any new feature!
