Library with command line arguments always returns 301

[GitCat3]

I have the following code:

use curl::easy::Easy;
use std::env::args;

fn main() {
    let mut easy = Easy::new();
    let args: Vec<String> = args().collect();
    easy.url(&args[1]).unwrap();
    easy.perform().unwrap();
    println!("{}", easy.response_code().unwrap());
}

but when I run it no matter which website I pass into the command line, it always returns 301 for some reason. Is this an issue or did I do something wrong? Thanks!

UPDATE: I tried changing the code back by commenting out the lines that get command line arguments, and it still returned 301 after that for some reason.

Curl does not follow redirects by default. You'll need to include easy.follow_location(true) to enable it.

But shouldn't websites such as google.com not be saying I need to redirect anyway?

google.com redirects to www.google.com. You can test these things on the command-line with curl -v https://google.com/.

thanks, I was dumb.
