Flag/option to force DNS resolution #151

Closed jakdept closed 3 years ago

jakdept commented 3 years ago

It'd be nice to be able to shoot httpstat at a specific IP address, instead of the DNS resolution target (thus overriding DNS resolution).

Is this something that already exists and I'm just missing it?

You should be able to do httpstat -H "Host: blah.com" https://1.2.3.4/

@jakdept do you want to try that. The alternative may be adding something like curl’s —resolve flag

I did not think of manually setting a Host: header at command line, but that does work when I tried it.

Further, digging through net/http and crypto/tls they look to check for a Host: header if other methods for setting the server name are not there before connecting, so that seems like it should work in all cases.
