Honor Host header when connecting to IPs

davecheney / httpstat

It's like curl -v, with colours.

Fixes #36

I wonder if this is a bridge too far, the feature is quite esoteric, and its usage is even more so. I'm leaning towards saying No to this one.

Let's try this again after getting some sleep. :wink:

@davecheney at work I'm often doing testing against singular IPs, while passing in a Host header:

curl -IH 'Host: blah.work.tld' http://<TEST_IP>/

I'd replace my usage with httpstat if it supported it.

@moorereason maybe we can add this to the top of the .travis.yml file:

addons:
  apt:
    packages:
    - dnsutils

You should then have dig.

@theckman, thanks for the addons info. Fixed. :+1:
