Curl to return http status code along with the response

Question

I use curl to get http headers to find http status code and also return response. I get the http headers with the command

curl -I http://localhost
         


        

Answer 1

The -i option is the one that you want:

curl -i http://localhost

-i, --include Include protocol headers in the output (H/F)

Alternatively you can use the verbose option:

curl -v http://localhost

-v, --verbose Make the operation more talkative
