I am using the Volley framework in a project where I always need to handle the redirects myself to handle the headers.

How redirects are handled depends right now o

Answer 1

I think A HttpStack implementation for Volley that uses OkHttp as its transport is the best solution

RequestQueue queue = Volley.newRequestQueue(this);

Network network = new BasicNetwork(new OkHttpStack());
RequestQueue queue = new RequestQueue(new DiskBasedCache(new File(getCacheDir(), "volley")), network);
queue.start();

OkHttpStack class:

public class OkHttpStack extends HurlStack {
private final OkHttpClient client;

public OkHttpStack() {
this(new OkHttpClient());
}

public OkHttpStack(OkHttpClient client) {
if (client == null) {
throw new NullPointerException("Client must not be null.");
}
this.client = client;
}

@Override protected HttpURLConnection createConnection(URL url) throws IOException {
return client.open(url);
}
}

Update: if you are using new version of okhttp stack then use

public class OkHttpStack extends HurlStack {
    private final OkUrlFactory mFactory;

    public OkHttpStack() {
        this(new OkHttpClient());
    }

    public OkHttpStack(OkHttpClient client) {
        if (client == null) {
            throw new NullPointerException("Client must not be null.");
        }
        mFactory = new OkUrlFactory(client);
    }

    @Override
    protected HttpURLConnection createConnection(URL url) throws IOException {
       return mFactory.open(url);
    }
}
