Setting User-Agent Header in Scala with Databinders Dispatch Library

Question

Does anyone know how to do this?

Answer 1

You need to append your request with the header info, using the <:< operator. Like this :

url("http://example.com") <:< Map("User-Agent" -> "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 9.0; Windows NT 6.1; Win64; x64; Trident/5.0)") 

Answer 2

Just from reading the source, it looks like you're supposed to call http.client.params.setParameter("User-Agent","Cowbells") on your Http object. Have you tried this?

Answer 3

This will work as well:

url("http://example.com").addHeader("User-Agent", "Mozilla...")
