NAME

HTTP::Tiny::PreserveHostHeader - Preserve Host header on requests

SYNOPSIS

    use HTTP::Tiny::PreserveHostHeader;

    my $response = HTTP::Tiny::PreserveHostHeader->new->get(
        'http://example.com', {
            headers => {
                Host => 'example.net',
            }
        }
    );

DESCRIPTION

This module extends HTTP::Tiny and allows to preserve original Host header from HTTP request.

The HTTP::Tiny is strictly compatible with HTTP 1.1 spec, section 14.23:

    The Host field value MUST represent the naming authority of the origin server or gateway given by the original URL.

It means that HTTP::Tiny always rewrite Host header to the value taken from URL.

Some non-standard HTTP clients, such as reverse HTTP proxy, need to override Host header to other value.
