Description
Concise explanation of the problem
Provided example doesn't work anymore, returns an error "Request failed. Status code: 301."
The provided url leads to http : http.get('http://nodejs.org/dist/index.json', (res) => {
but said resource get automatically redirected to it's https twin.
In the example, anything other than 200 is thrown away if (statusCode !== 200)
You need to set a new resource in http only (no redirection towards https) as the http module can't handle the https protocol ^^.
Cheers
