Access Guzzle Response from Goutte - php

Question

I'm trying to access to the Guzzle Response object from Goutte. Because that object has nice methods that i want to use. getEffectiveUrl for example.
As far as i can see there is no way doing it without hacking the code.
Or without accessing the response object, is there a way to get the last redirected url froum goutte?

Answer 1

A little late, but:
If you are only interested in getting the URL you were last redirected to, you could simply do
$client = new Goutte\Client();
$crawler = $client->request('GET', 'http://www.example.com');
$url = $client->getHistory()->current()->getUri();
EDIT:
But, extending Goutte to serve your needs is fairly easy. All you need is to override the createResponse() method and store the GuzzleResponse
namespace Your\Name\Space;
class Client extends \Goutte\Client
{
protected $guzzleResponse;
protected function createResponse(\Guzzle\Http\Message\Response $response)
{
$this->guzzleResponse = $response;
return parent::createResponse($response);
}
/**
* #return \Guzzle\Http\Message\Response
*/
public function getGuzzleResponse()
{
return $this->guzzleResponse;
}
}
Then you can access the response object as desired
$client = new Your\Name\Space\Client();
$crawler = $client->request('GET', 'http://localhost/redirect');
$response = $client->getGuzzleResponse();
echo $response->getEffectiveUrl();
