Why can't I get the correct HTTP request method

[XU LIU]

I made a demo, but there are two questions：

1. Whether the HTTP request method is GET or POST, all I get is GET, why?

2. Why is the status code of the http response 301

demo

import cherrypy


class Hello:
    @cherrypy.expose
    def index(self):
        print(cherrypy.request.method)
        return 'hello'


class App:

    def __init__(self):
        self.hello = Hello()

    @cherrypy.expose
    def index(self):
        return 'index'


cherrypy.quickstart(App(), '/api')

log

1. How do you know you actually send POST requests? It might be that you're misusing the client.

2. As for the redirect, it happens because your request was lacking a trailing slash.

Thank you. 

I found the cause of the first problem. Lacking a trialing slash, the redirect happen, which caused all I got is GET.
