             Summary: Protocol-okhttp HttpResponse: HTTP header metadata lookup should be case-insensitive
                 Key: NUTCH-3002
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NUTCH-3002
             Project: Nutch
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: metadata, plugin, protocol
    Affects Versions: 1.19
            Reporter: Sebastian Nagel
             Fix For: 1.20


Lookup of HTTP headers in the class HttpResponse should be case-insensitive - for example, any "Location" header should be returned independent from the casing sent by the sender.
While protocol-http uses the class SpellCheckedMetadata which provides case-insensitive lookups (as part of the spell-checking functionality), protocol-okhttp relies on the class Metadata which stores the metadata values case-sensitive.

It's a good question, whether we still need to spell-check HTTP headers. However, case-insensitive look-ups are definitely required. Especially, since HTTP header names are case-insensitive in HTTP/2.
