How to grep the output of cURL?

By
curl writes the output to stderr, so redirect that and also suppress the progress: curl - v -- silent https :// google . com / 2 >& 1 | grep expire The reason why  curl  writes the information to stderr is so you can do: curl <url> | someprgram  without that information clobbering the input of  someprogram It is possible to use  --stderr -  as parameter, to redirect the output from stderr (default) to stdout. With this option you also should use  --silent  to suppress the progress bar. $ curl - v -- silent https :// google . com / -- stderr - | grep expire * expire date : 2015 - 09 - 01 00 : 00 : 00 GMT
