Chef remote_file set maximum number of re-directions to zero I am trying to implement the below wget download command using chef remote_file resource. But I couldn't find a way to avoid the re-directions. The URL that I am trying to access may sometimes be redirected to my ISP bill reminder page. And chef remote_file resource downloads this bill reminder HTML page as a zip file.

wget -N  --max-redirect=0 http://www.someurl.com/file.zip

The chef recipe resource is 

remote_file "#{node['download-zip-path']}/#{zip}" do
    source "http://www.someurl.com/#{zip}"
    action :create
    notifies :run, 'execute[unzip_file]', :delayed
end


The --max-redirect=0 flag in wget makes sure that there isn't any redirection to ISP page. I can achieve the same using ruby's open-uri or execute command resource but is there any native chef way to achieve this no/zero re-direction?
Found out that the remote_file resource couldn't handle redirects. Hence I had to write a ruby_block resource that makes use of 'Down' gem.

ruby_block 'download_openvpn_zip' do
    block do 
        attempt = 2
        begin
            retries ||= 0
            tempfile = Down::NetHttp.download("http://www.someurl.com/#{zip},max_redirects: 0)
            FileUtils.mv tempfile.path, "#{node['openvpn-conf-path']}/#{tempfile.original_filename}"
        rescue Down::TooManyRedirects =&gt; e
            puts "\n \t ERROR: #{e.message}"
            retry if (retries += 1) &lt; 1
        end 
    end
    action :run
    notifies :run, 'execute[unzip_file]', :delayed
end
