This wget recipe shows you how to make wget print the server response to stdout instead of saving it to a file. To do that, pass a single dash - to the -O flag.
Print the Response to Stdout
wget -O - https://google.com
This recipe uses the -O flag and tells wget to write the output to stdout instead of saving it to a file. This is handy when you want to pipe the result into another command or just peek at the response.
