Listen to a http or https port and redirect ("HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently") to '<scheme>://<host>' while preserving the path and query string.
Usage: ./redirect [options]
options:
-bind bind-to port. (default: :80)
-scheme redirect-to http or https. (default: https)
-host redirect-to host.
-port redirect-to port.
--debug verbose output. (default: false)
--help print usage. (default: false)
The recommended deployment is to run this as a container. For example, to redirect all http://<foobar>/hello/world traffic to https://polyverse.io, you would launch the container with:
$ docker run -d -p 80:80 polyverse/redirect -bind=:80 -scheme=https
Any pings to http://hostname/url?query=string will get redirected to https://hostname/url?query=string (regardless of hostname.) This mode is particularly useful when running just a dumb-redirect to the HTTPS version of the SAME URL for multi-host endpoints (say you're running a server that can be accessed as localhost AND a different name .)
$ docker run -d -p 80:80 polyverse/redirect -bind=:80 -host=polyverse.io -scheme=https
This will redirect ALL traffic hitting the endpoint to the polyverse.io hostname:
- http://localhost/foo -> https://polyverse.io/foo
- http://localhost:5601/foo -> https://polyverse.io:5601/foo
$ docker run -d -p 80:80 polyverse/redirect -bind=:80 -host=polyverse.io -scheme=https
This will redirect ALL traffic hitting the endpoint to the polyverse.io hostname:
- http://localhost/foo -> https://polyverse.io/foo
- http://localhost:5601/foo -> https://polyverse.io:5601/foo
This is where it all comes together. Say you have a bunch of domain names (polyverse-security.org, polyverse.io, www.polyverse.io, polyverse.com, polyverse.org, etc.) that you want to support through your website. And you want ALL these stuff to be redirected to one canonical base.
$ docker run -d -p 80:80 polyverse/redirect -bind=:80 -host=polyverse.io -port=80 -scheme=https
This will redirect ALL traffic hitting the endpoint to the polyverse.io hostname:
