simple-redirect

A simple container to redirect traffic to another server, based on nginx:mainline-alpine.

I built this to use inside a kubernetes cluster to route www.example.com/<path> to example.com/<path>

Simple Redirect requires a single environment variable REDIRECT_SERVER which is the server to redirect to. The original scheme and path of the request are maintained.
