Force redirect http to https using SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT = True

[BuildWithLal]

From Django docs on SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT

If True, the SecurityMiddleware redirects all non-HTTPS requests to HTTPS 

i have added django.middleware.security.SecurityMiddleware to MIDDLEWARE list in settings.py

Using SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT = True with runsslserver doesn't redirect all http traffic to https, even the server is not gonna hit from browser/client when try with http

This issue is asked and well described here on stackoverflow

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41221890/redirect-http-to-https-in-django-using-sslserver

Django==2.0
Python==3.6
django-sslserver==0.20

How is it going now

I also encountered the same problem

Worked for me.

In addition to SECURE_SSL_REDIRECT=True in settings.py as mentioned, you need both

1. runsslserver on port 443
2. runserver on port 80

To have a service listening on 80 and do the redirect.
