About

Why spin up an nginx server on a pod if you can run a standalone application to return your 301/307 redirects?

Getting Started

# run directly
go run main.go
# or build and run
go build ./... && ./redirector
# docker!
docker run -e URL=https://artero.dev wwmoraes/redirector

This server was made with love and KISS principles in mind 🖤

Usage

A single instance will run both HTTP and HTTPS servers in parallel, given that you provided valid certificate files for TLS. If not, it'll fail to start the secure one, but will still run the HTTP one.

All configurations are done using environment variables:

Variable Name	Default Value	Description
URL		destination URL redirect to, e.g. https://artero.dev
HTTP_HOST		HTTP server host
HTTP_PORT	8080	HTTP server port
HTTPS_HOST		HTTPS server host
HTTPS_PORT	8081	HTTPS server port
KEY_FILE		private key path for the URL certificate
KEY		base64-encoded private key contents for the URL certificate
CERT_FILE		public key path for the URL certificate (must be the full chain if CA-signed)
CERT		base64-encoded public key contents for the URL certificate (must be the full chain if CA-signed)

Empty host equals 0.0.0.0, i.e. all interfaces will be bound.
