How to redirect HTTP requests to HTTPS¶

Since 1.4.19 the following should work. For older versions check the history of this page... or just update, srsly.

Example 1 - redirect everything¶

$HTTP["scheme"] == "http" {
    # capture vhost name with regex conditiona -> %1 in redirect pattern
    # must be the most inner block to the redirect rule
    $HTTP["host"] =~ ".*" {
        url.redirect = (".*" => "https://%1$0")
    }
}

Example 2 - specific url¶

$HTTP["scheme"] == "http" {
    $HTTP["host"] =~ ".*" {
        url.redirect = ("^/phpmyadmin/.*" => "https://%1$0")
    }
}

Example 3 - only for specific vhost and url¶

$HTTP["scheme"] == "http" {
    $HTTP["host"] == "sth.example.com" {
            url.redirect = ("^/phpmyadmin/.*" => "https://sth.example.com$0")
    }
}

Further stuff¶

Also works the other way round (https -> http) with if $HTTP["scheme"] == "https"
