Virtual Host Redirector sets up permanent redirects on your domain names. For example, you could configure this to allow visitors to your domain service1.example.com to be redirected to http://example.com:9000.
Docker is supported, with a Docker image built for both x86/x64 and ARM systems.
Setup a JSON file where the key is the host and the value is the full path to redirect to. For example (as in rules.example.json):
{
"service1.example.com" : "http://example.com:9000",
"service2.example.com" : "http://example.com/something"
}
If using Docker, this file must be called rules.json and be within a directory mapped to /config in the container.
Setup DNS records for the hostnames setup above to point to the server running virtual-host-redirector.
- Install NodeJS on your system.
- Install dependencies by running
npm install. - Run with
node server [rules config path] [port (default 80)]. e.g.:node server ~/redirector-config/rules.json 80
Building
Use docker build -t jordancrawford/virtual-host-redirector .
Running
Use docker run -d -v [local config directory]:/config -p [host port]:80 --name virtual-host-redirector jordancrawford/virtual-host-redirector
