micro-redirect

A tiny Node.js microservice to redirect users to a different location.

Deployment

Your own micro-redirect is one click away:

Deploy to now

You can also deploy with a single command from the terminal (assuming you have now installed):

now -e REDIRECT_URL=mypage.com withspectrum/micro-redirect

Usage

Set the REDIRECT_URL environment variable to the page you want to redirect to, then send your users to your micro-redirect instance.

For example:

now -e REDIRECT_URL=home.com withspectrum/micro-redirect
<a href="mymicroredirect.com">Go to home</a>

Development

git clone git@github.com:withspectrum/micro-redirect.git
npm run dev

The server will then be listening at localhost:3000.

Updating

The master branch of this repository is what you will be deploying. To update to a new version with potential bugfixes, all you have to do is run the now command again and change the URL you call in your app! 👌
