I have a website deployed in Kubernetes and ingress controller working.
I need to redirect my old subdomain to the new subdomain(old.example.com -> new.example.com).
I made some research and found that I have to use the annotation:
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/rewrite-target
my ingress file:
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
name: rancher-ing
namespace: test
annotations:
kubernetes.io/ingress.class: "nginx"
cert-manager.io/cluster-issuer: letsencrypt-prod
kubernetes.io/tls-acme: "true"
ingress.kubernetes.io/secure-backends: "true"
ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect: "true"
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/rewrite-target: /$1
spec:
tls:
- hosts:
- new.example.com
secretName: new.example.com
rules:
- host: new.example.com
http:
paths:
- path: /
pathType: Prefix
backend:
service:
name: rancher-logo-service
port:
number: 80
- host: old.example.com
http:
paths:
- path: /
pathType: Prefix
backend:
service:
name: rancher-logo-service
port:
number: 80
i created an ingress controller config for the new url. and updated the old config into this:
apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
name: rancher-ing-redirect
namespace: test
annotations:
kubernetes.io/ingress.class: "nginx"
cert-manager.io/cluster-issuer: letsencrypt-prod
kubernetes.io/tls-acme: "true"
ingress.kubernetes.io/secure-backends: "true"
ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect: "true"
nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/rewrite-target: https://new.example.com/
spec:
rules:
- host: old.example.com
http:
paths:
- path: /
pathType: Prefix
backend:
service:
name: rancher-logo-service
port:
number: 80
