express-seo-redirects

Simple config based 301/302 redirects for express.

Install

npm install express-seo-redirects --save

Usage

Add the middleware to your express application before all other routes.

var express = require('express');
var app = express();
var redirects = require('express-seo-redirects');

// add middleware with relative path to redirect.json file
app.use(redirects('./redirects.json'));

// standard express route
app.get('/', function(req, res) {
    res.send('Hello world!');
});

Create a redirects.json file in the root of your project, with a list of redirects:

[
    { "status": 301, "from": "/mobile-barcode-scanner", "to": "/docs/getting-started/mobile" },
    { "status": 301, "from": "/mobile-data-capture-platform", "to": "/" },
    { "status": 301, "from": "/plans", "to": "/pricing" },
    { "status": 301, "from": "/plans-new", "to": "/pricing" }
]

Each redirect can have 3 parameters:

PropertyTypeRequiredDescription
fromstring:heavy_check_mark:Relative URL of incoming request
tostring:heavy_check_mark:Destination URL
statusintegerHTTP response code (302 if not provided)

QueryStrings are ignored by default, to match on path and query string pass app.use(redirects('./redirects.json', true)); as the second param to enable strict mode.
