## README

# Express SSL Redirect

Express 4.x middleware for SSL-only sites. Redirects http requests to https.

Similar to https://www.npmjs.com/package/force-ssl except it has a simpler setup (as it makes the requires Express 'app' for non-SSL users)

## Usage:

Typically in /bin/www:

	var sslRedirect = require('express-ssl-redirect');

Then:

	sslRedirect(80, 'example.com');

Of course, you should probably run node as a non-root user, which means binding to port above 1024, and mapping incoming port 80 connections to that high numbered port and incoming port 443  connection to another high numbered port.
