traefik redirect http https ingress helm

If you want to redirect all your HTTP requests to HTTPS, we can configure Traefik to do it for all the Ingress object we have configured

To globally configure Traefik we'll need to configure the HTTP to HTTPS rule on it's helm chart by adding ports.web.redirectTo=websecure, the values file will look as follows:

(...) ports:  web:  redirectTo: websecure  websecure: tls: enabled: true 

If we are using a HelmChart object, it would look as follows:

apiVersion: helm.cattle.io/v1 kind: HelmChart metadata:  name: traefik  namespace: kube-system spec:  chart: https://%{KUBERNETES_API}%/static/charts/traefik-10.3.001.tgz  set:  global.systemDefaultRegistry: ""  valuesContent: |-  rbac:  enabled: true  ports:  web:  redirectTo: websecure  websecure:  tls:  enabled: true  podAnnotations:  prometheus.io/port: "8082"  prometheus.io/scrape: "true"  providers:  kubernetesIngress:  publishedService:  enabled: true  priorityClassName: "system-cluster-critical"  image:  name: "rancher/mirrored-library-traefik"  tolerations:  - key: "CriticalAddonsOnly"  operator: "Exists"  - key: "node-role.kubernetes.io/control-plane"  operator: "Exists"  effect: "NoSchedule"  - key: "node-role.kubernetes.io/master"  operator: "Exists"  effect: "NoSchedule"
