Configure HTTP to HTTPS redirect using traefik's IngressRoute
2 min read | by Jordi Prats
When using the Traefik ingress controller there are several ways of redirecting HTTP traffic to HTTPS, one of the ways is using IngressRoute (Traefik 2)
If we want to redirect traffic for a specific domain we can configure a rule for that domain as follows:
apiVersion: traefik.containo.us/v1alpha1 kind: IngressRoute metadata: name: website-http-to-https spec: entryPoints: - web routes: - match: Host(`pet2cattle.com`) priority: 1000 kind: Rule services: - kind: TraefikService name: noop@internal middlewares: - name: website-http-to-https --- apiVersion: traefik.containo.us/v1alpha1 kind: Middleware metadata: name: website-http-to-https spec: redirectScheme: scheme: https permanent: true On the other hand, if we want to redirect it globally for all the Ingress that we have defined, we can still create an IngressRoute matching all the possible URLs (for example, all of them are going to have / as a path prefix)
apiVersion: traefik.containo.us/v1alpha1 kind: IngressRoute metadata: name: global-http-to-https spec: entryPoints: - web routes: - match: PathPrefix(`/`) priority: 1000 kind: Rule services: - kind: TraefikService name: noop@internal middlewares: - name: global-http-to-https --- apiVersion: traefik.containo.us/v1alpha1 kind: Middleware metadata: name: global-http-to-https spec: redirectScheme: scheme: https permanent: true To redirect HTTP to HTTPS globally there are several ways like set it on the helm chart, depending on the environment one or the other will make more sense.
