*[Lire ce readme en français.](./README_fr.md)*
> *This package allows you to install Redirect quickly and simply on a YunoHost server.
If you don't have YunoHost, please consult [the guide](https://yunohost.org/#/install) to learn how to install it.*
## Overview
This application allows to integrate a custom tile in YunoHost's user portal. Typical use cases include:
- **visible 301/302 redirect** : having a "virtual" app tile that's just a redirection to another url or external website
- **invisible redirect / reverse-proxy** : creating an app tile for a local app listening on a specific port, or a Docker container, or an app hosted on another machine
In technical terms: this app only adds a NGINX configuration snippet with either `redirect` or `proxy_pass` rule, and a YunoHost tile + appropriate SSOwat configuration.
**Shipped version:** 1.0.2~ynh2
## Disclaimers / important information
## Redirect type
### Visible redirect
The client will be redirected to another url or external website
- `your-domain.com -> another-domain.net`
- `your-domain.com/foo -> another-domain.net/bar`
### Invisible redirect (a.k.a "reverse-proxy")
Visitor's address bar will remain the same. Typically used to integrate into YunoHost a manually-installed app into the portal.
- `you-domain.com/foo -> http://172.0.0.1:8080/app`
**IMPORTANT:** you may have to further tweak the `redirect.conf` in the nginx configuration, depending on your needs!
**IMPORTANT:** Many apps do not support being redirected to a different path due to relative links! This means that some apps being hosted for example on http://127.0.0.1:5050/app/ MUST be redirected to http://domain.tld/app/ and NOT http://domain.tld/someotherapp/. For example : an Odoo Docker container runs on http://127.0.0.1:8069/. You will not be able to redirect it to http://domain.tld/odoo/ ! You have to redirect it to the root, so for example http://odoo.domain.tld/
