Is it possible to redirect 'http' to https'?

[rethna2]

This simple server really works for me (spa and api proxy support) and many thanks to the developers and maintainers. Presently having it as below: ws --spa index.html --rewrite '/api/* -> https://backendapi.com/api/$1' -p 8080

Is it possible to redirect 'http' to https'? I am not reporting it as issue, but just asking as question. Would really appreciate any answer.

What exactly do you want to happen, could you spell it out to me please?

Do you want one of the following or something else?

1. a request to http://localhost:8000 to return this response:

   HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
   Location: https://localhost:8000

2. a request to http://localhost:8000 to be transparently proxied by the server to https://localhost:8000

I want the second one. I am getting a 404, for http://localhost:8000. I want to redirect to 'https://localhost:8000'.

The second example i gave is not a redirect, it is a proxy. If you want to proxy, read this.

Yes. You are correct. Thanks for the help.
