NodeJS Routes domainA to domainB with parameter retention

[psweb]

NodeJS, Mac, Wappler 6.8

Does anyone know how to take a url like this
https://www.example.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/DSC_2094-495x400.jpg
and redirect it to
https://blog.example.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/DSC_2094-495x400.jpg

Basically i have moved my blog from domain with parameter blog
https://www.example.com/blog
to now a blog subdomain
https://blog.example.com/

{
      "path": "/blog/*",
      "url": "",
      "name": "BlogMoved",
      "routeType": "redirect",
      "redirect": "https://blog.example.com/"
}

This works but drops all the parameters that were previously in the clicked url, which makes perfect sense, but what do i change to retain the parameters of the original link only dropping the first part /blog

Convert that route to a server action

$_SERVER, Condition and redirect step are what you need

Hope you can figure it out, don't have time to explain now

If you want to get this done faster (in terms of server response), you can also configure a custom middleware.

Extending express (NodeJS)

Extending express You want to add extra middleware to express or define your own route endpoints? Here we will explain you how you can do this. Location All custom code extending express are placed in extensions/server_connect/routes. File Structure Here is a sample of how such a file looks like. exports.handler = function(app) { app.get('/hello', (req, res) => { res.send('Hello World'); }); } The module should export a handler method that accepts the express app as parameter. For…

Should be easy to configure. Ask AI for sample code.
