contour: Redirect: adding a redirect (301 or 302) option in ingressroute / httpproxy
Describe the solution you’d like The ingressroute / httpproxy should be able to support a match and then redirect with either a 301 or 302 to an http or https destination
Something like:
spec:
routes:
- match: /
services:
- name: awesome-service-01
port: 1000
- match: /redirectpath
redirect:
method: 301
destination: https://externalawesomewebsite.com
virtualhost:
fqdn: awesomehost.tld
Anything else you would like to add: The use case would be that for example if you have a website pointed to the ingress you can now also do redirects in contour. This would prevent you from having to spin up another container inside for the redirect (nginx for example).
Environment:

): v1.14.6-gke.1 - Kubernetes installer & version: N/A (Google)

Thank you for your feature request. I think I understand the use case. At the moment we’re deep in feature freeze in preparation for Contour 1.0. I’ve assigned this to the backlog for prioritisation for a future release.
We’ve already got it for Gateway API: https://github.com/projectcontour/contour/pull/4123
This would be nice for dealing with redirecting 'example.com
to
www.example.comor vice-versa. Currently, I'm running an nginx container whose only job is to redirect all requests to
www.example.com`.
