Combine two iRules

Hi - I am trying to combine two iRules on 9.x.

 

 

I believe a switch -glob statement would be appropriate, but not sure how do it with two different HTTP::'operators.'

 

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

if { !([HTTP::path] equals "http://test/niku/app") } {

 

HTTP::redirect "https://test.testmarketing.com[HTTP::uri]"

 

}

 

}

 

 

 

when HTTP_REQUEST {

 

if { [HTTP::host] equals "test" } {

 

HTTP::redirect "https://test.testmarketing.com[HTTP::uri]"

 

}

 

}

 

 

 

Suggestions?

 

 

Thanks!

  • I am not sure I follow completely, but it seems to me that this would do the trick:

     
    when HTTP_REQUEST {
        if { ([HTTP::host] equals "test") & (!([HTTP::uri] equals "/niku/app")) } {
            HTTP::redirect "https://test.testmarketing.com[HTTP::uri]"
        }
    }
    
  • i think the 2nd HTTP_REQUEST is superset of the 1st one.
  • I read the request as "I want to redirect all traffic to this host, except for this one path"
  • I read the request as "I want to redirect all traffic to this host, except for this one path"

     

    thanks. i overlooked not (!) in the question.
  • Sorry for the confusion guys. Let me update some words so that it doesn't supersede itself.

     

     

    Brain - I have always wanted some explanation to '&&'. This is an 'or' statement correct, not an 'and' statement, correct?

     

     

    I'm looking for an 'OR'

     

     

    when HTTP_REQUEST {

     

    if { ([HTTP::host] equals "nice") && (!([HTTP::uri] equals "/niku/app")) } {

     

    HTTP::redirect "https://nice.testmarketing.com[HTTP::uri]"

     

    }

     

    }

     

     

    Thanks!

    The && is an AND statement and || is an OR statement. If you use an OR the above example, a person going to nice/niku/app will get redirected since it evaluated the left side first.
