http to https redirect with exceptions

The same type of Irule can be applied. It all depends on what what you are looking to replace. IS the specific word part of a link?

Yes it is part of a link.

 

How do you implement it then?

 

Lets assume I want to rewrite everything that contains/not contains a certain string?

Then you should be able to do the following

 
 when HTTP_RESPONSE { 
 if { [HTTP::header Content-Type] starts_with "text/" }{ 
 STREAM::expression "@http:\\somedomain.com\word@https:\\someotherdomain.com\word@" 
 STREAM::enable 
 } else { 
 STREAM::disable 
 } 
 }

Hi,

 

 

That iRule is using a stream profile to replace instances of http: with https: in text-type response content. If you need to make it more specific, you can possibly use a regex or the STREAM_MATCHED and STREAM::match command.

 

 

If you'd like more detailed suggestions can you post a few examples of links you do and don't want rewritten?

 

 

Here are a few wiki pages with examples:

 

 

You might be able to tweak the find string of http: using a regex

Or you could use the existing stream expression, but then add logic to the STREAM_MATCHED event to only rewrite the specific matches you want to using STREAM::replace.

It would be nice to get to update the post from within an email.
