Redirect iRule and replace only part of the URI

Hi Guys,

 

I have the following scenario and I'm not sure how to start writing my iRule to handle it. I need to redirect all requests for https://oldsite.domain.com/psp/atlas_1/EMPLOYEExxx/whatever to https://newsite.domain.com/psp/product/EMPLOYEExxx/whatever.

 

My problem is that the "/psp/atlas_1/" can change while everything as of and after "/EMPLOYEExxx/whatever" must remain. "/psp" can be either "psp" or "psc" and must remain as in the original request. "/atlas_1" can be "atlas" or "atlas_X" where X can be any number.

 

So to summarize, what I need to achieve is to extract the "/atlas..." part from the original URI and replace it by "/product/". SO I guess it's a kind of string map with a regex or something like that.

 

Would you have any idea how I could achieve this?

 

Thanks in advance

    Try something like this (untested):

    when HTTP_REQUEST {
HTTP::uri [string map { [lindex [split [HTTP::uri] "/" ] 2] product} [HTTP::uri]] 
HTTP::respond 301 Location "https://newsite.domain.com[HTTP::uri]"
}

    Eventually this is what I implemented.

    Thanks for your help.

    when HTTP_REQUEST {

    if { [string tolower [HTTP::host]] equals "oldsite.domain.com" }
        {
            set NEWURI [string map "oldsite newsite" [HTTP::uri]]
            set NEWURI [string map "oldstring newstring" $NEWURI]
            set NEWURL https://newsite.domain.com$NEWURI
            HTTP::respond 200 content "
            
            
            
            Your page has moved !

            " noserver
            return

        }

    }

      I was looking for the similar one but replace the URI and change the referer as well. can you please help me with that.

     

    when HTTP_REQUEST {

     

       if { [HTTP::uri] starts_with "/abcd" } {

           HTTP::uri [string map {"/abcd" "/xyz"} [HTTP::uri]]

       }

    }
