How to redirect http to https with Traefik 2.0 and Docker Compose labels?

Question

Please note that it is a Traefik V2 question. I had a solution on V1 but V2 is a total rewamp.

This above is supposed to redirect http://whoami.mysite.com to https://whoami.mysite.com.

• The https is working nicely.
• The http don't redirect to https and raise an error 404.

There is no other file. All is in this Docker-compose.yml for the moment since it is a test to prepare further deployement.

version: "3.3"

services:

  traefik:
    image: "traefik:v2.0"
    container_name: "traefik"
    command:
      - "--log.level=DEBUG"
      - "--api.insecure=true"
      - "--providers.docker=true"

Answer 1

I suggest to take a look here at the docs Entrypoint redirect 80 > 443

This worked for me and is the best solution if you want all traffic redirected from port 80 to 443.

--entrypoints.web.address=:80
--entrypoints.web.http.redirections.entryPoint.to=websecure
--entrypoints.web.http.redirections.entryPoint.scheme=https
--entrypoints.web.http.redirections.entrypoint.permanent=true
--entrypoints.websecure.address=:443

NOTE:

there are so many examples around. Just take a look at websecure.

Sometimes it is written web-secure.

Hope that helps ;o)
