Redirectify

Redirectify is a chrome plugin that redirects http trafic where you want it.

Why?

Well, i wanted a easy way to redirect for api trafic during development. I wanted a easy way to swap from dev server to real server, without leaving chrome and with only one click.

for example

I'm developing a webpage that uses an REST API to talk with the backend.

The rest api request ulr's will always start with localhost:8585/rest/ when talking to an mock server.

But now, I as an developer want´s to test my new feature with a real backend. The solution is simple. We can tell Redirectify that all trafic currently running in chrome that contains localhost:8585/rest/ can be redirected to another host/port/url.

In this example we will redirect the requests to my live server running on localhost:1337/rest/.

The final configuration in the redirectify gui will be the following:

config
Urls: to trigger on = localhost:8585/rest
Replace the following = localhost:8585/rest
With = localhost:1337/rest
