Spree Redirects adds an interface for redirecting old urls to new ones. It's for when you replace an existing site with a shiny new spree site and want to avoid broken links and broken hearts.
To get a better idea of what it does, just follow the Demo instructions below...
Install spree_redirects by adding the following to your existing spree site's Gemfile:
gem 'spree_redirects', '0.2.0'
Or if you want to track the git repo, add this instead:
gem 'spree_redirects', :git => 'git:https://github.com/citrus/spree_redirects.git'
Now bundle up:
bundle
Then run the generator which copies the migration template into your project:
rails g spree_redirects:install
Migrate your database:
rake db:migrate
And boot up your server:
rails s
You should now be up and running at https://localhost:3000!
Clone this repo to where you develop, bundle up and run dummier to get the show started:
git clone git:https://github.com/citrus/spree_redirects.git
cd spree_redirects
bundle install
bundle exec dummier
This will generate a fresh rails app in test/dummy
, install spree_core & spree_redirects, then migrate the test database. Sweet.
Now just run the tests with:
bundle exec rake
You can easily use the test/dummy app as a demo of spree_redirects. Just cd
to where you develop and run:
git clone git:https://github.com/citrus/spree_redirects.git
cd spree_redirects
cp test/dummy_hooks/after_migrate.rb.sample test/dummy_hooks/after_migrate.rb
bundle install
bundle exec dummier
cd test/dummy
rails s
Now log into the admin, click the 'Configuration' tab, then click 'Manage Redirects'. Try adding a redirect for /shop.php
that points to /products
, then visit https://localhost:3000/shop.php. You should be redirected to /products
.
