`ftd.redirect`: Dynamic Redirect

In any document you can use `ftd.redirect` to ignore the document and return a HTTP Redirect response.

-- ftd.redirect: /

Lang:

ftd

Redirect To A Dynamic URL

You can fetch the URL to redirect using any variable as well, this can be used with [processors](/processor/-/backend/).

-- import: fastn/processors as pr

;; get query parameter next
-- string next:
$processor$: pr.request-data

-- ftd.redirect: $next

Lang:

ftd

Status Code

By default `ftd.redirect` returns HTTP response with `308 Permanent Redirect` code. You can overwrite it by passing a `code` value:

-- ftd.redirect: /
code: 301

Lang:

ftd

This will send `301 Moved Permanently` response. Possible status codes are:

| Code | Name | Temporary Or Permanent | Usage Notes | |------|--------------------|------------------------|-------------| | 301 | Moved Permanently | Permanent | Prefer 308 | | 302 | Found | Temporary | Prefer 307 | | 303 | See Other | Temporary | Prefer 307 | | 307 | Temporary Redirect | Temporary | | | 308 | Permanent Redirect | Permanent | |

We do not yet support `300 - Multiple Choices` or `305 - Use Proxy` because we have not found a use case for them.
