Very-nearly-free HTTPS redirects for Heroku and DNSimple | justin․searls․co

Tuesday, while recording an episode of The Changelog, Adam reminded me that my redirects from possyparty.com to posseparty.com didn't support HTTPS. Naturally, because this was caught live and on air and was my own damn fault, I immediately rushed to cover for the shame I felt by squirreling away and writing custom software. As we do. See, if you're a cheapskate like me, you might have noticed that forwarding requests from one domain or subdomain to another while supporting HTTPS isn't particularly cheap with many DNS hosts. But the thing is, I am particularly cheap. So I built a cheap solution. It's called redirect-dingus:.
