RedirectUri

class oci.load_balancer.models.RedirectUri(**kwargs)

Bases: object

An object that defines the redirect URI applied to the original request. The object property values compose the redirect URI.

NOTE: The Load Balancing service cannot automatically detect or avoid infinite redirects. Be sure to provide meaningful, complete, and correct field values. If any component field of this object has no value, the system retains the value from the incoming HTTP request URI.

For example, if you specify only the protocol field https, and the incoming request URI is http://example.com:8080, the resulting runtime redirect URI is https://example.com:8080. The system retains the host and port from the incoming URI and does not automatically change the port setting from 8080 to 443.

Be sure to configure valid percent-encoding (URL encoding) when needed.

In addition to static string values, you can use the following tokens to construct the redirect URI. These tokens extract values from the incoming HTTP request URI.

  • {protocol} : The protocol from the incoming HTTP request URI.
  • {host} : The domain name from the incoming HTTP request URI.
  • {port} : The port from the incoming HTTP request URI.
  • {path} : The path from the incoming HTTP request URI.
  • {query} : The query string from the incoming HTTP request URI.

Methods

__init__(**kwargs) Initializes a new RedirectUri object with values from keyword arguments.

Attributes

host Gets the host of this RedirectUri.
path Gets the path of this RedirectUri.
port Gets the port of this RedirectUri.
protocol Gets the protocol of this RedirectUri.
query Gets the query of this RedirectUri.

The tokens are case sensitive. For example, {host} is a valid token, but {HOST} is not.

You can retain the literal characters of a token when you specify values for the path and query properties of the redirect URI. Use a backslash (\) as the escape character for the \, {, and } characters. For example, if the incoming HTTP request URI is /video, the path property value:

/example{path}123{path}

appears in the constructed redirect URI as:

/example/video123{path}

__init__(**kwargs)

Initializes a new RedirectUri object with values from keyword arguments. The following keyword arguments are supported (corresponding to the getters/setters of this class):

Parameters:
  • protocol (str) – The value to assign to the protocol property of this RedirectUri.
  • host (str) – The value to assign to the host property of this RedirectUri.
  • port (int) – The value to assign to the port property of this RedirectUri.
  • path (str) – The value to assign to the path property of this RedirectUri.
  • query (str) – The value to assign to the query property of this RedirectUri.
host

Gets the host of this RedirectUri. The valid domain name (hostname) or IP address to use in the redirect URI.

When this value is null, not set, or set to {host}, the service preserves the original domain name from the incoming HTTP request URI.

All RedirectUri tokens are valid for this property. You can use any token more than once.

Curly braces are valid in this property only to surround tokens, such as {host}

Examples:

  • example.com appears as example.com in the redirect URI.
  • in{host} appears as inexample.com in the redirect URI if example.com is the hostname in the incoming HTTP request URI.
  • {port}{host} appears as 8081example.com in the redirect URI if example.com is the hostname and the port is 8081 in the incoming HTTP request URI.
Returns:The host of this RedirectUri.
Return type:str
path

Gets the path of this RedirectUri. The HTTP URI path to use in the redirect URI.

When this value is null, not set, or set to {path}, the service preserves the original path from the incoming HTTP request URI. To omit the path from the redirect URI, set this value to an empty string, “”.

All RedirectUri tokens are valid for this property. You can use any token more than once.

The path string must begin with / if it does not begin with the {path} token.

Examples:

  • __/example/video/123__ appears as /example/video/123 in the redirect URI.
  • __/example{path}__ appears as /example/video/123 in the redirect URI if /video/123 is the path in the incoming HTTP request URI.
  • __{path}/123__ appears as /example/video/123 in the redirect URI if /example/video is the path in the incoming HTTP request URI.
  • __{path}123__ appears as /example/video123 in the redirect URI if /example/video is the path in the incoming HTTP request URI.
  • __/{host}/123__ appears as /example.com/123 in the redirect URI if example.com is the hostname in the incoming HTTP request URI.
  • __/{host}/{port}__ appears as /example.com/123 in the redirect URI if example.com is the hostname and 123 is the port in the incoming HTTP request URI.
  • __/{query}__ appears as /lang=en in the redirect URI if the query is lang=en in the incoming HTTP request URI.
Returns:The path of this RedirectUri.
Return type:str
port

Gets the port of this RedirectUri. The communication port to use in the redirect URI.

Valid values include integers from 1 to 65535.

When this value is null, the service preserves the original port from the incoming HTTP request URI.

Example: 8081

Returns:The port of this RedirectUri.
Return type:int
protocol

Gets the protocol of this RedirectUri. The HTTP protocol to use in the redirect URI.

When this value is null, not set, or set to {protocol}, the service preserves the original protocol from the incoming HTTP request URI. Allowed values are:

  • HTTP
  • HTTPS
  • {protocol}

{protocol} is the only valid token for this property. It can appear only once in the value string.

Example: HTTPS

Returns:The protocol of this RedirectUri.
Return type:str
query

Gets the query of this RedirectUri. The query string to use in the redirect URI.

When this value is null, not set, or set to {query}, the service preserves the original query parameters from the incoming HTTP request URI.

All RedirectUri tokens are valid for this property. You can use any token more than once.

If the query string does not begin with the {query} token, it must begin with the question mark (?) character.

You can specify multiple query parameters as a single string. Separate each query parameter with an ampersand (&) character. To omit all incoming query parameters from the redirect URI, set this value to an empty string, “”.

If the specified query string results in a redirect URI ending with ? or &, the last character is truncated. For example, if the incoming URI is http://host.com:8080/documents and the query property value is ?lang=en&{query}, the redirect URI is http://host.com:8080/documents?lang=en. The system truncates the final ampersand (&) because the incoming URI included no value to replace the {query} token.

Examples: * lang=en&time_zone=PST appears as lang=en&time_zone=PST in the redirect URI.

  • {query} appears as lang=en&time_zone=PST in the redirect URI if lang=en&time_zone=PST is the query string in the incoming HTTP request. If the incoming HTTP request has no query parameters, the {query} token renders as an empty string.
  • lang=en&{query}&time_zone=PST appears as lang=en&country=us&time_zone=PST in the redirect URI if country=us is the query string in the incoming HTTP request. If the incoming HTTP request has no query parameters, this value renders as lang=en&time_zone=PST.
  • protocol={protocol}&hostname={host} appears as protocol=http&hostname=example.com in the redirect URI if the protocol is HTTP and the hostname is example.com in the incoming HTTP request.
  • port={port}&hostname={host} appears as port=8080&hostname=example.com in the redirect URI if the port is 8080 and the hostname is example.com in the incoming HTTP request URI.
Returns:The query of this RedirectUri.
Return type:str
