In my main asp.net application (angular 4 front end) I accept the following URL:
example.com/report;url=http%3A%2F%2Fexample2.com
I would like to create a rewrite rule that allows people to enter the following URL:
example.com/report;url=http://example2.com
I can’t figure out how to do this.
I tried:
var options = new RewriteOptions()
.AddRewrite(@"(.*);url=http:\/\/([^;]*)(.*)", "$1;url=http%3A%2F%2F$2$3", skipRemainingRules: false)
.AddRewrite(@"^report.*", "index.html", skipRemainingRules: true)
app.UseRewriter(options);
This did not work, but even if it were, it would not take into account URLs that have slashes after the domain, that is, subdirectories. Using the group matching pattern, I think this is impossible to do. This should be a search and replace operation in the corresponding group.
Other web servers have this as a custom option for decoding a slash. I cannot find links to it in the main asp.net docs. Is it possible?
