ANN: sphinx-reredirects extension for managing redirects

[Matt from Documatt]

Hi, all dear Sphinx fellows!

Just a short off-topic. I want to share with you my simple extension. I called it "reredirects", the homepage is https://gitlab.com/documatt/sphinx-reredirects.

If you host documentation on static file hosting where server-side redirects are not possible, you may find this extension useful.

Copy&paste from its readme:

sphinx-reredirects is the extension for Sphinx documentation projects that handles redirects for moved pages. Based on its configuration, the extension generates HTML pages with meta refresh redirects to the new page location to prevent 404 errors if you rename or move your documents.

Good URLs are never changing URLs. But if you must, sphinx-reredirects helps you manage redirects with ease and from the single place in project's conf.py. For example, if you rename the document start to intro, you configure this redirect, the extension generates HTML page start.html with <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0; url=intro.html">. sphinx-reredirects supports wildcards and moving to different domain too.
