Http Redirect in Golang
This is meant mainly as a Go playground. The idea is to run a redirect service that logs the IP address of the remote host.
Build and run
To build:
$ cd HttpRedirect/
$ go get github.com/gorilla/mux
$ go build redirect.go
To run:
$ ./redirect
Then, from a browser: localhost:8080/r/<URL_to_redirect_to>
To see the log: localhost:8080/log (or check the standard output).
