The sphinx-reredirects is the extension for Sphinx documentation projects that handle redirects for moved pages. It generates HTML pages with meta refresh redirects to the new page location to prevent 404 errors if you rename or move your documents.
The sphinx-reredirects started from the urge to manage redirects for all documents after moving our Tech writer at work blog to the new address at https://documatt.com/blog/.

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