S3 static host redirect and strip slug

Question

Is it possible to create a static website redirect rule that redirects `www.domain1.com/* --> www.domain2.com` without maintaining the slug ? Something like this if wildcard was allowed: ``` * www.domain2.com / ```

Accepted Answer

You have to "think like S3." "Key prefix" is a prefix, and by definition, an empty string is the prefix of all strings -- because `left(anystring,len('')) == ''`. So you don't need a wildcard -- you should be able to simply say this: ``` ``` Then, you don't want to replace the prefix -- you want to replace the entire key, so that looks like this: ``` ``` You ask... why is it empty instead of `/`? It's because, in the S3 model, the keyspace does not begin with `/`. `bucket.example.com/foo` has a path of `/foo` but its key is actually `foo`.
