Обсуждение: Updating docbot URLs

Hi Everyone,

It'd be good if we could update the IRC docbot to reference
https://www.postgresql.org rather than the, still frequently used,
http://www.postgresql.org. Several individuals have started to manually
update the URLs whenever referenced, but doing this one-by-one seems
pretty inefficient. Given a database system etc. ;)

It'd probably also be a good idea to replace URLs like
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/interactive/collation.html
with
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/collation.html

Given that the former now redirects to the latter (I presume because it
now also has the comment form link, but it's still weird to have the
/static in there).

Greetings,

Andres Freund

I'm happy to effect these changes unless anyone sees a problem or a risk
in doing so (Ads?).

Thanks!

Might as well rewrite them when they are added to the database.

We already replace /interactive/ with /static/ when documentation links are added to the database.

And I know that I updated all links in the database around the same time.

Hmm, I see my mistake, that only happens for http links, not for https.

Goes on my to-do.

Good stuff Andreas.  Sounds like that would have taken a bunch
of effort. :)
