Domain migration
Plan
Change hisports.app to play.spordle.com in production and staging.hisports.app to play.spordle.dev in staging.
The HiSports domains will show a notice that the domain has changed and will also allow the Spordle domains to retrieve local storage to maintain login state.
Timing should coincide with the release of the My Account login.
Timeline
There are only two windows to make this kind of change: Christmas break and April break between hockey/soccer seasons.
Staging to be completed early December
Production to be completed on April 1st, 2024.
Affected Resources
List of hisports.app subdomains in active use and where they’re used.
Will initially use HTTP 307 (temporary redirect) in the short term (to allow for potential rollback if issues are discovered), then convert to HTTP 301 (permanent redirect) at a later date.
