Adding https support

[preco21]

FYI: I think this could finally be done with this announcement. GitHub is moving forward to support https for custom domains with Let’s Encrypt.

Maybe reopening this issue again?

I have updated the DNS records and it seems https://reactivex.io is now working. Please verify.

[snewell92]

Nice!

Closing as https://reactivex.io/ is confirmed working. I also enabled "Enforce HTTPS" on the repo and http://reactivex.io should redirect properly.

This is probably related to #307 - which might be out of date.

Github pages doesn't support HTTPS for custom domains. (See https://help.github.com/articles/securing-your-github-pages-site-with-https/)
The next best approach is to use a 3rd party like Cloudflare (Here's a guide)

[snewell92]

Ah, right you are.

Any update on this issue?

[simonbasle]

the HTTPS certificate is still flagged as insecure due to using a certificate delivered to github.com.
Maybe A DNS records are used? There is a guide on how to configure HTTPS in that later case at https://help.github.com/en/articles/troubleshooting-custom-domains#https-errors

From a quick search and a dig reactivex.io, I suspect this mostly requires the reactivex.io domain admin to change the A-record IP addresses, but I wasn't able to identify the owner of the domain.

So from whois, it looks like @benjchristensen, or at least he should know who does own this domain. We better find out soon because the Registry Expiry Date: 2022-01-04T01:45:54Z is fast approaching.

Thanks Ben! This issue can probably be closed, although it doesn't by default redirect you to https. We aren't enforcing so I may create a new issue that allows us to do that. You can still navigate to the page via http if you type it in or have a link. I believe the link below either enforces it, or redirects if you don't use https.
