About redirect caveats

[Alecell]

I don't know if I get this:

Redirects. Caveat: every route should be able to redirect except _next/static/* and static/*, since those cache behaviors do not have Lambda handlers attached to them. Note that object format is not yet supported.

Does this mean that I can't redirect from a static page to any other or it means that I can't redirect from anywhere to a static page?

I also don't get the "object format support", what is the alternative? Is the domainRedirects from serverless config? I mean, on the nextjs docs the only format to make redirects is object as far as I can get.

I'm having issue when trying to redirect from a non-existent route to a static path, this is expected? 🤔

Yes, the new format actually refers to https://nextjs.org/docs/api-reference/next.config.js/redirects#header-cookie-and-query-matching. Let me update it to be clearer. It's not yet implemented since I hadn't a chance yet.

You cannot redirect from paths in _next/static/* and static/* as these are the static files path (like images or _next JS files) and don't have the Lambda handlers attached to it. Maybe with CloudFront functions, it should be possible (but not yet implemented)
