Add adapters for redirects middleware

[zachleat]

Personally I’d get a lot of use out of having netlify redirects available in dev mode as an adapter

I ran across this while building a SPA with 11ty and in these cases netlify redirects not working is really annoying.

I also created a small reproduction of the issue here: https://github.com/Snapstromegon/netlify-eleventy-dev.

This is a small, but annoying bug (and I don't know if netlify dev not working too is on this, or netlify-cli's side to fix). There is a workaround for static builds though, when you use netlify dev:

Add these two scripts to your package.json:

{
    "build:watch": "npx @11ty/eleventy --watch",
    "dev": "npx netlify-cli dev"
}

Add this to your netlify.toml

[dev]
  framework = "#static"
  autoLaunch = false
  command = "npm run build:watch"

This does not work for stuff that requires the use of the dev server like auto reloading, but it solves the base issue as a workaround.

Btw: The redirect parser is now located here: https://github.com/netlify/build/tree/main/packages/redirect-parser

I also hit this issue, and haven't been able to replicate my _redirects with onRequest or middleware (which is undocumented but read about somewhere) with 11ty 3.0. Note that _redirects is also supported by Cloudflare Pages, which is what I use: https://developers.cloudflare.com/pages/configuration/redirects/

I know that you were referring to middleware but I do want to link up onRequest docs: https://www.11ty.dev/docs/dev-server/#on-request-for-request-time-processing

Most of the code for this is in @Snapstromegon’s PR here: https://github.com/11ty/eleventy-dev-server/pull/57/files

I would love to have a demo repo for this (or an example on the docs) of how to wire this up with onRequest, for the record!
