Description
I am running an instance of JupyterLab on Heroku.
https://github.com/heroku/heroku-jupyterlab
Heroku handles the SSL certificate but requires the WebServer on the app level to handle the redirecting:
https://help.heroku.com/J2R1S4T8/can-heroku-force-an-application-to-use-ssl-tls
This seems to be possible with Django & Flask; but I can't seem to find any options for configuring Tornado to do the same (which is used to power JupyterLab).
It would be nice to have an option similar to in Rails and Django like config.force_ssl = true etc.
