I'm on google cloud compute engine with a go webserver (no apache or nginx). I want to forward all http requests to https. My go code has ListenAndServe on port 8080 and the binary runs on port 3000 as https. This was accomplished using below.

gcloud compute forwarding-rules create pgurus --global --address xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxx --ip-protocol TCP --ports=3000 --target-http-proxy TARGET_HTTP_PROXY

Thanks in advance!

You can send back a 301 response when you receive an HTTP request. Google Cloud load balancer will set the X-Forwarded-Proto HTTP header with either the value HTTP or HTTPS. See this answer for details: https://serverfault.com/a/735223

The HTTP response status code 301 Moved Permanently is used for permanent URL redirection, meaning current links or records using the URL that the response is received for should be updated. The new URL should be provided in the Location field included with the response.
