Add an Url Rewrite rule

    This Package action will Add a new url rewriting rule to the UrlRewriting.config file. The undo option makes sure that the rewriting rule can be removed again at uninstall.

    Alias: AddUrlRewriteRule

    <Action runat="install" 
    undo="true/false" 
    alias="AddUrlRewriteRule">
      <add name="CWS_emaiAFriendID" 
         virtualUrl="^~/email-a-friend/(.[0-9]*).aspx" 
         rewriteUrlParameter="ExcludeFromClientQueryString" 
         destinationUrl="~/email-a-friend.aspx?nodeID=$1" 
         ignoreCase="true" />
    </Action>

    One thing worth noting is that by default the re-directs are 302 re-directs, if you want to do 301 re-directs you need to add the following:

    redirectMode="Permanent"
