Add web proxy mounting at ROOT for testing #8

Closed nichtich closed 1 year ago

nichtich commented 1 year ago

For local testing with a ROOT such as /terminology/, the service from localhost:3555 must be mounted at $HOST/terminology/. I use an additional web server to do so, but this could also be integrated into server.js.

For me, it works if I just don't set ROOT. It will then proxy the /terminology/ subpath of uri.gbv.de as well. Maybe not the intended solution, but it seems to be working as expected for me.

Without setting ROOT

the start page (list of concept schemes) is not served at /terminology/ but at /
assets such as client.css are not loaded from /terminology/ but from /

We could change this lines to serve assets from $ROOT and show an error message at / when $ROOT is set. HTTP Proxy is then optional, e.g.

 ProxyPass /terminology/ http://localhost:3555/terminology/
 ProxyPassReverse /terminology/ http://localhost:3555/terminology/

Configuration and mounting has been refactored (see README).
