You can rewrite the path in nginx with something like:
rewrite ^/base_path/(.*)$ /$1 break;
The Nginx config is auto-generated such that the matching is not performed. I have full control over the Nginx config on my local development machine and can configure the URL matching easily
location /base_path/ {
proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:1234/;
}
The issue arose when configuring host for deployment which omits the trailing slashes, thus no URL matching occurs.
An alternative I'm also looking into would be to use rclone rather that rest-server to host the restic server as it appears to provide for configuring a base-url.
Output of
rest-server --version
rest-server version rest-server 0.12.0 compiled with go1.20.3 on linux/amd64
What should rest-server do differently?
Would it be possible to add a base url flag? This way the base part of a request can be ignored, as it was used to route traffic to the server, not the user trying to make a request on the server.
What are you trying to do? What is your use case?
The rest-server is behind an Nginx proxied port. As configured the proxied port does not perform request matching on the base URL. Thus, the rest-server interprets incoming request from the user incorrectly, i.e. it see the request come in as "/base_path/user/..." rather then simply "/user/...".
Did rest-server help you today? Did it make you happy in any way?
The rest-server works great and am very happy with how it is performing!
