[Support]: Subpath on IP/Hostname

[Slyke]

📝 Inquiry

Is it possible to set a subpath for the WUI?

So instead of 192.168.1.5:3000, I can instead use 192.168.1.5:3000/zt-wui, and all requests will use this subpath?

I don't see this option in the environment variables. This would allow for this application to run behind a reverse proxy.

Next.js (which ZTNet uses) supports a basePath property in next.config.ts that allows the application to run on a subpath.
However, this configuration is set at build time, meaning you would need to rebuild the application with your specific subpath.

Adding dynamic subpath support at runtime is not a trivial task.

Ohh, that's too bad. Basically means you can't use it behind a reverse proxy, unless you dedicate a subdomain or different port for it.

you can do something like this:

location /ztnet/ {
    proxy_pass http://localhost:3000/;
}

That causes a whole bunch of 404s, as it still tries to use the top level directory.

yeah, ztnet will still try to use /
i will look into this and see if we could add a runtime variable for subpath when i get time.
