Originally created by @thenets on GitHub (Jan 9, 2018).
Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/mthenw/frontail/issues/108

I'm trying to implement the Frontail with my test environment.

Problem:
I can't expose too many ports to my team test. So I decide add paths inside the port 80 but the Frontail doesn't expected that and don't rewrite the path of JS dependencies.

I added the path "tail-archiver"

And errors was raised cause don't found the dependencies:

Hey,

what's the setup? Do you use some kind of proxy between browser and frontail?

@mthenw exactly. For debug of test environment I use Sentry and I'm trying to use this project to debug. I'm using the load balancer of Rancher as a proxy.

We're hoping to do something similar with nginx. In fact the hope is to run multiple of these in parallel so that each different path provides access to a different log file.

Yes @bberenberg. That's what I want too but using HAProxy.

Closing this one as I think it should be solved as I described in https://github.com/mthenw/frontail/issues/84. Let me know what do you think!

@mthenw I think is different. The problem I report is related to URL.
In the current frontail release I can't set prefix in the URL:
http://localhost/ (works perfect)
http://localhost/myprefix/ (stop working)

I think is not related to #84.

Agree with the above. This one is specific to having it run with a context path, regardless of the number of instances running. #84 is about having a single instance show multiple logs.

Can his be re-opened? Looking to have this feature as well...want to run behind an nginx proxy on a custom path.

@bberenberg @thenets I started working on this and I have few thoughts.

If there will be additional path param that will cause that frontail will expose frontend on specific URL path it still doesn't solve the problem completely as you are not able to expose multiple frontail instances on the same port.

Can you guys share me your nginx/lb configuration? I think it should be doable without adding anything in the frontail.

Just a normal reverse proxy is my goal

    listen www.example.com:80;
    server_name www.example.com;
    location /frontail1 {
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;

        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
