Convos::Manual::HttpHeaders - HTTP headers for Convos

HTTP HEADERS

Convos acts on the following HTTP headers, set in a reverse proxy.

X-Request-Base

Set this header if you are mounting Convos under a custom path. Example with nginx:

  # mount the application under /convos
  location /convos {
    # remove "/convos" from the forwarded request
    rewrite ^/convos(.*)$ $1 break;

    # generic headers for correct handling of ws and http
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;

    # set this if you are running SSL
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-HTTPS 1;

    # inform Convos the full location where it is mounted
    proxy_set_header X-Request-Base "https://some-domain.com/convos";

    # tell nginx where Convos is running
    proxy_pass http://10.0.0.10:8080;
  }
