Description
Currently the path prefix is derived from the X-Forwarded-Prefix
HTTP header of the first request only and then applied to every subsequent request (see here).
The header may be specified by a reverse-proxy that exposes the web app under a different path.
However, applying the prefix of the first request to all requests is a problem because:
- when reconfiguring the reverse-proxy with a different prefix the change is not applied, unless the web app is restarted.
- it does not allow using the web app with multiple path prefixes simultaneously (e.g. when letting a reverse-proxy expose it with a path prefix while still letting another client access the web app directly, bypassing the reverse-proxy).
Thus, I suggest to derive the path prefix on a per-request basis and to not store the result as global application state.
