Deploy subdirectory

This function is implemented based on react-router's basename, so it is not applicable to subdirectories implemented through nginx configuration deploy.

Apache Answer supports subdirectory deployment as of version 1.3.5. This configuration allows you to set a route prefix for your application, e.g., if you have routes / and /questions, and you set base_url to /foo, you can access the previous routes via /foo and /foo/questions.

注意

The configuration must be set at build time and cannot be changed without a rebuild because the value is inlined in the client package. This means that it is necessary for the user to modify the configuration file and then compile it themselves in order to complete the build of the project.

Steps​

  1. Modify the configuration file /configs/config.yaml。
  2. Run the command to build the project make ui make build。
  3. Run the command INSTALL_PORT=80 . /answer init -C . /answer-data/ Initialize the project, note that you need to add your base_url (http://localhost:80/{base_url}/install/) to the access path here to see if the configuration is successful.
  4. Packaging into docker or releasing the above binary directly, see here

Configuration file introduction​

In order to unify the management of configuration-related variables, starting from v1.3.5, the environment variables in the ui directory are unified into /configs/config.yaml in the root directory, and the configurations here will be generated into /ui/.env.production by scripts, so as to realize the injection of environment variables.

Note: This only affects variables in the production environment, for development mode please continue to refer here. For more information on configuration files, please refer to here.

ui:
  public_url: '/'
  api_url: '/'
  base_url: ''

base_url​

The path of the subdirectory. The default value is '', which means it is deployed in the root directory. If the value is modified, for example base_url: '/foo'', all access paths of the page will be added with this prefix.

Normally, if this value is modified, public_url should also remain consistent.

public_url​

The path of static resources. The default value is '/'. If the website uses CDN to host static resources, this value can be set to the URL of CDN. If base_url is modified and CDN is not used, then this value also needs to be Same value as base_url.

api_url​

The default value is '', which is normally not adjusted. However, if your project uses nginx to proxy subpaths, you need to match the value of base_url.

提示

The KEY written to the .env file will be converted to:

PUBLIC_URL=/
REACT_APP_API_URL=/
REACT_APP_BASE_URL=
