I found a workaround with apache2 (same configuration could be implemented in nginx), basically you need to do some rewrites, but would be nice if BASEPATH can be implemented as part of configuration.

Redirect 301 "/it-tools" "/it-tools/"
        <Location /it-tools/>
                ProxyPreserveHost On
                ProxyPass http://localhost:9070/ retry=0 timeout=5
                ProxyPassReverse http://localhost:9070/
                RequestHeader set Connection ""

                AddOutputFilterByType INFLATE;SUBSTITUTE text/html application/javascript
                SubstituteMaxLineLength 2000K
                Substitute "s|href=\"|href=\"/it-tools/|inq"
                Substitute "s|src=\"|src=\"/it-tools|inq"
                Substitute "s|\"assets/|\"it-tools/assets/|inq"
                Substitute "s|BASE_URL:\"/\"|BASE_URL:\"/it-tools/\"|inq"
        </Location>

You can find example here: https://sitnikov.eu/it-tools/
It is not perfect:

1. Main page shows 404 instead of "main page", but if you click on "home" it will be fine. Solved
2. URL will be updated without basepath, but in a fact all scripts are loaded from the correct place.

Hi @doubleJazzCat, @AndrewDi, @GAS85, @momomobinx, related to #423, implemented in my fork, if you arr interested in up to date version of it-tools, I made kind of a fork here : https://github.com/sharevb/it-tools (https://sharevb-it-tools.vercel.app/ and docker images https://github.com/sharevb/it-tools/pkgs/container/it-tools)

nice guy, may the force be with u

[GAS85]

@sharevb I did test it twice and seems not working for me...

[imantoniojuan]

Hi @GAS85, how did you solve the 404 on the main page?
@sharevb, I have tested your docker image as well but I get the 404 on main page too.

I need to click the Home icon in order to populate the tools list.

[GAS85]

Hey, actually configuration above was updated, Substitute of BASE_URL makes the trick. If it does not work for you, please provide your configuration here.

[imantoniojuan]

@GAS85 thanks for clarifying. I got it working through my nginx.

rewrite ^/it-tools(/.*)$ $1 break;

sub_filter 'it-tools.tech' 'mydomain.com/it-tools';
sub_filter "/assets/" "/it-tools/assets/";
sub_filter "\"assets/" "\"it-tools/assets/";
sub_filter "/manifest.webmanifest" "/it-tools/manifest.webmanifest";
sub_filter "/sw.js" "/it-tools/sw.js";
sub_filter "/android-chrome" "/it-tools/android-chrome";
sub_filter "/favico" "/it-tools/favico";
sub_filter "BASE_URL:\"/\"" "BASE_URL:\"/it-tools/\"";

sub_filter_once off;
sub_filter_types *;

However, some things are broken like ASCII Art Text Generator, Adding to Favourites inside each tool and Web App. I think its acceptable now though.

Hi @GAS85 and @imantoniojuan , I just integrated things related to #423
I will try to release a docker image at "/it-tools/" BASE_URL
Also, latest docker image use a nginx unpriveledged so on port 8080
And finally, I am not a specialist of nginx and so I took thins here : #461

You right... I will check what is wrong there. I thought I did test it all.

[sharevb]

Hi @ , implemented BASE_URL (and config sample) in my fork, and published a baseurl-it-tools tag

Detailed explaination to make it work: https://github.com/sharevb/it-tools?tab=readme-ov-file#docker-compose-for-hosting-in-a-it-tools-subfolder and https://github.com/sharevb/it-tools?tab=readme-ov-file#docker-compose-for-hosting-in-a-it-tools-subfolder

ASCII Art Text Generator does not work for now, it is nothing to do with current solution.

Everything else is working now.

Hi @GAS85, latest version of baseurl-it-tools tag should make ascii art text generator work.
