Fanstatic URLs without protocol and hostname?

[Thierry Florac]

Hi,

I have an internal application using Fanstatic which is currently published throught HTTP.

This application is also going to be published outside of my company using a Web Application Firewall, throught HTTPS.

My question is simple: to simplify WAF configuration, is there any way to generate "absolute" resources URLs not including protocol and hostname?

Best regards,

Thierry

Hi Thierry,

Did you try to use the base_url configuration option [1] to achieve
this? Setting this to '/' could achieve the behavior you are looking
for.

If this doesn't work, you could have some code in your request cycle
that modifies the NeededResources instance for that request based on
certain request variables (HTTPS yes/no) that you could pass in from
the configuration of an intermediate server. I don't know enough about
your stack to say something useful in that area.

Cheers,

JJ

Hi,

I tried "base_url" configuration option and it finally works fine!

But you have to use an empty string instead of a "/"; otherwise you get "//" in front of resources URLs and it just doesn't work...

Many thanks,

Thierry
