Issue
I want to use NGINX to as a proxy to get to Deluge which is inside my home network (NGINX is publically available).
This configuration works:
location 8112;
location / {
proxy_pass http://deluge_address:8112;
}
However I'd like to use an address in form of http://nginx_address/deluge to be proxied to internal http://deluge_address:8112.
I tried the following:
location /deluge/ {
proxy_pass http://deluge_address:8112/;
}
(I tried different combinations of trailing / - none work).
But I get 404 Not found instead.
I have some knowledge about networks, but not too much. Does anybody have any idea what I'm doing wrongly?
Solution
I did find a solution for this, but found a bug also in Nginx in the same time
https://trac.nginx.org/nginx/ticket/1370#ticket
Edit-1
Seems like bug i logged was an invalid one, which even helped me understand few more things. So I edited the config a bit.
You need to use below config
location ~* /deluge/(.*) {
sub_filter_once off;
sub_filter_types text/css;
sub_filter '"base": "/"' '"base": "/deluge/"';
sub_filter '<head>' '<head>\n<base href="/deluge/">';
sub_filter 'src="/' 'src="./';
sub_filter 'href="/' 'href="./';
sub_filter 'url("/' 'url("./';
sub_filter 'url(\'/' 'url(\'./';
set $deluge_host 192.168.33.100;
set $deluge_port 32770;
proxy_pass http://$deluge_host:$deluge_port/$1;
proxy_cookie_domain $deluge_host $host;
proxy_cookie_path / /deluge/;
proxy_redirect http://$deluge_host:$deluge_port/ /deluge/;
}
The key was to insert a base url into the pages using below
sub_filter '<head>' '<head>\n<base href="/deluge/">';
And then make replacement in src and href attributes in html. And also url(' in css entries.
Luckily deluge has a JavaScript config which has the base url. So we can override the same by adding
sub_filter '"base": "/"' '"base": "/deluge/"';
