Web Interface Doesn't work properly (redirects to /active without hostname)

[TylerBrock]

Hey everyone, I've tried starting the web interface as described in the documentation:

var kue = require('kue');
kue.createQueue();
kue.app.listen(3000);

When the app runs and I visit "http://localhost:3000" in a browser it redirects to "/active" without the scheme and hostname portion of the URL. Manually entering back the scheme and hostname allows the /active page to render but without any assets or javascript.

I've tried loading the page in Chrome 45 and Safari (latest version) with the same result.

I have the same problem, but when using kue ui there is no problem & both UIs works fine.

[behrad]

This should be caused by the latest commits to support for embedding kue inside other express apps. please check 447f525

[TylerBrock]

That fixes it but for the simple use case I outline above (the hostname is now included) but it still doesn't respect the outer context with regards to where it's mounted.

For example I'm mounting the application at "/queue" but visiting localhost:3000/queue redirects to localhost:3000/active instead of localhost:3000/queue/active

[TylerBrock]

It seems I can work around it by specifying a path when mounting kue in the sub-app by specifying app.use('/queue', app.kue) but it prevents it from being mounted somewhere besides /queue in the parent application.

Thanks for maintaining this btw. Great stuff.

Any one can provide a more general PR to handle all scenarios?

Hi,
i was able to fix it. please take a look to PR.

[behrad]

does this work for both express 3 and express 4 !?

[azimgd]

I've tried with express 4 only, let me recheck with express 3 as well.

[azimgd]

Redirection from subfolder is failing. on express 3

[behrad]

I believe all two cases for both express versions (4 scenarios) should be considered to be fixed.
Thank you @azimgd

[azimgd]

This fix tested both on express v3 and v4, redirection on root and subfolder is working now. Please review.

[behrad]

nice @azimgd
Are you using kue-ui? Can you test that if does work too?

[azimgd]

I had some troubles with running kue-ui itself, but setting it up as described in documentation and accessing kue interface via /api produces correct redirections.

hostname.dev/subfolder/api/ -> hostname.dev/subfolder/api/active
hostname.dev:3000/api/ -> hostname.dev:3000/api/active

[behrad]

i will test and merge this in a few days @azimgd

[azimgd]

Any updates on this @behrad ?

[behrad]

tested and merged

[maxcnunes]

Could you please publish a new version including this fix? Thanks.

[behrad]

Done!
