Question: Using code-server with nginx and base path appended

[Lesmiscore]

I expose (old) code-server via nginx, with the base path set. (e.g. expose code-server at /vs-code/)
(SSL is configured at nginx, so I don't need SSL on code-server.)
Is it possible to use code-server with the base path in the current version? If it's possible, how should I configure code-server?

@nao20010128nao if code server doesn't have the ability to set base path, you can always setup nginx to rewrite requests.

See the Deep Ocean tutorial I put in #1741

Yup, the critical part is the trailing slash on proxy_pass.

    location /vs-code/ {
      proxy_pass http://localhost:8080/;

That's what makes nginx rewrite the URL without the base path.

[nhooyr]

Makes sense, all our links are relative otherwise so that's why --base-path was removed.
