Enable option to replace [TEAM_NAME].[DOMAIN] with [IP ADDRESS]/[TEAM_NAME] for local installs

[cloudtrends]

hi team,

I am running mattermost on my local centos , I had not config the domain by using the IP address directly, such as below :

http://1.1.1.1:8065/

There are an input box on home page told me that " Enter your team's domain. " .

When I click the " Sign up " button , the browser redirect to : http://www.1.1.1:8065 , which of course can not visit .

What my question is , how can I "Sign up" my own test domain for login ?

thanks

Hi @cloudtrends, you can either use Docker and http://dockerhost:8065/, or map in a domain, direct use of an IP address is not supported in the first release. This is a known issue and we should hopefully see a pull request for master by end of next week to address this, and we'll have a new major build (going through stabilization and test pass) in about 4 weeks,

hi @it33 ,

Following your guide, I map my IP to a domain , such as : mm.com:8065

When I click the signup button , the browser redirect to : www.com:8065

Is there exists any location for config a test domain by default ?

thanks

In order for this to work you need to map a wildcard domain of the form "*.domain.tld". This will cause any subdomain to redirect to the same IP. Then you can visit www.domain.tld and it should work.

There are several tickets relating to this and an approved Feature Request to make this easier: http://mattermost.uservoice.com/forums/306457-general/suggestions/8677084-add-ability-to-use-ip-address-team-instead-of-te

Queuing for our 0.6.0 release that should be around end of the month, and there may be a pull request for this feature by end of next week,

Waiting for this issue to be solved, I'm eager to put the software on test
