Tiles URL starts with "https,http,http://..."

[stevage]

I'm getting a weird issue with a server hosted on Glitch where the tileJSON contains this:

"tiles":["https,http,http://demo-tessera.glitch.me/lgas/{z}/{x}/{y}.pbf"

Obviously that's not a usable tile endpoint, so Mapbox-GL-JS chokes on it.

I'm mystified why this is happening or what to do about it.

Any ideas?

Ok, so the issue seems to be that for some reason Glitch is setting the x-forwarded-proto header to this:

https,http,http

Whereas Tessera is assuming it will always be a single protocol. Annoyingly it doesn't seem to be a standard so there's no way to say who's right.

If I had to guess, the convention is probably to make them comma-delimited and append to the list, à la https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/X-Forwarded-For#Syntax

I merged this for now, but it may make sense to attempt to split the list and shift the first element off, since that's what's seen by a client.

Oh, thanks - that makes sense. Not something I know much about.
