Hi there. As the title says i'm trying to make it works with a reverse proxy using lighttpd. I've tried with this configuration:

$HTTP["url"] =~ "^/opengist($|/)" {
  proxy.server = ( "" => ( (
    "host" => "127.0.0.1",
    "port" => 6157
  ) ) ),
  proxy.forwarded = ( "for" => 1,
                      "host" => 1,
                      "by" => 1
  ),
  proxy.header = (
      "map-urlpath" => (
         "/opengist/"  => "/",
         "/opengist" => ""
       )
  )
}

and i can reach the homepage but it cannot access all the other resources becouse it wants files from host/assets.

Any help? Thank you!

Hello, after investigation, it's quite normal that you can't access the assets, in fact the site links won't even work properly as each of them points to a URL that starts with /, so defining a sub url from your proxy would break the site.
The site urls should start with external-url from the config for example, i can work on that or you can open a PR if you want :)

One temporary solution would be to go for a sub domain instead.

Sadly i don't have control on the domain.

@thomiceli I've just tried the last version and i want to report that the website works, but when i try to make a new gist i get an error by nginx when i click on Create (both unlisted or public): the address returns on the main domain (without the /opengist) and i got the "405 Not Allowed" error. But if i try to make a new gist going to http:https://mydomain:port, it works and will redirect correctly to https://mydomain/opengist/opengistuser/gist
