I had the need to run CE with a prefixed URL, so instead of http://localhost/
using http://localhost/ce/ by specifying
ActionController::Base.relative_url_root.
There were a few locations in the CE code base that needed changing.
For example (for a more complete set of changes see the GitHub
repository mentioned below):
./app/views/base/_about_nav.html.haml
%a{:href=>"/faq"}= :frequently_asked_questions.l
%a{:href=>"/about"}=:about_site.l(:site =>
AppConfig.community_name)
%a{:href=>"/advertise"}
...
./app/views/admin/users.html.haml
- form_tag '/admin/users', :class => 'MainForm' do
./app/views/users/forgot_password.html.haml
- form_tag '/forgot_password', :class => 'MainForm' do
./app/views/users/forgot_username.html.haml
- form_tag '/forgot_username', :class => 'MainForm' do
./app/views/users/resend_activation.html.haml
- form_tag '/resend_activation', :class => 'MainForm' do
...
... and APP_URL references.
I have created a fork at GitHub and made changes to the edge branch
(see http://github.com/a5sk4s/communityengine/tree/edge).
Generally, I replaced APP_URL with home_url, removing some '/'s as
well, except for
./app/models/user_notifier.rb
ActionMailer::Base.default_url_options[:host] = APP_URL.sub
('http://', '')
./community_engine_setup_template.rb
environment "\nAPP_URL = \"http://localhost:3000\"";, :env => env
environment "\nAPP_URL = \"http://#{app_url}\"";, :env =>
'production'
which I left as they were. I'm not sure where
ActionMailer::Base.default_url_options[:host] is used or what the
changes in community_engine_setup_template.rb need to be. I would
like to aim at eliminating APP_URL all together.
All link references where replaced by the corresponding route urls, so
for example '/' with home_url, '/faq' with faq_url, and '/
forgot_password' with forgot_password_url.
I ran rake community_engine:test, but can't really test it right now
as for the necessary setup.
The other thing that I noticed, but haven't changed yet is that the
google site search cof value contains
S:http://#{APP_URL}
which expands to
S:http://http://localhost/
I believe that this needs to be S:#{APP_URL} (or better: S:#
{home_url}).
Please review and let me know if you are interested in moving this
back into the edge code base. Do I send you a pull_request? - never
done it.
