I'm not good at English, sorry.

Here is my situation:

1) Nginx listens both 80 and 443 port and forwards a request to Mojolicious 
app.

    upstream ssltest {
        server 127.0.0.1:9000;
    }


    server {
        listen 80;
        listen 443 ssl;


        server_name ssltest.server.com;


        location / {
            proxy_pass http://ssltest/;
            proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
            proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
            proxy_set_header Host $host;
            proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        }
    }


2) In the Mojolicious app, I put this code:

    get '/' => sub {
      my $c = shift;
    
      warn $c->url_for('/somepath')->to_abs;  # HERE
    
      $c->render(template => 'index');
    };


I want that `url_for('/somepath')->to_abs` returns 
`https://ssltest.server.com/somepath` or `http://.../somepath`, depending 
on which protocol I use in my browser. *But it always returns `http`*

(There is some reason that I have to create an absolute path, rather than 
relative path)


So, I've tried to search in web.

https://groups.google.com/d/msg/mojolicious/zL-c4Tx1vCk/_ihsLRsNAgAJ

This link taught me I can pass the current protocol(http or https) to the 
Mojo app via a custom header `X-Forward-Proto`. However, url_for() still 
returned only `http`.

Then I tried such code:

    warn $c->url_for('/somepath')->to_abs->scheme(
      $c->req->headers->header('X-Forwarded-Proto')
    );


It worked! But now I have to modify every occurrences of `url_for->to_abs` 
in the code.

Next, I found this link: https://stackoverflow.com/a/27834805/1150133
which uses a hook to modify `$c->req->url->base` itself. I tried to apply 
it:

    # change 'scheme' of request url
    hook 'before_dispatch' => sub {
      my $c = shift;
      $c->req->url->base->scheme( $c->req->headers->header(
'X-Forwarded-Proto'));
    };
    
    get '/' => sub {
      my $c = shift;
    
      # url_for() seems to refer the request url to determine new url
      warn $c->url_for('/somepath')->to_abs;
    
      $c->render(template => 'index');
    };


It worked very well.

*Now I want to know whether this is a correct way or not. Is there any 
problem that would occur? Is there a better or the best way to acquire my 
goal?*

Any advice would be appreciated.
