Wiki: nginx reverse proxy for wiki.js on docker not working when location path is specified

[Prakkie]

Actual behavior

When nginx is configured with location path like

    location /**wiki** {
         proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
         proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
         proxy_pass http://base11.me.org:8181;
         proxy_http_version 1.1;
         proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
         proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
         proxy_next_upstream error timeout http_502 http_503 http_504;
         proxy_set_header   X-Forwarded-For  $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
     }

404 error happens. Redirect happens from:
https://host.me.org/wiki
to
https://host.me.org/login

Expected behavior

redirect to https://host.me.org/wiki/login

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Set nginx conf as mentioned above.
Set config.yml host as host: https://host.me.org/wiki

Please let me know if I am missing something..
Thanks..

You cannot use a subdirectory. Wiki.js must run at the root level.

That's so helpful, not!

At least you should take this as a room for improvement, as a feature request. I was just thinking of installing wiki.js and I'm stuck behind a docker host that does not have a privilege of having subdomains for each spawned container and only have to make do with an nginx reverse proxy. If wiki.js can't support sitting behind it then goodbye.

That is really bad - I have the same scenario here. Don't know how complicated this would be to implement, but it too prevents me from using wikijs.

I listed the reasons here why this won't be supported:

I reverted to providing the service on an alternative port - which is acceptable in our scenario.
