Can Actix assign subdomains?

[Th3Whit3Wolf]

The title says it all I've been using actix as a web server for a little while now and I'd like to use it for an actual website. I was wondering if

1. actix has the ability to make and handle subdomain
2. if this is something the project would be interested in
3. if I should use nginx to handle the subdomain and use actix with that

Surely the simplest solution here is 3: spin off the stuff you want served up from the subdomain into a new app bound to a different port, then tie this app to the subdomain via a new server block in nginx.

Awesome thank you! Also Actix rocks! I read through your examples for rustls, aksama templates, diesel, cookie-session, etc and has helped a lot with my web developement on rust.

From what I can tell, including a servername builder (with https://docs.rs/openssl/0.10.26/openssl/ssl/struct.SslAcceptorBuilder.html#method.set_servername_callback or similarly https://docs.rs/rustls/0.16.0/rustls/trait.ResolvesServerCert.html) ... the amount of setup required may warrant a library wrapper.

I was also looking at how to do this (along with actix/actix-net#13) and have almost found a way... based on https://old.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/cog1hz/help_a_way_to_read_the_requested_domain_name_from/?context=3

I'm a little late but I'm hoping to find some answers, and perhaps put together a library to wrap them all.
