Config route

[menreiki]

I'm deploying Mozaik dashboard in the subdirectory(e.g. localhost:8001/x/y) inside another react app (e.g. localhost:8001). All apps are running inside their own docker containers. I had the issue not being able to fetch config. And here is the way I solved it. Is there some other proper way to do it?

mozaik/packages/ui/src/actions/configurationActions.js
-        return fetch('/config')
+        const baseUrl = process.env.REACT_APP_BASE_URL || ''
+        return fetch(baseUrl + '/config')

where I add REACT_APP_BASE_URL=localhost:8001/x/y in Dockerfile of the dashboard app.

I do not have much exp with react, so any advice or lead is appreciated.

@delikatessa are you using v1 or v2 of Mozaik?

v2

I think what you did is probably fine. My guess though is you might be able to come up with a more dynamic solution using Node's path that does not require defining the location as an environment variable. But if that works for you, then I think you're good.

@brianespinosa thanks for the feedback! I will look into it. The thing is I don't want to fork the project just for this change.
