Feature request: Support for baseUrl or Prefix

[fossison]

Shoko should support baseUrl or prefix settings, either through the web interface (and thus manually set within the application) or through the nginx header X-Script-Path (and thus configured at the server level instead, with Shoko operating as expected when the header is passed).

Use case: Placing Shoko behind a reverse proxy. Shoko right now can only be hosted on the root directory on a server instance, whether it be on a subdomain or main domain. This is because Shoko has no way to rewrite the urls when placed behind a reverse proxy.

Adding support for this would enable reverse proxy use for shoko using a location directive, e.g.

location /shoko/ {
    proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8111/;
}

This will likely not happen for a while as there is APIs exposed as part of Shoko Server’s support for Desktop that can be considered relatively insecure.

further to this, at a web server level (like nginx) you can usually rewrite URLs like this; https://www.nginx.com/blog/creating-nginx-rewrite-rules/
