ipfs / infra

Hi! I was trying to use the subdomain redirect config in nginx but I ran into some issues.

[emerg] 16395#16395: invalid variable name "\$ipfspath" in /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/ipfs:27

It seems like this code is giving me quite a few errors.

infra/ipfs/gateway/nginx.conf

Lines 342 to 350 in a1334dd

    
           set \$ipfspath ""; 
        
           if (\$http_host ~ ^(.+)\.(ipfs|ipns)\.dweb\.link\$) { 
        
               set \$ipfspath /\$2/\$1; 
        
           } 
        
           if (\$ipfspath = '') { 
        
               return 404; 
        
           } 
        
           rewrite "^(.*)\$" \$ipfspath\$1;

Is there something I'm missing?

I got something that works with some clever Googling.

ipfs/in-web-browsers#89

if ($http_host ~ ^(.+)\.(ipfs|ipns)\.dweb\.link$) {
  set $ipfspath /$2/$1;
  rewrite "^(.*)$" $ipfspath$1 last;
}

It seems like the configs were badly copied and auto-escaped somehow. Nginx is pretty obscure to read and write, so it's hard to figure out what was wrong. I think this issue is still valid; the configs in this repo should be corrected.

Sorry, I think this repo not being marked as archive is a mistake

Good news is this is now a feature of go-ipfs.
go-ipfs will now serve the subdomain and issue a redirect to it from /ipfs/bafywhatever automatically in the default gateway config

	set \$ipfspath "";
	if (\$http_host ~ ^(.+)\.(ipfs\|ipns)\.dweb\.link\$) {
	set \$ipfspath /\$2/\$1;
	}
	if (\$ipfspath = '') {
	return 404;
	}

	rewrite "^(.*)\$" \$ipfspath\$1;
