Allow a custom path for Ghost admin

I’m running ghost:2.1.2-alpine and I’m trying to host the /ghost panel under a separate domain. I’m doing this because I have multiple ghost installations and I want one Google-based OAuth for all installations.

Now, I’m supplying an environment variable to the docker continer in the form of:

admin__url: "https://ghost.domain.mine/xyz/"

But despite that the configuration is ignored, and when the API call to /ghost/api/v0.1/configuration/ is made it is made for:

https://ghost.domain.mine/ghost/api/v0.1/configuration/

Which suggests to me that the xyz/ sub-path of the admin__url argument is ignored. Why is this?

My proxy config:

   location /xyz {
       rewrite /xyz/(.*) /ghost/$1 break;
       proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8081/ghost;
       proxy_redirect https://ghost.domain.mine/ghost/ /xyz/;
       proxy_set_header Host $host;
       proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
       proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
       proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
   }

I see, that is a real pain…

That being said, it is something we would be happy to accept a PR for slightly_smiling_face

I wish I had the time to help you with this, but as it stands I am a single devops for a whole company. Maybe in the future. for now I’ll probably implement a hack around this using domains. Thanks for explaining this.
