Description

Description

I've looked just about everywhere I can think and can't find if there is an option for this. Having followed the install steps here: https://theia-ide.org/docs/composing_applications/ I am running Theia behind a reverse proxy (nginx), but alongside other apps. I would ideally like to access it at localhost/theia (as opposed to the root of localhost), but I can find no way to specify the bind point. nginx is correctly forwarding requests on localhost/theia to localhost:3000, but I receive a "Cannot GET" error.

Is this possible?

Research direction
Investigate Theia's server configuration options for setting a base path. Check the existing documentation at https://theia ide.org/docs/composing applications/ for any mention of bind URL. Review the comments in this issue for any suggested solutions or workarounds. Consider implementing a configuration property similar to 'homepage' or 'baseUrl' in other web applications.
