Path problem

[cabrinoob]

Hi,
I have a use case I cannot resolve with fabio:

I have 2 services "Jack" and "John". Jack has two routes /api/dosomething and /api/dootherthing
John has one route /api/hellojohn

John and Jack are deployed through Docker on the same host and registrator registers them into consul. But I have a path problem : John and Jack are using the same prefix (/api). How can I register them into consul.

I tried to tag them with urlprefix-jack/ and urlprefix-john/ but when I call http://fabio-proxy:9999/john/api/hellojohn I have a 404 error.

I need that http://fabio-proxy:9999/**john**/api/\* will be redirected to http://docker-host:1234/api/*
and http://fabio-proxy:9999/**jack**/api/\* to http://docker-host:5678/api/*

thank you for your help

You have two options:

1. All services register their specific routes, e.g. jack urlprefix-/api/a, urlprefix-/api/b and for john urlprefix-/api/c
2. You register one service with /api and the other ones with their specific routes. This makes sense if hack has urlprefix-/api/a-x and john has only urlprefix-/api/z

Also, path stripping is not implemented right now. See #44 So if the external URL is http://host.com/john/api then your service needs to register AND respond to /john/api

ok, thank you. It's clearer.
