documentation at more than one folder shared about weborf HOT 7 CLOSED

Let me try to explain better the question.
Adding another folder at /etc/weborf.d/joe.conf like this

basedir=/home/joe
use-mime=true
user=joe
group=joe
cachedir=/var/cache/weborf
port=81

works using the server ip at port 81

what I am asking is how to only use port 80 (or 8080 ) and share by weborf as

ip/joe instead of ip:81

from weborf.

You have to use virtual hosts for that.

They're supported but I haven't used them in a while. Time to write at least a test for them!

from weborf.

Seems that virtual host thing still works.

It still seems to me that Weborf always needs to assign a unique port number to each site. From what I read it should be possible to use reverse proxy with Nginx or Apache to distribute the requests to the Weborf instances on each port but that would destroy the beauty of Weborf :-)

So, please, give an example.

from weborf.

No need to do different ports on different sites.

See for example how it's done in the test

weborf -p 12349 --virtual localhost:12349=site1,127.0.0.1:12349=site2 -b site1

for port 80 you'd do

weborf -p 80 --virtual localhost=site1,127.0.0.1=site2 -b site1

This is already documented.

Sorry, I tried to understand but was not able to apply to the scenario of 2 users, say fernando and joe, respectively at /home/fernando/ and /home/joe/ at server 192.168.1.2 pretending to display by http://192.168.1.2/fernando and http://192.168.1.2/joe as web ( later it would change to a specific folder )

Documentation does exist, as at these:
https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/man5/weborf.conf.5.html
https://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/bionic/en/man1/weborf.1.html
and implementation has some examples at
/usr/share/doc/weborf/examples/
as
examples/auth.py
examples/weborf_auth.c
examples/xinetd.conf
examples/weborf_auth_dav.c
examples/weborf_auth.service

however I miss the virtual documentation example
one can find on the virtual subject these:

   -V, --virtual
          Enables weborf to use virtualhosts. The  basedir  supplied  with  -b  will  be  the
          default  one  (will  be  used if the requested host is unknown).  Every virtualhost
          must be in the form host[:port]=basedir. The port must be  specified  if  the  port
          used  is  different  than  80.  And the basedir must end with a /. To separate many
          virtualhosts, use a  comma,  and  avoid  spaces.   To  make  weborf  use  different
          virtualhosts  on  different  ports,  it  will  be necessary to launch many weborf's
          processes.

and

virtual
This directive is used to enable virtualhosts. One line is needed for each port.
The format is: virtual#port#domain1=basedir1,domain2=basedir2

However I miss to translate that into an example.

Aaaah, that's what you want to do.

Just make symlinks inside the root web directory, and make sure that the linked directories are readable from the user that is running weborf.
