Description

Attached is a patch to allow for a default environment to be given when using TRAC_ENV_PARENT_DIR. This means that instead of a simple listing, you can have a full Trac at the base of a domain. The logic is simple, though the code may need to be cleaned up a bit. The patch is against a current checkout (r3369 for the file).

Priority: highlow

Instead of modifying the PATH_INFO and SCRIPT_NAME environment variables it's probably better to do a 302 (MOVED TEMPORARILY) redirect. I'm also not totally convinced that this should be handled by Trac at all, it might be better to let the web-server take care of this.

I'm setting the priority to low since this should not block 0.10.

comment:2 by coderanger@…, 19 years ago

There is no way for the webserver to do this, as it doesn't know what paths are valid envs. The reason to not do a redirect is to maintain the idea that there is a normal Trac rooted at the given directory. The whole concept is roughly just being able to give both TRAC_ENV_DIR and TRAC_ENV_PARENT_DIR for the same location.

comment:3 by Matthew Good, 19 years ago

The webserver doesn't need to know about the other environments. If you have Trac installed at "/projects" you could redirect "/projects" to "/projects/default". Accesses to the other project paths would be handled normally.

comment:4 by coderanger@…, 19 years ago

That won't help for "www.example.com/wiki". If / is configued as a parent_dir, then it will try to find an env named "wiki", instead of figuring out what was meant. The major advantage of this is cosmetic as I want to have my website at / instead of /main.

Milestone: 0.100.11

As there's no consensus on that yet, we should defer the patch to later, 0.11 or 0.10.1 when that milestone gets created.

Milestone: 0.11.30.13

Nor is it likely to be 0.11-stable at this point. Moving it.
