# Routing and Ontime Cloud
|
|
|
|
Use for navigation, URLs, endpoints, websockets, auth, cookies, assets, redirects, presets, or local-storage scope.
|
|
|
|
## Deployment invariant
|
|
|
|
Support root and runtime-prefixed deployments:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
local: http://localhost:4001/timer
|
|
cloud: https://cloud.example/client-hash/timer
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Prefix is deployment data. Never assume `/`.
|
|
|
|
## Client
|
|
|
|
- `apps/client/src/externals.ts`: derives `baseURI`, `serverURL`, `websocketUrl` from document base/current origin.
|
|
- `BrowserRouter`: uses `baseURI` basename.
|
|
- APIs/assets: use `common/api/constants.ts` or base-aware helpers.
|
|
- App navigation: use React Router. Never strip/guess/re-add prefix from `window.location.pathname`.
|
|
- Persisted browser state: use existing base-aware scoping where prefixes need isolation.
|
|
|
|
## Server
|
|
|
|
- `updateRouterPrefix()` in `apps/server/src/externals.ts`: normalises `ROUTER_PREFIX`.
|
|
- `apps/server/src/app.ts`: mounts routes below that prefix.
|
|
- Domain routers: paths relative to mount; never derive prefix.
|
|
- Websockets, auth redirects, cookie paths, share URLs: preserve prefix.
|
|
|
|
## URL rules
|
|
|
|
Use `URL`, React Router, or existing helpers instead of string manipulation. Preserve:
|
|
|
|
- leading/trailing slashes and runtime prefix;
|
|
- query params, auth tokens, navigation locks;
|
|
- preset aliases and canonical view paths;
|
|
- `https`/`wss` behind proxies;
|
|
- static/user asset paths.
|
|
|
|
Never infer Ontime Cloud from hostname alone. Generated base markup marks cloud; runtime prefixes also serve non-cloud reverse proxies.
|
|
|
|
## Cloud capabilities
|
|
|
|
Gate unavailable local-network integrations in cloud, including OSC output. Keep server behaviour and UI availability aligned.
|
|
|
|
## Verification
|
|
|
|
Test both root and a prefix such as `/client-hash`. Include relevant queries, redirects, cookies, websocket paths, presets, assets. Root-only routing coverage is incomplete.
