StripPrefix

Removing Prefixes From the Path Before Forwarding the Request {: .subtitle }

Remove the specified prefixes from the URL path.

Configuration Options

General

The StripPrefix middleware strips the matching path prefix and stores it in a X-Forwarded-Prefix header.

!!! tip

Use a `StripPrefix` middleware if your backend listens on the root path (`/`) but should be exposed on a specific prefix.

prefixes

The prefixes option defines the prefixes to strip from the request URL.

For instance, /products also matches /products/shoes and /products/shirts.

If your backend is serving assets (e.g., images or JavaScript files), it can use the X-Forwarded-Prefix header to properly construct relative URLs. Using the previous example, the backend should return /products/shoes/image.png (and not /images.png, which Traefik would likely not be able to associate with the same backend).

forceSlash

Optional, Default=true

The forceSlash option ensures the resulting stripped path is not the empty string, by replacing it with / when necessary.

This option was added to keep the initial (non-intuitive) behavior of this middleware, in order to avoid introducing a breaking change.

It is recommended to explicitly set forceSlash to false.
