Mediaproxy

The configuration is located in /config.ion.

The configuration file itself is optional.

All properties in the configuration file are also optional.

Project config files inherit properties from tenant config files which inherit from the global defaults as given below.

See URL Connections for detailed description of the connection configuration.

Matching Connections to URLs​

HTTP requests to retrieve image resources and other asset for priint cloud rendering are delegated to the MediaProxy.

MediaProxy will only execute such requests if the destination URLs is "white-listed" in the project configuration.

The project configuration contains a list of connection configurations identified by their url property.

If an image request is delegated to the proxy its URL is matched against the list of configured connections. The best matching configuration is the configuration with the longest matching URL part (computed from the start of the URL).

If no matching configuration is found a 403 FORBIDDEN error code is produced by the media proxy.
