Subdomains Now Resolve on Applications' nanoapp.io Domains
An update was made to Shaman, the project that powers the Nanobox nameserver responsible for resolving *.nanoapp.io
domains, that allows all sub-subdomains on your apps' *.nanoapp.io
urls to successfully resolve. Previously, only the assigned application url, appname.nanoapp.io
, would resolve successfully.
Easily Test Subdomains
Many web applications use subdomains to isolate functionality, but in order to test those subdomains on a deployed app, you had to purchase and point a custom domain at your app. This new functionality allows Nanobox users to test subdomains using the applications' provided nanoapp.io
url.
In Practice
Every app deployed with Nanobox gets a nanoapp.io
domain using the pattern appname.nanoapp.io
or, for team apps, teamname-appname.nanoapp.io
. Now all of the following domains will resolve successfully to your deployed application:
# Individual User Application
api.appname.nanoapp.io
blog.appname.nanoapp.io
whatever.appname.nanoapp.io
etc.appname.nanoapp.io
# Team Application
api.teamname-appname.nanoapp.io
blog.teamname-appname.nanoapp.io
whatever.teamname-appname.nanoapp.io
etc.teamname-appname.nanoapp.io
