Custom Domain Support

Custom Domain Support

A highly-requested feature of Puter is to support access to published websites on Puter through a domain that is not the domain the Puter instance is hosted on. This requires:

• A mechanism to verify ownership of domains
• Configuration for domain owners to specify which site a domain will direct to
• WebServerService needs to allow the Host header values that specify a verified and configured domain name, even when allow_all_host_values is false.

Recommendations

• Add a table similar to subdomains. Perhaps call it domains.
• Add a middleware like the puter.site middleware to handle domains.
• Add an entity storage implementation for sites.
  • Add the "mapping" (model) and export it.
  • Register an instance of EntityStoreService called es:domains.
• This may or may not be relevant: there's a file called _default.js; if you don't know it's there, it's kind of hard to find.
