Hi Aaron. You can tell Rack that it should be serving all requests at a
specific path beneath the root. Sinatra uses Rack, and all paths within
Nesta should then (relative to the root directory) be resolved okay. I
haven't done it myself for quite some time though.
See the Rack::Builder docs for an example (specifically, the `map` call in
the example at the top):
http://rack.rubyforge.org/doc/classes/Rack/Builder.html
You can use the Rack::Builder API in your site's config.ru file.
Max and Micah did a bunch of work relating to running Nesta relative to a
specific path a year or so ago. You can find a lot of it (and links to bug
reports that discuss this stuff in more detail) from here:
https://github.com/gma/nesta/commit/282c70c51f15edad4b34eaacbff9faad1cf9f2cd
If you get totally stuck feel free to send me more details, but I'd need
nginx config, a copy of your site's code (e.g. access to a git repo) and a
clear description of exactly what you'd like it to do. It might take me a
few days to get to it though...
Cheers,
Graham
