CouchDB connection request does ignore subfolders in Server URL field

[thrdroom]

The Bug:
Im running couchdb behind an nginx reverse proxy which is exposed via a subfolder:

example: https://mydomain.com/mycouchdb/

Database name is mynicedb
Username is myusername

when i try to connect nomie to the couchdb i enter https://mydomain.com/mycouchdb/ as my server url, and mynicedb as my database name.

Nomie then gives an error NetworkError when attempting to fetch resource because nomie does try to connect via the following url https://mydomain.com/mynicedb. It does completely ignore the subfolder /mycouchdb/ from the server url field.

Expected behaviour:
Nomie should honor subfolders in the server url field.

Can you try entering https://mydomain.com as your server url and mycouchdb/mynicedb as your database name?

yes, this way was actually my workaround to get the app running. The issue should still be addressed for new users, who don't know how to debug the error message.

Perhaps it would be less confusing to have a single text field for the full CouchDb URL (instead of having a separate field for database name)?

No, i think that would be even more confusing if users would have to figure out how to structure the URL correctly.
The "database name" field itself is fine, and not really confusing. But the field should just be used for the databasename and not parts of the "Server URL". The problem is that the "Server URL" field does strip away everything from an URL that comes after the first / behind the domains tld-ending.

The filter of the "Server URL" has to be modified to respect subdirectories that are put into the field and not only the domain name and domainending.
