`BASE_URL` variable not being validated

Thank you for your work on these dumb apps. I have packaged the 6 apps to be easily installed with YunoHost.

Describe the bug
I am serving DumbDrop thought NGINX proxy
I have an issue with the BASE_URL variable not being validated:
https://paste.yunohost.org/aqulumigug

I have trier https://mydomain.tld, http://localhost:myport, http://127.0.0.1:myport, I get the same error

Thanks for your help

@ericgaspar i haven't used YunoHost but this looks more like an issue with how YunoHost is setting up the env variables. looking at the .env config for that YunoHost repo it looks like you dont need to include the protocol (https://)

in the meantime - when installing and supplying a domain, i would try putting in your domain without the protocol (https://) like this subdomain.mydomain.tld or mydomain.tld and seeing if that works! (however this does require the domain to be secure/https):

• https://github.com/YunoHost-Apps/dumbdrop_ynh/blob/bb17cdd7f09434496c97b603026fd8f4de8364b6/conf/.env
• from the looks of it, it's probably adding the BASE_URL as https://https://mydomain.tld (which is not a valid url)

I would recommend that YunoHost changes their env to remove the string interpolation and so that you can supply a base url with either protocol
