How to set base URL for remoting?

[Zalarian]

Hi, I was wondering if there was a way to set the base URL for a remoting service? I have a couple different backends I'd like to be able to share code with my frontend.

This is a use case I haven't tried TBH. You might have success setting a backend for all your remote calls using the following (untested) in your client project startup:

builder.Services.AddRemoting(builder.HostEnvironment, fun httpContext ->
    httpContext.BaseAddress <- System.Uri("https://your-backend")
) |> ignore

But there is currently no way to use different backends for different remote APIs. This would be a welcome contribution though!

Sure I am working with someone and we came across this issue. I think we'd be happy to give it a shot. What's the process for contributing?

I'm super happy to see this be finished. We took a crack at it and never came to a solution!
