It's currently broken (doesn't rewrite subsequent links),
and is of questionable use. It was introduced during a time
when PHP didn't have a built-in webserver (I think).
Virtually ever webserver will have rewriting capabilities these days (even IIS!),
and if you struggle with the setup as a new user, you can just fall back to PHP's built-in webserver.
This doesn't affect installation capabilities, since these are triggered via install.php.
NEW: URL generation now handled by pluggable ResourceURLGenerator service.
NEW: Requirements::javascript() and Requirements::css() now support “vendor/package:resource” syntax.
These changes will make it easier to us to fully abstract:
- file access from module location
- file location from URL generation
API: ModulePath template global now takes any composer package name.

BUG Fix up test regressions
FIX director references to request object
API Move all middlewares to common namespace
API Implement RequestHandlerMiddlewareAdapter
ENHANCEMENT Improve IP address parsing
Fix up PHPDoc / psr2 linting
BUG Fix property parsing in TrustedProxyMiddleware
BUG Fix Director::is_https()
NEW: Add HTMLMiddlewareAware trait to HTTPApplication, Director, and RequestHandler
NEW: Allow service specs to be passed to Director rules.
This refactor of the controller middlewares takes a service definition
approach rather than a static-method-and-config approach that Director
historically had.
The use of a trait for middleware means that the Middlewares array
property can be defined on RequestHandler, Director, and HTTPApplication
objects in the same way.
NEW: Pass HTTPRequest to session
NEW: Pass HTTPReuqest optionally to Director statics
The session handler now expects to operate on a specific
HTTPRequest object.
API: SS_TRUSTED_PROXY_HOST_HEADER replace with middleware config
API: SS_TRUSTED_PROXY_PROTOCOL_HEADER replace with middleware config
API: SS_TRUSTED_PROXY_IP_HEADER replace with middleware config
API: Front-End-Https = “on” header no longer supported
This middleware replaces the TRUSTED_PROXY setting and shifts its
configuration out of the env vars and bootstrap and into the Director
flow.
NEW: Add HTTPRequest::setIP()
API: Rely on HTTPRequestBuilder to set scheme and IP
These changes tidy up HTTPRequest making it a container for information
and removing special logic from it.
This makes it less feature-rich: it doesn’t contain trusted-proxy logic.
This will be able to provided by a middleware.
The new getScheme() method is designed to be closish to PSR-7’s
getUri()->getScheme() equivalent.
There are no more direct $_SERVER references in HTTPRequest.
HTTPRequest is provided as a service so that global references for
session, hostname, etc can be facilitated. It’s a bit of a hack and
should be avoided but we’re unlikely to scrub it completely from the
Silverstripe 4 code.
NEW: Allow application of HTTPMiddleware to Director.
Director can now use the same HTTPMiddleware objects as the app object.
They can be applied either globally or pre-rule.
