Zigbee2MQTT now has a web GUI, which makes it *way* easier to manage the
Zigbee network. Now that I've got all the Philips Hue bulbs controlled
by Zigbee2MQTT instead of the Hue Hub, having access to the GUI is
awesome.
ZwaveJS2Mqtt includes a very powerful web-based UI for configuring and
controlling the Z-Wave network. This functionality is no longer
available within Home Assistant itself, so being able to access the
ZwaveJS2Mqtt UI is crucial to operating the network.
I wanted to make the UI available at */zwave/*, which requires using
*mod_rewrite* to conditionally proxy requests based on the `Connection`
HTTP header, since the UI passes both HTTP and WebSocket requests to the
same paths. *mod_rewrite* configuration is not inherited from the main
server configuration to virtual hosts, so the
`RewriteRule`/`RewriteCond` directives have to be specified within the
`<VirtualHost>` block. This means that the Home Assistant proxy
configuration has to be within its own virtual host, and the
Zwavejs2Mqtt configuration has to be there as well.
