upload.js doesn't respect domain_name

[dakejahl]

flight_review/app/plot_app/static/js/upload.js

Lines 100 to 102 in a16c3e7

	type: 'POST',
	url: '/upload',
	data: form_data,

Problem
If the page isn't hosted at the root of the server (behind reverse proxy, say at jetson.local/flight-review) the upload path is incorrect.

Solutions
I'm not sure the best way to solve this. I tried using window.location.pathname but this doesn't work if you navigate using the Upload href on the top toolbar, since the path will then be jetson.local/flight-review/upload

Questions

• Should we load the config.ini into js so we can simply preface /upload with the domain_name?
• Can we leverage the python upload.py rather than maintain a js and python upload?
• Or can this be solved within nginx by remapping request paths?

I would take the path from the configuration. It can be stored in main.js, which goes through the template parsing.
