Treat the X-Forwarded-Host header as the Host header

## Installation

Install this plugin in the same environment as Datasette.

    $ datasette install datasette-x-forwarded-host

## Usage

Once installed, Datasette will replace the `host` header with the content of the incoming `x-forwarded-host` header.

This helps Datasette generate links to new pages that work when hosted behind a proxy that rewrites the `host` header.

Only use this plugin in deployment environmens where you know the `x-forwarded-host` header can be trusted!

This has been tested on GitHub Codespaces.

## Development

To set up this plugin locally, first checkout the code. Then create a new virtual environment:

    cd datasette-x-forwarded-host
    python3 -mvenv venv
    source venv/bin/activate

Or if you are using `pipenv`:

    pipenv shell

Now install the dependencies and test dependencies:

    pip install -e '.[test]'

To run the tests:

    pytest
