Request to Spring Boot Application Local vs Prod

Question

I have a Spring Boot Application without property server.servlet.context-path configured in my application.yml. For access anyone endpoint local (dev), I make a request without context path.

Example:

curl --location --request GET 'http://localhost:8080/foo/bar'

Now think so, we have the context path or application with name app.

In the production environment I need to make the request with the context path. Example:

curl --location --request GET 'http://server.com/app/foo/bar'

I have already configured environment in Postman:

ENVIRONMENT	VARIABLE	CURRENT VALUE
LOCAL	host	http://localhost:8080
PROD	host	http://server.com

To make the request in Postman, I use:

LOCAL: {{host}}/foo/bar

PROD: {{host}}/app/foo/bar <-- See that here I need pass the context path.

I would like to change the environment from Postman without add or remove the context path name of request. Something as optional variable for context path. Someone help me.

You can include /app path in your Production Environment {{host}} variable, and keep same paths when switching between environments.
