📄 Description

Brief summary

Updates README and gives an example on how to make websockets work using Apache as a reverse proxy.

Which issue is fixed?

#3810 - updating README

In-depth Description

After PR #3810, one comment proposes to update the README to say RewriteRule (.*)/audiobookshelf/?(.*) "ws://127.0.0.1:<audiobookshelf_port>/audiobookshelf/$2" [P,L]. However, this did not work for me.
Also, it looks like other users are seeing issues with setting up web sockets too using the latest version, but it is not clear if the proposal above was tried.

How have you tested this?

On Apache 2.4.62, with the following configuration:
<Location /audiobookshelf>
ProxyPreserveHost on
ProxyPass http://${my_docker_host}:80/audiobookshelf upgrade=websocket
ProxyPassReverse http://${my_docker_host>:80/audiobookshelf
