Hi everybody.

How should I setup reverse proxy for my services? I’ve got things like jellyfin, immich a bitwarden running on my Debian server in docker. So should i install something like nginx for each of these also in docker? Or should I install it from repository and make configs for each of these docker services?

Btw I have no idea how to use something like nginx or caddy but i would still like to learn.

Also can you use nginx for multiple services on the same port like(443)?

    Caddy

    It’s three lines of configuration

    jellyfin.example.com {
      reverse_proxy http://localhost:8083/
    }
    

    Automatic https with let’sencrypt, simplicity of a single binary, downgrade is as simple as replace binary & restart service.

        1. you rent a domain

        2. in the config (provided by the service where you rented the domain) you set it to point to the IP of the device where you run caddy

        3. the service tells the relevant global DNS servers your setting

        4. your DNS does a DNS lookup and a DNS server returns the IP you configured it to point to


        Depending on the DNS you use, you can manually add entries to do 1-3 differently, but that will only work for devices that use your DNS and is hard.

          Is this a local address or a public IP address?

          I just want the resolving internal to my network but I never got it working right.
