plausible-hosting/reverse-proxy

This directory contains pre-made configurations for various reverse proxies. Which flavor you should choose depends on your setup.

No existing reverse proxy

If you aren't running an existing reverse proxy, then you can use the caddy-gen based docker-compose file. Update it to include the domain name you use for your server, then combine it with the existing docker-compose files:

$ docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f reverse-proxy/docker-compose.caddy-gen.yml up

Existing reverse proxy

If you are already running a reverse proxy, then the above will not work as it will clash with the existing port bindings. You should instead use one of the available configuration files:

NGINX

If you already have NGINX running as a system service, use the configuration file in the nginx directory.

Edit the file reverse-proxy/nginx/plausible to contain the domain name you use for your server, then copy it into NGINX's configuration folder. Enable it by creating a symlink in NGINX's enabled sites folder. Finally use Certbot to create a TLS certificate for your site:

$ sudo cp reverse-proxy/nginx/plausible /etc/nginx/sites-available
$ sudo ln -s /etc/nginx/sites-available/plausible /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/plausible
$ sudo certbot --nginx

Traefik 2

If you already have a Traefik container running on Docker, use the docker-compose file in the traefik directory. Note that it assumes that your Traefik container is set up to support certificate generation.

Edit the file reverse-proxy/traefik/docker-compose.traefik.yml to contain the domain name you use for your server, then combine it with the existing docker-compose files:

$ docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml -f reverse-proxy/traefik/docker-compose.traefik.yml up
