# OpenSlides proxy
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The proxy is the entrypoint for traffic going into an OpenSlides instance and
|
|
|
|
|
hides all the services needed for production behind a single port. On the
|
|
|
|
|
docker container this will be port 8000. An arbitrary port from the host can
|
|
|
|
|
then be forwarded to that (e.g. 443->8000).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## HTTPS
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It is possible to make use of caddy's automatic https feature in order to not
|
|
|
|
|
having to manually generate TLS certificates.
|
|
|
|
|
Set `ENABLE_AUTO_HTTPS=1` and `EXTERNAL_ADDRESS=openslides.example.com` to
|
|
|
|
|
activate it. Caddy will then retrieve a letsencrypt certificate for that
|
|
|
|
|
domain.
|
|
|
|
|
For testing a setup e.g.
|
|
|
|
|
`ACME_ENDPOINT=https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory` can also
|
|
|
|
|
be set to avoid hitting rate limits.
|
|
|
|
|
Importantly, port 80 on the host must be forwarded to port 8001 on which caddy
|
|
|
|
|
will answer the ACME-challenge during certificate retrieval.

|
|
|
Alternatively a locally generated certificate can be used by setting
|
|
|
|
|
`ENABLE_LOCAL_HTTPS=1 HTTPS_CERT_FILE=path/to/crt HTTPS_CERT_FILE=path/to/key`
|
|
|
|
|
and providing cert and key files at the specified location. This is mostly for
|
|
|
|
|
dev and testing setups and is not useful for a public domain as the cert is not
|
|
|
|
|
issued by a trusted CA and therefore not trusted by browsers. If set, this
|
|
|
|
|
overrules `ENABLE_AUTO_HTTPS`.
