# Nginx Docker reverse proxy
---
I no longer reccomend using nginx. Caddy Server is the only reverse proxy and web tool I would reccomend for self hosting local or public web applications.
---
Access your web application via http://server/name rather than http://server:PORT by running this code. The code here can be upgraded to allow https by getting a certificate.
Nginx is also great for serving http file servers.
Nginx is however more complex to setup than more modern options like Caddy server, which I have started using isntread of NGINX.
## Software Dependencies
This code uses the following dependencies:
- `docker`
## Usage
1. clone this repository
```
git clone https://github.com/BrianLesko/reverse-proxy-nginx-docker
```
2. make sure your app is running at your IP:PORT
3. edit the nginx.conf file and change the port and pick an appname
```
location /appname {
proxy_pass http://host.docker.internal:*8501*;
...
```
4. run start.sh
```
./start.sh
```
5. Navigate to your application
servername/appname
## About
Running your web apps with a reverse proxy is more user friendly, even necessary for production level deployment. I wrote this repository with 3 intented use cases. One, to use this code to deploy
a vacation planning app for management level employees at a local business. Two, to access multiple apps easier related to a mobile robot I built. And three, to deploy various automation service softwares.
