# proxy-gen

Tiny script to generate an nginx-based proxy with basic auth.

## Why is this useful?

I'm developing on a remote machine all the time, but I want to protect some

of the publicly accesible things and remain safe by locking it down as much

as possible.

## Dependencies

- Ruby

- nginx

- apache2-utils to generate valid htpasswd file

## Setup

1. Generate password file with:

  - `htpasswd -c ./mypass `

2. Create your config file, you can use `proxy.yml.example` as a template

3. Run `./gen proxy.yml.example` - it will generate `proxy.conf`

4. Copy `proxy.conf` to `/etc/nginx/sites-available` and symlink it to `/etc/ngxin/sites-enables`

5. Open any ports listed in `gen`'s output using `iptables` of `ufw`

6. Reload `nginx`

7. Done!

## Problems?

Check nginx error log
