1. Clone this repository using the option --recurse-submodules ⚠️

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/qressy/nginx-proxy-automation.git proxy 

We use submodule for basescript

2. 🚀 Run the script 'fresh_start.sh' from the ./proxy/bin folder

cd proxy/bin && ./fresh-start.sh --yes -e your_email@domain --skip-docker-image-check

Update the email above with your real e-mail address

2.1 ⭐ Start the nginx-proxy, docker-gen, letsencrypt(optional) docker containers (comment out letsencrypt container if not needed )

cd proxy && docker compose up -d

• This is a fork specific change ☝️

3. 🧪 Test the proxy

docker run -dit -e VIRTUAL_HOST=your.domain.com --network=proxy --name test-web httpd:alpine

or simply run:

./test.sh your.domain.com

Use your own domain name when testing this proxy and make sure your DNS is correctly configured.

• while running docker compose up ( for proxy container )
