# Nginx + Certbot + ACME‑DNS Proxy Stack
|
||||
|
||||
> **A batteries‑included reverse‑proxy scaffold that Just Works™ on a single node or a Docker Swarm.**
|
||||
>
|
||||
> *Old‑school Unix philosophy under the hood, modern container workflow on top.*
|
||||
*[Full documentation → docs site](https://youruser.github.io/proxy-stack/)*
|
||||
|
||||
Simple reverse‑proxy setup packaged in a single Docker image. Nginx handles HTTP/S and TCP/UDP streams; Certbot issues and renews Let’s Encrypt certificates via ACME‑DNS (DNS‑01). packaged in a single Docker image. Nginx handles HTTP/S and TCP/UDP streams; Certbot issues and renews Let’s Encrypt certificates via ACME‑DNS (DNS‑01).

## ✨ What you get
|
||||
## What’s in this repo
|
||||
|
||||
| Component | Job |
|
||||
| ---------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| **Nginx** | Serves HTTP/S, terminates TLS, proxies upstreams, handles TCP/UDP streams |
|
||||
| **Certbot** | Automates Let’s Encrypt certificate issuance / renewal |
|
||||
| **acme‑dns‑auth.py** | ACME‑DNS helper for DNS‑01 challenges (wildcards, no public port 80 needed) |
|
||||
| **Docker (image & compose)** | Reproducible environment; optional Swarm placement rules |
|
||||
| Path / file | Purpose |
|
||||
| ------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| `dockerfile.debian` | Builds the image (Debian slim + Nginx + Certbot) |
|
||||
| `compose.yml` | One‑service Docker Compose file |
|
||||
| `acme-dns-auth.py` | Helper script called by Certbot for DNS‑01 |
|
||||
| `certbot-runner` | Convenience wrapper to open a shell in the image |
|
||||
| `conf.d/` | **Not tracked** – drop HTTP/S vhost configs here |
|
||||
| `stream.d/` | **Not tracked** – drop stream (TCP/UDP) configs here |
|
||||
| `letsencrypt/` | Empty volume for keys/certs (git‑ignored) |
|
||||
| `work/` | Certbot cache (git‑ignored) |

|
||||
## 🚀 Quick start
|
||||
|
||||
> **Prerequisites**: Docker (24 +) & Docker Compose v2, or Docker Swarm if you want clustering.
|
||||
## Quick start (single node)
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# 1. Clone
|
||||
# clone
|
||||
$ git clone https://github.com/youruser/proxy-stack.git
|
||||
$ cd proxy-stack
|
||||
|
||||
# 2. Create empty state dirs so the volume binds succeed
|
||||
$ mkdir -p letsencrypt work lib/backups
|
||||
$ touch letsencrypt/.gitkeep work/.gitkeep lib/backups/.gitkeep
|
||||
# create runtime dirs so volume binds don’t fail
|
||||
$ mkdir -p letsencrypt work
|
||||
|
||||
# 3. (Optional) Build your own image
|
||||
$ docker build -t my-proxy:latest -f dockerfile.debian .
|
||||
# build the image (or pull one you published)
|
||||
$ docker build -t proxy:latest -f dockerfile.debian .
|
||||
|
||||
# 4. Launch the stack (Compose)
|
||||
$ IMAGE_NAME=my-proxy:latest docker compose up -d
|
||||
# start Nginx + Certbot
|
||||
$ IMAGE_NAME=proxy:latest docker compose up -d
|
||||
|
||||
# 5. Obtain the first certificate (DNS‑01)
|
||||
$ DOMAIN=my.example.com ./new-domain-runner
|
||||
# Follow the prompts → add the TXT record → hit <Enter>
|
||||
# obtain an initial certificate (DNS‑01)
|
||||
$ DOMAIN=example.com ./certbot-runner
|
||||
# follow the prompts → add the TXT/CNAME → press <enter>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Swarm mode
|
||||
When certificates renew, Certbot reloads Nginx automatically.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Certificates (DNS‑01 quick guide)
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Initialize swarm once per host (if not already a manager)
|
||||
$ docker swarm init
|
||||
# Run inside the container (root)
|
||||
certbot certonly \
|
||||
--manual \
|
||||
--manual-auth-hook /etc/letsencrypt/acme-dns-auth.py \
|
||||
--preferred-challenges dns \
|
||||
--debug-challenges \
|
||||
-d '*.your-domain' -d your-domain
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
# Deploy with placement label (edit compose.yml if needed)
|
||||
$ docker stack deploy -c compose.yml proxy
|
||||
1. The hook registers (or re‑uses) an **acme‑dns** account and prints a CNAME like:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
_acme-challenge.your-domain. CNAME 8a1b12c3-...acme-dns.io.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. Create that CNAME in *your* authoritative DNS zone (or update if it exists).
|
||||
3. Press **<Enter>** – Certbot validates, stores the certs under
|
||||
`/etc/letsencrypt/live/your-domain/`, and reloads Nginx.
|
||||
|
||||
That’s it – future renewals happen automatically (`certbot renew`).
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Directory rules
|
||||
|
||||
Everything that contains private keys or runtime state is ignored by Git:
|
||||
|
||||
```text
|
||||
letsencrypt/ # keys, certs, renewal configs
|
||||
work/ # Certbot cache
|
||||
conf.d/ # your real vhosts – ignored
|
||||
stream.d/ # your real stream configs – ignored
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Provide examples by naming them `*.example.conf`; those are the only files tracked inside `conf.d/` and `stream.d/`.
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## Updating
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# Rebuild image when Nginx or Certbot update
|
||||
$ docker build -t proxy:latest . && docker compose up -d
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
## 🔐 TLS & certificates
|
||||
## License
|
||||
|
||||
* **Automatic renewals** – A cron inside the container runs `certbot renew` and hot‑reloads Nginx.
|
||||
* **No secrets in Git** – `letsencrypt/` is `gitignored`; keys stay on disk only.
|
||||
* **acme‑dns** – Ideal when ports 80/443 are busy or you need wildcard certs. Change `ACMEDNS_URL` via env var if you self‑host acme‑dns.

## ⚙️ Configuration knobs
|
||||
|
||||
| Variable | Default | Purpose |
|
||||
| --------------- | ------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| `IMAGE_NAME` | `ghcr.io/youruser/proxy:latest` | Override in scripts / compose to point at your own build |
|
||||
| `ACMEDNS_URL` | `https://auth.acme-dns.io` | Where `acme-dns-auth.py` registers & updates records |
|
||||
| `CERTBOT_EMAIL` | – | Address Certbot uses for expiry mails |
|
||||
| Swarm label | `node.labels.server_id==lnd1` | Example placement constraint – comment or change |
|
||||
|
||||
Edit `conf.d/*.conf` and `stream.d/*.conf` to define your virtual hosts and upstreams.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## 🛠️ Maintenance
|
||||
|
||||
| Task | Old‑school command | Modern alternative |
|
||||
| ---------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| Rebuild image after Nginx or OpenSSL CVE | `docker build -t my-proxy .` | GitHub Actions → `docker buildx build --push` |
|
||||
| List certs expiring in ≤30 days | `docker exec proxy certbot certificates` | Prometheus + exporter |
|
||||
| Tail logs | `docker compose logs -f proxy` | Grafana Loki |
