				|  |  | -## Project Goal
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -I created this project to fill a personal need to provide users with a easy way to accomplish reverse
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -proxying hosts with SSL termination and it had to be so easy that a monkey could do it. This goal hasn't changed.
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -While there might be advanced options they are optional and the project should be as simple as possible
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -so that the barrier for entry here is low.

				|  |  | -## Hosting your home network
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -I won't go in to too much detail here but here are the basics for someone new to this self-hosted world.
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -1. Your home router will have a Port Forwarding section somewhere. Log in and find it
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -2. Add port forwarding for port 80 and 443 to the server hosting this project
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -3. Configure your domain name details to point to your home, either with a static ip or a service like DuckDNS or [Amazon Route53](https://github.com/jc21/route53-ddns)
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -4. Use the Nginx Proxy Manager as your gateway to forward to your other web based services
 |

				|  |  | -## Quick Setup
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -1. Install Docker and Docker-Compose
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -- [Docker Install documentation](https://docs.docker.com/install/)
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -- [Docker-Compose Install documentation](https://docs.docker.com/compose/install/)
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -2. Create a docker-compose.yml file similar to this:
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -```yml
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -version: '3.8'
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -services:
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -  app:
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -    image: 'jc21/nginx-proxy-manager:latest'
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -    restart: unless-stopped
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -    ports:
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -      - '80:80'
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -      - '81:81'
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -      - '443:443'
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -    volumes:
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -      - ./data:/data
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -      - ./letsencrypt:/etc/letsencrypt
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -```
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -This is the bare minimum configuration required. See the [documentation](https://nginxproxymanager.com/setup/) for more.
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -3. Bring up your stack by running
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -```bash
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -docker-compose up -d
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -# If using docker-compose-plugin
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -docker compose up -d
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -```
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -4. Log in to the Admin UI
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -When your docker container is running, connect to it on port `81` for the admin interface.
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -Sometimes this can take a little bit because of the entropy of keys.
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -[http://127.0.0.1:81](http://127.0.0.1:81)
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -Default Admin User:
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -```
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -Email:    [email protected]
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -Password: changeme
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -```
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -
 | 
	
		
			
				|  |  | -Immediately after logging in with this default user you will be asked to modify your details and change your password.
