Boilerplate for nginx with Let’s Encrypt on docker-compose

This repository is accompanied by a step-by-step guide on how to set up nginx and Let’s Encrypt with Docker.

init-letsencrypt.sh fetches and ensures the renewal of a Let’s Encrypt certificate for one or multiple domains in a docker-compose setup with nginx. This is useful when you need to set up nginx as a reverse proxy for an application.

Installation

1. Install docker-compose.

2. Clone this repository: git clone https://github.com/iZemil/ssl.git .

• Or add as a submodule: git submodule add git@github.com:iZemil/ssl.git (git submodule update --init --recursive)

3. Modify configuration:

• Add domains and email addresses to init-letsencrypt.sh
• Replace all occurrences of bllng.com with primary domain (the first one you added to init-letsencrypt.sh) in data/nginx/app.conf

4. Run the init script:

./init-letsencrypt.sh

5. Run the server:

docker compose up
