Comment on Bitwarden and Nginx proxy manager
CumBroth@discuss.tchncs.de 1 year ago
SWAG is great for overwhelmed Nginx beginners. It comes preconfigured with reasonable defaults and also provides configs for a bunch of popular services: github.com/linuxserver/reverse-proxy-confs. Both Bitwarden and Vaultwarden are on there. Note that this setup assumes that you will run your service (Bitwarden/Vaultwarden) in a Docker container. You can make SWAG work with something that’s running directly on the host, but I’d recommend not starting with that until you’ve fooled around with this container setup a bit and gained a better understanding of how Nginx and reverse proxies work.

SWAG works perfectly, so much easier. It also handles the Let’s Encrypt certificates automatically - no more having expired domains.
If a service config isn’t available, you can confidently copy another and make a few modifications and have it up and running in no time

Nginx Proxy Manager does also manage certificates, it makes it even easier to create separate certificates for different subdomains, which is nice for my sanity.
I don’t like that anybody checking out one certificate of any service and get all the subdomains I’m running too. Wildcard certificates are bad practice.
