# Nginx

[Nginx](https://nginx.org) can be used as a Reverse Proxy in front of Speedtest Tracker to expose the Dashboard publicly with a trusted certificate.

First, you will need to add the `APP_URL` and `ASSET_URL` environment variables to your `docker-compose.yml`.

```yaml
services:
    speedtest-tracker:
        container_name: speedtest-tracker
        environment:
            - PUID=1000
            - PGID=1000
            - APP_KEY=
            - DB_CONNECTION=sqlite
            - SPEEDTEST_SCHEDULE=
            - SPEEDTEST_SERVERS=
            - PRUNE_RESULTS_OLDER_THAN=
            - CHART_DATETIME_FORMAT= 
            - DATETIME_FORMAT=
            - APP_TIMEZONE=
            # Change both below to the desired domain
            - APP_URL=https://speedtest.yourdomain.com
            - ASSET_URL=https://speedtest.yourdomain.com
        volumes:
            - /path/to/data:/config
            - /path/to-custom-ssl-keys:/config/keys
        image: lscr.io/linuxserver/speedtest-tracker:latest
        restart: unless-stopped
```

Next, you will need to configure nginx to proxy to the Speedtest Tracker app.

{% hint style="info" %}
Depending on how you generate your SSL certificates and how you configure your Docker network, you may need to adjust the `ssl_` and `proxy_pass` values.
{% endhint %}

```nginx
server {
        listen 80;
        server_name speedtest.yourdomain.com;
        return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}

server {
        listen 443 ssl;
        server_name speedtest.yourdomain.com;

        ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/speedtest.yourdomain.com/fullchain.pem;
        ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/speedtest.yourdomain.com/privkey.pem;

        ssl_protocols TLSv1.2;
        ssl_ciphers

        ssl_prefer_server_ciphers on;
        ssl_session_cache shared:SSL:10m;
        ssl_session_timeout 10m;
        ssl_dhparam /etc/ssl/certs/dhparam.pem;

        add_header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=31536000;includeSubdomains";

        location / {
                proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $host;
                proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Server $host;
                proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
                proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;

                proxy_pass http://speedtest-container-host:80;
        }
}
```

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.speedtest-tracker.dev/other/proxies/nginx.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
