I would like to introduce a reverse proxy which I really like to use and maybe you will like it too 😊

I tried a few reverse proxies, but in the end nothing met my needs. A simple reverse proxy with webinterface, easy to setup, but powerful…

I was impressed from the start with Zoraxy. A good alternative to Nginx Proxy Manager and Cosmos. Zoraxy can be run in docker, but it is possible to install it directly on the host. This is the first reverse proxy I saw, where docker is not an obligation (except apache and nginx itself :) )

Zoraxy makes it easy to setup subdomain proxies oder virtual directory records. An uptime Monitor is included too and a few network tools like ping, whois, mDNS scanner, IP-scanner or a ssh client.

Let´s Encrypt is supported and custom certificates. Blacklist / Whitelist access control and a lot of stats (like goaccess but with better diagrams)

You can import and export all settings to zip file including all subdomain proxies etc…

Read more and try out on GitHub

I am not the developer but I really like this project!

    Thanks for posting this. It’s nice that people are working on more accessible ways to do this, every way I’ve done it so far has been pure command line. And while that’s fine, it takes longer to understand and set up for simple installs.

      And while that’s fine, it takes longer to understand and set up for simple installs.

      It also allows for easier scripting, which makes things more reproducible.

      Even for simple things I’m nowadays going through Ansible - because I know I’ll have forgotten what exactly I did in a year, and that way I can just look at the Ansible files in git to remember.
