I want my self hosted things to use https.
For example, I have Jellyfin installed via docker, and I want it to use https instead of http.
I don’t care about necessarily doing this the “right” way, as I won’t be making Jellyfin or any other service public, and will only be using it on my local network.
What is the easiest way to do this? Assume everything I host is in docker.
Also a link to a tutorial would be great.
With caddy you can easily set up a local issued certificate for https. It would shine a nice warming on your browser unless you install the CA certificate on the computer you use to visit the site though.
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !selfhosted@lemmy.world

This is the easiest way I know how to do it. Caddy takes almost no configuration to get working.
Or use caddy with a dns challenge. No need to open any ports and just use it completely locally without any annoying warning.
