Nginx Proxy Manager

First-install notes

• Expose a host port to port 80 Add a port mapping like -p 8080:80, which makes a port on your machine (8080) forward to port 80 inside the container; without it, a browser on your machine cannot reach the web page. source
• Put template files in the mounted folder If you use template files, mount a local folder to /etc/nginx/templates and set environment variables (name=value settings passed to the container) for placeholders like ${MY_DOMAIN}; otherwise the rendered config may keep placeholders and stop working. source
• Let Nginx autotune worker count Set NGINX_ENTRYPOINT_WORKER_PROCESSES_AUTOTUNE=true if you want Nginx to calculate worker processes, the helper workers that handle requests, from the CPUs your container can use; without it, the default worker setting remains and may be too low or too high. source
• Port mapping for internet exposure Nginx Proxy Manager expects port 40080 for HTTP (unsecured) traffic and port 40443 for HTTPS (secured) traffic. To expose the proxy to the public internet, forward external port 80 to internal port 40080 and external port 443 to internal port 40443 on your router. source
