I’ve got a mini pc which is running always and another one which consumes a lot more power for e.g. jellyfin.
Can I configure it such that the jellyfin server only boots if I connect to it? E.g. I try to connect to jellyfin.y.com and then the server boots because the mini pc tries to connect to it.
I already figured out how to let it sleep automatically as soon as nobody is watching.
Edit: can I add the magic package to the reverse proxy?
I mean, use what you want. But caddy is significantly easier to configure. It additionally handles SSL and protects your proxy targets with zero configuration (by default) and supports live configuration reload via the admin interface. It’s tits.
Here’s my config: http://i.xno.dev/u/fc8N0n.png
Caddy is running a wildcard SSL cert, so once I’ve connected my box to cloudflare, I can setup a subdomain by simply adding it to my caddy config. No additional setup is required. It also works directly with docker, so if you install the
lemmy(name of the container) docker container, you can reverse_proxy by simply (assuming they’re on the same docker network):That sounds more or less to be exactly what I’m doing with NPM currently. I don’t see how it’s easier to configure as all I did was fire up the NPM container, log in, and add my host targets.
NPM also handles SSL both standard http verification as well as DNS auth for wildcards.
Caddy can do the same and there is a steep learning curve but I switched about a year ago and only need to touch the config file when I add a host. Can even bring that config to a new server and it will stand up once it starts and picks up the config.
