# Reverse Proxy Set Up
#### Important! Audiobookshelf requires a websocket connection.
#### Note: Subfolder paths (e.g. /audiobooks) are not supported yet. See [issue](https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf/issues/385)
### NGINX Proxy Manager
Toggle websockets support.
<img alt="NGINX Web socket" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/67830747/153679106-b2a7f5b9-0702-48c6-9740-b26b401986e9.png" />
### NGINX Reverse Proxy
Add this to the site config file on your nginx server after you have changed the relevant parts in the <> brackets, and inserted your certificate paths.
```bash
server
{
listen 443 ssl;
server_name <sub>.<domain>.<tld>;
access_log /var/log/nginx/audiobookshelf.access.log;
error_log /var/log/nginx/audiobookshelf.error.log;
ssl_certificate /path/to/certificate;
ssl_certificate_key /path/to/key;
location / {
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_pass http://<URL_to_forward_to>;
proxy_redirect http:// https://;
}
}
```
### Apache Reverse Proxy
Add this to the site config file on your Apache server after you have changed the relevant parts in the <> brackets, and inserted your certificate paths.
For this to work you must enable at least the following mods using `a2enmod`:
- `ssl`
- `proxy`
- `proxy_http`
- `proxy_balancer`
- `proxy_wstunnel`
- `rewrite`
```bash
<IfModule mod_ssl.c>
<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName <sub>.<domain>.<tld>
ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass / http://localhost:<audiobookshelf_port>/
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Upgrade} websocket [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Connection} upgrade [NC]
RewriteRule ^/?(.*) "ws://localhost:<audiobookshelf_port>/$1" [P,L]
# unless you're doing something special this should be generated by a
# tool like certbot by let's encrypt
SSLCertificateFile /path/to/cert/file
SSLCertificateKeyFile /path/to/key/file
</VirtualHost>
</IfModule>
```
Some SSL certificates like those signed by Let's Encrypt require ACME validation. To allow Let's Encrypt to write and confirm
the ACME challenge, edit your VirtualHost definition to prevent proxying traffic that queries `/.well-known` and instead
serve that directly:
```bash
<VirtualHost *:443>
# ...
# create the directory structure /.well-known/acme-challenges
# within DocumentRoot and give the HTTP user recursive write
# access to it.
DocumentRoot /path/to/local/directory
ProxyPreserveHost On
ProxyPass /.well-known !
ProxyPass / http://localhost:<audiobookshelf_port>/
# ...
</VirtualHost>
```

### [Traefik Reverse Proxy](https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/)
Middleware relating to CORS will cause the app to report Unknown Error when logging in. To prevent this don't apply any of the following headers to the router for this site:
<ul>
<li>accessControlAllowMethods</li>
<li>accessControlAllowOriginList</li>
<li>accessControlMaxAge</li>
</ul>

### HAProxy
Below is a generic HAProxy config, using `audiobookshelf.YOUR_DOMAIN.COM`.
To use `http2`, `ssl` is needed.
````make
global
# ... (your global settings go here)
defaults
mode http
# ... (your default settings go here)
frontend my_frontend
# Bind to port 443, enable SSL, and specify the certificate list file
bind :443 name :443 ssl crt-list /path/to/cert.crt_list alpn h2,http/1.1
mode http
# Define an ACL for subdomains starting with "audiobookshelf"
acl is_audiobookshelf hdr_beg(host) -i audiobookshelf
# Use the ACL to route traffic to audiobookshelf_backend if the condition is met,
# otherwise, use the default_backend
use_backend audiobookshelf_backend if is_audiobookshelf
default_backend default_backend
backend audiobookshelf_backend
mode http
# ... (backend settings for audiobookshelf go here)
# Define the server for the audiobookshelf backend
server audiobookshelf_server 127.0.0.99:13378
backend default_backend
mode http
# ... (default backend settings go here)
# Define the server for the default backend
server default_server 127.0.0.123:8081

### Dev Container Setup
The easiest way to begin developing this project is to use a dev container. An introduction to dev containers in VSCode can be found [here](https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/devcontainers/containers).
Required Software:
* [Docker Desktop](https://www.docker.com/products/docker-desktop/)
* [VSCode](https://code.visualstudio.com/download)
*Note, it is possible to use other container software than Docker and IDEs other than VSCode. However, this setup is more complicated and not covered here.*

<p>
Note: This requires a PowerShell prompt with winget installed. You should be able to copy and paste the code block to install. If you use an elevated PowerShell prompt, UAC will not pop up during the installs.
```PowerShell
winget install -e --id Docker.DockerDesktop; `
winget install -e --id Microsoft.VisualStudioCode

After installing these packages, you can now install the [Remote Development](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-vscode-remote.vscode-remote-extensionpack) extension for VSCode. After installing this extension open the command pallet (`ctrl+shift+p` or `cmd+shift+p`) and select the command `>Dev Containers: Rebuild and Reopen in Container`. This will cause the development environment container to be built and launched.
You are now ready to start development!
### Manual Environment Setup
If you don't want to use the dev container, you can still develop this project. First, you will need to install [NodeJs](https://nodejs.org/) (version 20) and [FFmpeg](https://ffmpeg.org/).
Next you will need to create a `dev.js` file in the project's root directory. This contains configuration information and paths unique to your development environment. You can find an example of this file in `.devcontainer/dev.js`.
You are now ready to build the client:
```sh
npm ci
cd client
npm ci
npm run generate
cd ..
```
### Development Commands
After setting up your development environment, either using the dev container or using your own custom environment, the following commands will help you run the server and client.
To run the server, you can use the command `npm run dev`. This will use the client that was built when you ran `npm run generate` in the client directory or when you started the dev container. If you make changes to the server, you will need to restart the server. If you make changes to the client, you will need to run the command `(cd client; npm run generate)` and then restart the server. By default the client runs at `localhost:3333`, though the port can be configured in `dev.js`.
You can also build a version of the client that supports live reloading. To do this, start the server, then run the command `(cd client; npm run dev)`. This will run a separate instance of the client at `localhost:3000` that will be automatically updated as you make changes to the client.
If you are using VSCode, this project includes a couple of pre-defined targets to speed up this process. First, if you build the project (`ctrl+shift+b` or `cmd+shift+b`) it will automatically generate the client. Next, there are debug commands for running the server and client. You can view these targets using the debug panel (bring it up with (`ctrl+shift+d` or `cmd+shift+d`):
* `Debug server`—Run the server.
* `Debug client (nuxt)`—Run the client with live reload.
* `Debug server and client (nuxt)`—Runs both the preceding two debug targets.
