How to add ssl ?

[maciejsk]

Hi
Is there any FAQ how to add SSL to geoserver on docker?

Is there any environment parameter in docker-compose?

How to add this to geoserver? I need to add domain ssl ex: https://wms.mygeoserver.com:8600/geoserver/web/

I can add no ssl version and it work ok.

There is no out-of-the-box solution for SSL/HTTPS in this docker image. It could be solved on the tomcat level, but usually you want to make use of a lightweight http proxy server component (like nginx). For example, you could create a docker-compose setup with an nginx and a geoserver service. nginx would be exposed to the "outer world" and provide the SSL security, but GeoServer would only live inside the docker container. Then you have to configure your nginx to act as a proxy for the geoserver to forward requests accordingly.

Googe something like "docker compose nginx ssl" and you should find a lot of information for that.
