[How-To] Use Uptime Kuma Behind Reverse Proxy

Purpose

This document aims to show how to configure your reverse proxy configuration for Uptime Kuma as it is a web socket app.

Prerequisites

List of prerequisites:

Reverse Proxy Configuration

Nginx Reverse Proxy:

For Nginx with SSL:

server {
  listen 443 ssl http2;
  # Remove '#' in the next line to enable IPv6
  # listen [::]:443 ssl http2;
  server_name sub.domain.com;
  ssl_certificate     /path/to/ssl/cert/crt;
  ssl_certificate_key /path/to/ssl/key/key;
  # *See "With SSL (Certbot)" below for details on automating ssl certificates

  location / {
    proxy_set_header   X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header   X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header   Host $host;
    proxy_pass         http://localhost:3001/;
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header   Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header   Connection "upgrade";
  }
}

For Nginx with SSL (Certbot):

server {
  # If you don't have one yet, you can set up a subdomain with your domain registrar (e.g. Namecheap)
  # Just create a new host record with type='A Record', host='<subdomain>', value='<ip_address>'.
  
  server_name your_subdomain.your_domain.your_tld;

  location / {
    proxy_set_header   X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header   X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    proxy_set_header   Host $host;
    proxy_pass         http://localhost:3001/;
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header   Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header   Connection "upgrade";
  }
}

# Once that's completed, you can run
# sudo apt install python3-certbot-nginx
# sudo certbot --nginx -d your_domain -d your_subdomain.your_domain -d www.your_domain
# And Certbot will auto-populate this nginx .conf file for you, while also renewing your certificates automatically in the future.

For Nginx without SSL:

server  {
    listen 80;
    # Remove '#' in the next line to enable IPv6
    # listen [::]:80;
    server_name    sub.domain.com;
    location / {
        proxy_pass         http://localhost:3001;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header   Upgrade $http_upgrade;
        proxy_set_header   Connection "upgrade";
        proxy_set_header   Host $host;
    }
}

Apache Reverse Proxy:

For Apache With SSL:

<VirtualHost *:443>
  ServerName sub.domain.com
  SSLEngine On
  SSLCertificateFile /path/to/ssl/cert/crt
  SSLCertificateKeyFile /path/to/ssl/key/key
  # Protocol 'h2' is only supported on Apache 2.4.17 or newer.
  Protocols h2 http/1.1
  ProxyPreserveHost on
  ProxyPass / http://localhost:3001/
  RewriteEngine on
  RewriteCond %{HTTP:Upgrade} =websocket
  RewriteRule /(.*) ws://localhost:3001/$1 [P,L]
  RewriteCond %{HTTP:Upgrade} !=websocket
  RewriteRule /(.*) http://localhost:3001/$1 [P,L]
</VirtualHost>

For Apache Without SSL:

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName sub.domain.com
  ProxyPreserveHost on
  ProxyPass / http://localhost:3001/
  RewriteEngine on
  RewriteCond %{HTTP:Upgrade} websocket [NC]
  RewriteCond %{HTTP:Connection} upgrade [NC]
  RewriteRule ^/?(.*) "ws://localhost:3001/$1" [P,L]
</VirtualHost>

volumes:
  https-portal-data:

HAProxy:

No special configuration is required when using HAProxy as a reverse proxy although you may wish to add the timeout tunnel option to either the defaultslisten, or backend sections. If using the timeout tunnel option, it is also recommended to set timeout client-fin to handle instances where the client stops responding.
