I have a Shiny app hosted in Digitalocean with Web-server as Nginx . The Web-address looks like
http://www.exacmple.com/ShinyApp
However I wish if I could change the http to https. ie all request to this App would be routed to https:/ /www.exacmple.com/ShinyApp
I already have SSL certificate installed from letsencrypt
, and certificate file is placed at below addresses:
/etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem;
/etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/privkey.pem;
Currently, my Nginx Proxy file is set like below:
##
# You should look at the following URL's in order to grasp a solid understanding
# of Nginx configuration files in order to fully unleash the power of Nginx.
# http://wiki.nginx.org/Pitfalls
# http://wiki.nginx.org/QuickStart
# http://wiki.nginx.org/Configuration
#
# Generally, you will want to move this file somewhere, and start with a clean
# file but keep this around for reference. Or just disable in sites-enabled.
#
# Please see /usr/share/doc/nginx-doc/examples/ for more detailed examples.
##
# Default server configuration
#
map $http_upgrade $connection_upgrade {
default upgrade;
'' close;
}
server {
listen 80 default_server;
listen [::]:80 default_server;
server_name example.com www.example.com;
if ($http_host = example.com) {
rewrite (.*) https://www.example.com$1;
}
root /var/www/html;
# Add index.php to the list if you are using PHP
index index.html index.htm index.nginx-debian.html;
location / {
# First attempt to serve request as file, then
# as directory, then fall back to displaying a 404.
try_files $uri $uri/ =404;
}
location /ShinyApp/ {
rewrite ^/ShinyApp/(.*)$ /$1 break;
proxy_pass http://localhost:4242;
proxy_redirect http://localhost:4242/ $scheme://$host/ShinyApp/;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade;
proxy_read_timeout 20d;
proxy_buffering off;
}
}
To implement for https , I have appended this file as below (the location section )
location /ShinyApp/ {
rewrite ^/ShinyApp/(.*)$ /$1 break;
SSLEngine on
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/privkey.pem;
ProxyPreserveHost On
proxy_pass http://localhost:4242;
roxyPassReverse http://localhost:4242;
proxy_redirect http://localhost:4242/ $scheme://$host/ShinyApp/;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection $connection_upgrade;
proxy_read_timeout 20d;
proxy_buffering off;
}
However above change fails to implement https request.
I have gone through various suggestions available over Web (eg HTTPS for Shiny apps? ) however failed to find any workable solution.
Any pointer towards the right direction would be very helpful.
Thanks,
Common practice for this is to use two server blocks:
server {
listen 80 default_server;
listen [::]:80 default_server;
server_name example.com www.example.com;
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}
server {
listen 443 ssl default_server;
listen [::]:443 ssl default_server;
server_name example.com www.example.com;
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/example.com/privkey.pem;
... # root, index and other top-level directives here
location /ShinyApp/ {
# your backend configuration here
}
}
Don't use ssl_certificate
and ssl_certificate_key
directives inside a location
blocks, pay attention on a context in which nginx directives may or may not be used. SSLEngine
, ProxyPreserveHost
and ProxyPassReverse
are apache directives, remove them! Test your configuration with nginx -t
before reloading nginx with a new configuration.
