Set up a reverse proxy

This page describes StackState version 4.3.
The StackState 4.3 version range is End of Life (EOL) and no longer supported. We encourage customers still running the 4.3 version range to upgrade to a more recent release.
StackState prefers Kubernetes! In the future we will move away from Linux support. Read how to migrate from the Linux install of StackState to the Kubernetes install.
StackState makes heavy use of Websockets, so when setting up a reverse proxy to make StackState available on, for example, port 80 or 443 (with TLS) you will also need to proxy Websocket requests. An example setup for Nginx for this looks like this (proxying port 80 to StackState running on localhost port 7070):
http {
server {
listen 80;
server_name _;
server_tokens off;
location /health {
return 200;
}
if ($http_x_forwarded_proto != "https") {
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:7070;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Scheme $scheme;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https;
proxy_set_header X-Content-Type-Options nosniff;
proxy_set_header X-Frame-Options SAMEORIGIN;
proxy_set_header X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block";
}
location /api/stream {
proxy_pass http://localhost:7070/api/stream;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Scheme $scheme;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https;
proxy_http_version 1.1;
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "Upgrade";
proxy_set_header X-Content-Type-Options nosniff;
proxy_set_header X-Frame-Options SAMEORIGIN;
proxy_set_header X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block";
}
location /api/telemetry {
proxy_pass http://localhost:7070/api/telemetry;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Scheme $scheme;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto https;
