Quick start

Configure Wildcard DNS Record(s) to point to machine running GoDoxy , e.g.

• A Record: *.domain.com -> 10.0.10.1

• AAAA Record (if you use IPv6): *.domain.com -> ::ffff:a00:a01

Note GoDoxy is designed to be running in host network mode, do not change it.

To change listening ports, modify .env .

- Prepare a new directory for Docker Compose and config files.

- Run setup script inside the directory, or set up manually

/bin/sh -c " $( curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yusing/godoxy/main/scripts/setup.sh ) "

- Start the docker compose service from generated compose.yml :

docker compose up -d

- You may now do some extra configuration on WebUI https://godoxy.yourdomain.com

Key features

• Simple setup

• Configure routes with Docker labels or route files

• Manage routes, config, containers, logs, metrics, and uptime from the WebUI

• Use multi-node Docker setups

• Automatic routing

• Discover Docker and Podman containers

• Hot-reload config and container state changes

• Manage Let's Encrypt certificates with DNS-01 providers

• Traffic management

• HTTP reverse proxy

• TCP/UDP port forwarding

• OpenID Connect SSO

• ForwardAuth integration, e.g. TinyAuth

• HTTP middlewares

• Custom error pages

• Access control

• IP/CIDR rules

• Country and timezone rules with a MaxMind account

• Access logging

• Periodic access summaries

• Idle sleep

• Stop and wake Docker containers based on traffic

• Stop and wake Proxmox LXC containers based on traffic

• Proxmox integration

• Bind routes automatically to nodes or LXC containers

• Start, stop, and restart LXC containers from the WebUI

• Stream node and LXC logs through WebSocket

• Platform support

• Linux amd64

• Linux arm64

How GoDoxy works

• List all the containers

• Read container name, labels, and port configurations for each of them

• Create a route if applicable (a route is like a "Virtual Host" in NPM)

• Watch for container / config changes and update automatically

Note GoDoxy uses the label proxy.aliases as the subdomain(s), if unset it defaults to the container_name field in docker compose.

For example, with the label proxy.aliases: qbt you can access your app via qbt.domain.com .

Proxmox Integration

GoDoxy can automatically discover and manage Proxmox nodes and LXC containers through configured providers.

Automatic Route Binding

Routes are automatically linked to Proxmox resources through reverse lookup:

• Node-level routes (VMID = 0): When hostname, IP, or alias matches a Proxmox node name or IP

• Container-level routes (VMID > 0): When hostname, IP, or alias matches an LXC container

This enables seamless proxy configuration without manual binding:

routes : pve-node-01 : host : pve-node-01.internal port : 8006

Automatically links to Proxmox node pve-node-01

WebUI Management

From the WebUI, you can:

• LXC Lifecycle Control : Start, stop, restart containers

• Node Logs : Stream real-time journalctl or log files output from nodes

• LXC Logs : Stream real-time journalctl or log files output from containers

Update / uninstall system agent

Installer supports both systemd and Alpine/OpenRC ( rc-service ) hosts.

Update:

sh -c " $( curl -fsSL https://github.com/yusing/godoxy/raw/refs/heads/main/scripts/install-agent.sh ) " -- update

Uninstall:

sh -c " $( curl -fsSL https://github.com/yusing/godoxy/raw/refs/heads/main/scripts/install-agent.sh ) " -- uninstall

Manual Setup

-

Make config directory then grab config.example.yml into config/config.yml

mkdir -p config && wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yusing/godoxy/main/config.example.yml -O config/config.yml

- Grab .env.example into .env

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yusing/godoxy/main/.env.example -O .env

- Grab compose.example.yml into compose.yml

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yusing/godoxy/main/compose.example.yml -O compose.yml
