+# Novicelab Nginx
+Nginx + Certbot + GoAccess
+
+## Logs
+All logs stored in `data/logs` site files
+
+## Site confs
+Located in `data/conf.d`
+
+## Container variables
+Harbor and Opencloud site confs use host IP; they have expansive configs with their own Docker networks. \
+
+All other site confs use a backend variable that points to the contioner as such: 
+```
+server {
+    listen 443 ssl;
+    resolver 127.0.0.11 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 valid=300s;
+    resolver_timeout 5s;
+
+    set $adminer_backend adminer:8080; 
+
+    location / { 
+        ## Advantage: Nginx container start won't be blocked should the 
+        ## below services container be down
+        ## Upstream works just as well
+        proxy_pass http://$adminer_backend;
+        ...
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## Upstream structure
+```
+http {
+    upstream goaccess {
+        server goaccess:7890 weight=1 fail_timeout=30s;
+    }
+    server {
+        listen 443 ssl;
+
+        location /ws {
+            proxy_pass http://goaccess;
+            ...
+        }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+```
+mkdir nginx && cd nginx
+git clone https://gitea.novicelab.io/novicelab.io/nginx.git .
