This commit introduces a unified mechanism to configure client_max_body_size for both HTML and upload locations in the sys-svc-proxy role. The directive is now injected early in html.conf.j2 and moved to a dedicated block in upload.conf.j2 to ensure consistent behavior for large file uploads such as OpenProject attachments. Additionally: - Added client_max_body_size variable override from web-app-openproject (set to 30m). - Reordered header includes to avoid duplicate injection. - Improved comments and structure for better clarity.

Nginx Docker Reverse Proxy 🚀
Description
This Ansible role deploys Nginx as a high-performance reverse proxy in front of Docker-hosted services.
It provides automatic TLS integration, WebSocket support, and a flexible templating system for per-application configuration.
Overview
Optimised for Arch Linux, the role installs Nginx, prepares opinionated configuration snippets and exposes a simple interface for other roles to drop in new virtual-hosts.
It plays well with Let’s Encrypt, OAuth2 Proxy, and your existing Docker stack.
Purpose
The goal of this role is to deliver a hassle-free, production-ready reverse proxy for self-hosted containers, suitable for homelabs and small-scale production workloads.
Features
- Automatic TLS & HSTS — integrates with the sys-svc-webserver-https role for certificate management.
- Flexible vHost templates — basic and ws_generic flavours cover standard HTTP and WebSocket applications.
- Security headers — sensible defaults plus optional X-Frame-Options / CSP based on application settings.
- WebSocket & HTTP/2 aware — upgrades, keep-alive tuning, and gzip already configured.
- OAuth2 gating — drop-in support when web-app-oauth2-proxy is present.
- Modular includes — headers, locations, and global snippets are factored for easy extension.
