NGINX Domain Setup

Description

This role bootstraps per-domain NGINX configuration: it requests TLS certificates, applies global modifiers, deploys a ready-made vHost file, and can optionally lock down access via OAuth2.

Overview

A higher-level orchestration wrapper, sys-stk-front-proxy ties together several lower-level roles:

  1. sys-front-inj-all – applies global tweaks and includes.
  2. sys-svc-certs – obtains Let’s Encrypt certificates.
  3. Domain template deployment – copies a Jinja2 vHost from sys-svc-proxy.
  4. web-app-keycloak's SSO-proxy sidecar (optional) – protects the site with OAuth2.

The result is a complete, reproducible domain rollout in a single playbook task.

Purpose

Provide one-stop, idempotent domain provisioning for NGINX-based homelabs or small production environments.

Features

  • End-to-end TLS: certificate retrieval and secure headers included.
  • Template-driven vHosts: choose basic or ws_generic flavours (or your own).
  • Conditional OAuth2: easily toggle authentication per application.
  • Handler-safe: automatically triggers an NGINX reload when templates change.
  • Composable: designed to be called repeatedly for many domains.
