# Install NginX Proxy Manager on Raspberry Pi

Once connected we need to create a folder so type the following and press enter:

mkdir nginx

Now we need to move into that directory using the following and press enter:

cd nginx

We now need to create the file config.json use the following to open the nano editor so we can input some data then press enter.

nano config.json

Now we have a file to write to copy and paste the following into the file.

Note: Replace all changeme values with something unique and secure.

Note: The below details have been updated and are confirmed working as of 24th October 2021.

{
  "database": {
    "engine": "mysql",
    "host": "db",
    "name": "npm",
    "user": "changeme",
    "password": "changeme",
    "port": 3306
  }
}

Once you have done that press Ctrl + X then Y to save and Enter to exit the nano editor.

We now have to create one more file this one is a docker-compose.yml file.

Type the following to create the file in the nano editor:

nano docker-compose.yml Like before change all changeme values to match the same as set in the config.json file.

Note: Create a new password for MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD.

If you are using an external drive to store your container data, change the folder location under volumes: before the colon : to your desired location. Leave all ports values the same.

version: '3'
services:
  app:
    image: 'jc21/nginx-proxy-manager:latest'
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - '80:80'
      - '81:81'
      - '443:443'
    environment:
      DB_MYSQL_HOST: "db"
      DB_MYSQL_PORT: 3306
      DB_MYSQL_USER: "changeme"
      DB_MYSQL_PASSWORD: "changeme"
      DB_MYSQL_NAME: "npm"
    volumes:
      - ./data:/data
      - ./letsencrypt:/etc/letsencrypt
  db:
    image: 'jc21/mariadb-aria:latest'
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: 'changeme'
      MYSQL_DATABASE: 'npm'
      MYSQL_USER: 'changeme'
      MYSQL_PASSWORD: 'changeme'
    volumes:
      - ./data/mysql:/var/lib/mysql

Once you have done that press Ctrl + X then Y to save and Enter to exit the nano editor.

To deploy the dockers run the following command:

sudo docker-compose up -d

This will take some time to finish.

Once complete you can check that the docker containers exist by typing the following:

sudo docker ps

Or you can check in Portainer by logging in via your browser and navigating to Containers.

Note: Replace RASPBERRYPIIP with your raspberry pi IP address followed by port 9000. Example http:192.168.2.5:9000
