This guide provides a basic overview for installing Drone server behind the nginx webserver. For more advanced configuration options please consult the official nginx documentation.

Example configuration:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name drone.example.com;

    location / {
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
        proxy_set_header Host $http_host;

        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000;
        proxy_redirect off;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_buffering off;

        chunked_transfer_encoding off;
    }
}

You must configure the proxy to set X-Forwarded proxy headers:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name drone.example.com;

    location / {
+       proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
+       proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;

        proxy_pass http://127.0.0.1:8000;
        proxy_redirect off;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_buffering off;

        chunked_transfer_encoding off;
    }
}
