Apache 2

If you want to serve the web interface of the SinusBot encrypted or with the rest of your website, you usually want to setup a reverse proxy. Most of the time, you already have a web server (like apache2 or nginx) in place, which you can use to forward the incoming traffic to the SinusBot.

First you need to add a DNS record (A) which is pointing from your subdomain (e.g. sinusbot.example.com) to the IP of your server. After that, create a file at /etc/apache2/sites-available/sinusbot.conf with the following content.

Adjust the value of the following variables in the configuration examples below:

• YOUR_DOMAIN (domain of your sinusbot)
• ProxyPass and ProxyPassReverse (port of your sinusbot)
• SSLCertificate* (SSL only!)

If you are using no SSL (http):

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName YOUR_DOMAIN

    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

    ProxyPreserveHost On

    ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:8087/
    ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:8087/
</VirtualHost>

If you are using SSL (https) with http->https redirect:

<VirtualHost *:80>
    ServerName YOUR_DOMAIN

    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

    RewriteEngine on
    RewriteCond %{SERVER_NAME}=YOUR_DOMAIN
    RewriteRule ^ https://%{SERVER_NAME}%{REQUEST_URI} [END,NE,R=permanent]
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost *:443>
    ServerName YOUR_DOMAIN

    ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
    CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/access.log combined

    SSLEngine On
    SSLCertificateFile    /etc/letsencrypt/live/YOUR_DOMAIN/cert.pem
    SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/YOUR_DOMAIN/privkey.pem
    SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/your_domain/fullchain.pem

    ProxyPreserveHost On
    ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:8087/
    ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:8087/

    Include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-apache.conf
</VirtualHost>

This example uses Let's Encrypt to generate the SSL certificate. If you are using a different certificate, you need to adjust the SSLCertificate* variables and remove the Include line.

Afterwards you need to enable the configuration file:

a2ensite sinusbot

Enable the proxy-module:

a2enmod proxy

Enable the http-proxy-module:

a2enmod proxy_http

Enable the SSL-module

a2enmod ssl

Enable the rewrite-module:

a2enmod rewrite

Restart apache2:

systemctl restart apache2

Now just follow the common adaptations for reverse proxies.
