title: "Self‑Hosted with Docker + Nginx"
description: "Deploy OpenCodeHub behind a reverse proxy with HTTPS."

This tutorial combines the Docker deployment guide with an Nginx reverse proxy setup.

1) Start services with Docker

cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with production values

docker-compose up -d

2) Configure Nginx

Follow the administration/deploy-nginx guide to configure TLS termination and proxy rules.

3) Seed admin user

docker-compose exec app bun run scripts/seed-admin.ts

4) Validate

• Open your instance URL
• Create a repository
• Test git clone over HTTP or SSH

Tips

• Enable ENABLE_ACTIONS=true if you plan to run workflows.
• Set RUNNER_ENABLED=true and bind the Docker socket for runners.
