I immediately started with using docker-compose because I was playing with a “playground” server from my provider and I wanted to be able to move my setup to the “production” server after setting things up. It’s much easier than the long docker run commands some docs suggest.
One question about the UID and GID, I’ve run into some trouble because the official Caddy image runs as root, so I had to set php-fpm also as root because otherwise it was causing problem. So what do you suggest to do with all my containers (I do not mean Caddy and php right now)? Should I run everything as the same UID and GID, or every container with it’s own user?
Yeah, I love Caddy so much. I’ve only ever used Nginx before, and it was a pain to configure. With Caddy, it’s just a few lines, and the automatic HTTPS is very nice.
Thanks for the SSH port tip, I’ve disabled password auth on all my servers before and only used key auth, but I will move the port to something other for extra security.
I checked out the Free tier and I like it a lot, already created an instance and tested it a little, and I believe it’s more than enough for running Caddy and Uptime Kuma, so thank you very much for this :)
