+# Traefik Reverse Proxy Configuration
+
+This directory contains the Traefik reverse proxy configuration for managing SSL certificates and routing traffic to services.
+
+## Services Managed
+
+- **Mealie** (recipes.pkartchner.com) - Recipe manager
+- **Gogs** (git.pkartchner.com) - Git repository server
+- **Traefik Dashboard** (traefik.pkartchner.com) - Traefik management UI
+
+## Features
+
+- ✅ Automatic HTTPS with Let's Encrypt SSL certificates
+- ✅ Automatic HTTP to HTTPS redirect
+- ✅ Docker service discovery
+- ✅ Security headers middleware
+- ✅ Traefik dashboard with basic auth
+
+## Files
+
+- `docker-compose.yml` - Traefik container configuration
+- `traefik.yml` - Main Traefik configuration
+- `config.yml` - Dynamic configuration for external services
+- `acme.json` - Let's Encrypt certificate storage (auto-generated)
+
+## Setup
+
+### 1. DNS Configuration
+
+Ensure these DNS records point to your server's public IP:
+
+```
+A    recipes.pkartchner.com    →  YOUR_PUBLIC_IP
+A    git.pkartchner.com        →  YOUR_PUBLIC_IP
+A    traefik.pkartchner.com    →  YOUR_PUBLIC_IP
+```
+
+### 2. Start Traefik
+
+```bash
+cd /srv/docker-compose/traefik
+docker compose up -d
+```
+
+### 3. Check Logs
+
+```bash
+docker logs traefik -f
+```
+
+## Dashboard Access
+
+Access the Traefik dashboard at: `https://traefik.pkartchner.com`
+
+**Default credentials:**
+- Username: `admin`
+- Password: `change-this-password`
+
+**Change the password:**
+```bash
+# Generate new password hash
+echo $(htpasswd -nb admin yournewpassword) | sed -e s/\\$/\\$\\$/g
+
+# Update the label in docker-compose.yml:
+# traefik.http.middlewares.traefik-auth.basicauth.users=admin:$HASH
+```
+
+## SSL Certificates
+
+Traefik automatically obtains and renews SSL certificates from Let's Encrypt.
+
+- Certificates are stored in `acme.json`
+- Auto-renewal happens 30 days before expiration
+- Email notifications sent to: pkartch@gmail.com
+
+### Staging vs Production
+
+The configuration uses **Let's Encrypt production** by default.
+
+To use **staging** (for testing, to avoid rate limits):
+Uncomment this line in `traefik.yml`:
+```yaml
+caServer: https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory
+```
+
+## Port Configuration
+
+- **80** - HTTP (redirects to HTTPS)
+- **443** - HTTPS (main entry point)
+- **8080** - Traefik dashboard
+
+## Adding New Services
+
+### Docker Services
+
+Add labels to your service's docker-compose.yml:
+
+```yaml
+services:
+  myservice:
+    labels:
+      - "traefik.enable=true"
+      - "traefik.http.routers.myservice.rule=Host(`myservice.pkartchner.com`)"
+      - "traefik.http.routers.myservice.entrypoints=https"
+      - "traefik.http.routers.myservice.tls.certresolver=letsencrypt"
+      - "traefik.http.services.myservice.loadbalancer.server.port=PORT"
+    networks:
+      - traefik
+```
+
+### External Services
+
+Add to `config.yml`:
+
+```yaml
+http:
+  routers:
+    myservice:
+      rule: "Host(`myservice.pkartchner.com`)"
+      entryPoints:
+        - https
+      service: myservice
+      tls:
+        certResolver: letsencrypt
+
+  services:
+    myservice:
+      loadBalancer:
+        servers:
+          - url: "http://INTERNAL_IP:PORT"
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Check Traefik logs
+```bash
+docker logs traefik --tail 100
+```
+
+### Verify network
+```bash
+docker network ls | grep traefik
+```
+
+### Test certificate
+```bash
+openssl s_client -connect recipes.pkartchner.com:443 -servername recipes.pkartchner.com
+```
+
+### Reload configuration
+```bash
+docker compose restart traefik
+```
+
+## Security Notes
+
+- Change the default dashboard password immediately
+- Keep `acme.json` permissions at 600
+- Regularly update Traefik image
+- Monitor access logs
+- Consider disabling the dashboard in production
+
+## Maintenance
+
+### Update Traefik
+```bash
+docker compose pull
+docker compose up -d
+```
+
+### Backup certificates
+```bash
+cp acme.json acme.json.backup
+```
+
+### View certificate info
+Check the Traefik dashboard under "HTTP" → "Routers"

+# Traefik Setup - Next Steps
+
+## Current Status ✅
+
+Traefik has been successfully installed and configured! Here's what's done:
+
+- ✅ Traefik container running
+- ✅ Mealie connected to Traefik network
+- ✅ HTTP to HTTPS redirect working
+- ✅ Automatic SSL with Let's Encrypt configured
+- ✅ Gogs routing configured
+
+## What You Need to Do
+
+### 1. Configure DNS Records ⚠️ REQUIRED
+
+Before SSL certificates can be obtained, you need to add DNS A records pointing to your server's **public IP address**:
+
+```
+Type    Name                            Value (Points to)
+----    ----                            -----------------
+A       recipes.pkartchner.com          YOUR_PUBLIC_IP
+A       git.pkartchner.com              YOUR_PUBLIC_IP
+A       traefik.pkartchner.com          YOUR_PUBLIC_IP  (optional - for dashboard)
+```
+
+**How to find your public IP:**
+```bash
+curl ifconfig.me
+```
+
+**Where to add DNS records:**
+- Log in to your domain registrar (where you bought pkartchner.com)
+- Go to DNS management
+- Add the A records above
+- Wait 5-60 minutes for DNS propagation
+
+### 2. Configure EdgeRouter Port Forwarding
+
+Forward ports 80 and 443 from your EdgeRouter to this server:
+
+```
+WAN Port    LAN IP              LAN Port    Protocol
+--------    ------              --------    --------
+80          YOUR_SERVER_IP      80          TCP
+443         YOUR_SERVER_IP      443         TCP
+```
+
+**EdgeRouter CLI commands:**
+```bash
+configure
+set port-forward auto-firewall enable
+set port-forward hairpin-nat enable
+set port-forward wan-interface eth0
+set port-forward rule 1 description "HTTP to Traefik"
+set port-forward rule 1 forward-to address YOUR_SERVER_IP
+set port-forward rule 1 forward-to port 80
+set port-forward rule 1 original-port 80
+set port-forward rule 1 protocol tcp
+set port-forward rule 2 description "HTTPS to Traefik"
+set port-forward rule 2 forward-to address YOUR_SERVER_IP
+set port-forward rule 2 forward-to port 443
+set port-forward rule 2 original-port 443
+set port-forward rule 2 protocol tcp
+commit
+save
+exit
+```
+
+### 3. Verify SSL Certificates (After DNS Propagates)
+
+Once DNS is configured and propagated:
+
+```bash
+# Check Traefik logs for SSL certificate generation
+docker logs traefik -f
+
+# You should see messages like:
+# "Server responded with a certificate"
+# "Certificate obtained for domain recipes.pkartchner.com"
+```
+
+### 4. Test Your Setup
+
+After DNS propagation and SSL certificates are obtained:
+
+**Test Mealie:**
+```bash
+# Should redirect to HTTPS and show valid certificate
+curl -I https://recipes.pkartchner.com
+```
+
+**Test Gogs:**
+```bash
+# Should redirect to HTTPS and show valid certificate
+curl -I https://git.pkartchner.com
+```
+
+**Access Traefik Dashboard:**
+```
+URL: https://traefik.pkartchner.com
+Username: admin
+Password: change-this-password
+```
+
+### 5. Change Traefik Dashboard Password
+
+Generate a new password hash:
+```bash
+apt install apache2-utils
+echo $(htpasswd -nb admin YourNewPassword) | sed -e s/\\$/\\$\\$/g
+```
+
+Update the password in `/srv/docker-compose/traefik/docker-compose.yml`:
+```yaml
+- "traefik.http.middlewares.traefik-auth.basicauth.users=admin:$NEW_HASH"
+```
+
+Then restart Traefik:
+```bash
+cd /srv/docker-compose/traefik
+docker compose restart
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### SSL Certificate Errors
+
+If you see "DNS problem: NXDOMAIN" in logs:
+- ✅ DNS records are not set up yet or haven't propagated
+- ⏰ Wait for DNS propagation (can take up to 24 hours)
+- 🔍 Check DNS with: `dig recipes.pkartchner.com` or `nslookup recipes.pkartchner.com`
+
+### Can't Access Services
+
+1. **Check if Traefik is running:**
+   ```bash
+   docker ps | grep traefik
+   ```
+
+2. **Check Traefik logs:**
+   ```bash
+   docker logs traefik --tail 50
+   ```
+
+3. **Verify containers are on Traefik network:**
+   ```bash
+   docker network inspect traefik
+   ```
+
+4. **Test local access:**
+   ```bash
+   curl -H "Host: recipes.pkartchner.com" http://localhost
+   ```
+
+### 503 Service Unavailable
+
+- Check if Mealie/Gogs containers are running
+- Verify they're on the Traefik network
+- Check container logs
+
+## Services Summary
+
+| Service | Domain | Backend Port | Status |
+|---------|--------|--------------|--------|
+| Mealie | recipes.pkartchner.com | localhost:9091 | ✅ Configured |
+| Gogs | git.pkartchner.com | gogs.pkartchner.com:3000 | ✅ Configured |
+| Traefik | traefik.pkartchner.com | localhost:8080 | ✅ Configured |
+
+## Important Security Notes
+
+1. **Firewall**: Only ports 80, 443, and 22 (SSH) should be open to the internet
+2. **Dashboard**: Change the default Traefik dashboard password immediately
+3. **Backups**: acme.json contains your SSL certificates - back it up
+4. **Updates**: Regularly update Traefik for security patches
+
+## Quick Commands
+
+```bash
+# View Traefik dashboard locally
+curl http://localhost:8080/dashboard/
+
+# Check SSL certificates
+docker exec traefik cat /acme.json | jq .
+
+# Restart all services
+cd /srv/docker-compose/traefik && docker compose restart
+cd /srv/docker-compose/mealie && docker compose restart
+
+# View logs
+docker logs traefik -f
+docker logs mealie -f
+```
+
+## When Everything is Working
+
+You should be able to:
+- ✅ Access Mealie at https://recipes.pkartchner.com (with valid SSL)
+- ✅ Access Gogs at https://git.pkartchner.com (with valid SSL)
+- ✅ Access Traefik dashboard at https://traefik.pkartchner.com
+- ✅ HTTP automatically redirects to HTTPS
+- ✅ All connections encrypted with Let's Encrypt certificates
