# 0.5.0 Migration Guide
## nginx-vhosts
- The nginx-vhosts template language is now [sigil](https://github.com/gliderlabs/sigil)
- No need to escape literal `$` characters (or other "bash-isms")
- Template variables are represented as {{ .VARIABLE_NAME }}
- A detailed list of template variables can be found [here](/dokku/nginx#available-template-variables)
- A custom nginx-vhosts template must be named `nginx.conf.sigil`
- The default path for this custom template is the root of your repo (i.e. `/app` in the container or `WORKDIR` if defined in a dockerfile app)
- Dokku no longer looks for this file in `/home/dokku/myapp` on the dokku server
- Check out an example template [here](/dokku/nginx/)
- Support for server-wide SSL certs have been dropped in favor of using the `certs` plugin
- `dokku certs:add myapp < certs.tar`
- All domains for an SSL-enabled app will be redirected to https by default
- This can be overridden with a custom template
- Replaced "magic" `NO_VHOST` variable with `domains:enable/disable`
- Simplified zero downtime control
- `checks:enable/disable`
## Dockerfile apps with multiple ports
- Dockerfiles with multiple `EXPOSE` clauses will get all **tcp** ports proxied by default (nginx does not support proxying udp)
- UDP can be exposed by disabling the nginx proxy with `dokku proxy:disable myapp`

## Running behind a load balancer
> New as of 0.3.17
Your application has access to the HTTP headers `X-Forwarded-Proto`, `X-Forwarded-For` and `X-Forwarded-Port`. These headers indicate the protocol of the original request (HTTP or HTTPS), the port number, and the IP address of the client making the request, respectively. The default configuration is for Nginx to set these headers.
If your server runs behind an HTTP/S load balancer, then Nginx will see all requests as coming from the load balancer. If your load balancer sets the `X-Forwarded-` headers, you can tell Nginx to pass these headers from load balancer to your application by setting the `DOKKU_SSL_TERMINATED` environment variable:

## Customizing the nginx configuration
> New as of 0.3.10.
Dokku uses a templating library by the name of [sigil](https://github.com/gliderlabs/sigil) to generate nginx configuration for each app. If you'd like to provide a custom template for your application, there are a couple options:
Dokku currently templates out an nginx configuration that is included in the `nginx-vhosts` plugin. If you'd like to provide a custom template for your application, there are a few options:
- Copy the existing pertinent (ssl or non-ssl) template found (by default) in `/var/lib/dokku/plugins/available/nginx-vhosts/templates`, place it either in `/home/dokku/APP` or check it into the root of your app repo, and name it one of the following:
- `nginx.conf.template` (since 0.3.10)
- `nginx.conf.ssl_terminated.template` (since 0.4.0)
- `nginx.ssl.conf.template` (since 0.4.2)
> If placed on the dokku server, the template file **must** be owned by user and group `dokku:dokku`.
For instance - assuming defaults - to customize the nginx template in use for the `myapp` application, create the file `nginx.conf.template` in your repo or on disk with the with the following contents:
- Copy the following example template to a file named `nginx.conf.sigil` and either:
- check it into the root of your app repo
- `ADD` it to your dockerfile `WORKDIR`
### Example Custom Template
```

listen [::]:80;

access_log /var/log/nginx/${APP}-access.log;

}

upstream {{ .APP }} {
{{ range .DOKKU_APP_LISTENERS | split " " }}
server {{ . }};
{{ end }}
}
include $DOKKU_ROOT/$APP/nginx.conf.d/*.conf;
}
```
The above is a sample http configuration that adds an `X-Served-By` header to requests.
A few tips for custom nginx templates:
- Special characters - dollar signs, spaces inside of quotes, etc. - should be escaped with a single backslash or can cause deploy failures.
- Templated files will be validated via `nginx -t`.
- Application environment variables can be used within your nginx configuration.
After your changes a `dokku deploy myapp` will regenerate the `/home/dokku/myapp/nginx.conf` file which is then used.
### Available template variables
```
{{ .APP }} Application name
{{ .APP_SSL_PATH }} Path to SSL certificate and key
{{ .DOKKU_ROOT }} Global dokku root directory (ex: app dir would be `{{ .DOKKU_ROOT }}/{{ .APP }}`)
{{ .DOKKU_APP_LISTENERS }} List of IP:PORT pairs of app containers
{{ .NGINX_PORT }} Non-SSL nginx listener port (same as `DOKKU_NGINX_PORT` config var)
{{ .NGINX_SSL_PORT }} SSL nginx listener port (same as `DOKKU_NGINX_SSL_PORT` config var)
{{ .NOSSL_SERVER_NAME }} List of non-SSL VHOSTS
{{ .RAW_TCP_PORTS }} List of exposed tcp ports as defined by Dockerfile `EXPOSE` directive (**Dockerfile apps only**)
{{ .SSL_INUSE }} Boolean set when an app is SSL-enabled
{{ .SSL_SERVER_NAME }} List of SSL VHOSTS

### Disabling VHOSTS
If desired, it is possible to disable vhosts by setting the environment variable `NO_VHOST=1`:
```shell
dokku config:set myapp NO_VHOST=1
```
On subsequent deploys, the nginx virtualhost will be discarded. This is useful when deploying internal-facing services that should not be publicly routeable. As of 0.4.0, nginx will still be configured to proxy your app on some random high port. This allows internal services to maintain the same port between deployments. You may change this port by setting `DOKKU_NGINX_PORT` and/or `DOKKU_NGINX_SSL_PORT` (for services configured to use SSL.)

The domains plugin allows you to specify custom domains for applications. This plugin is aware of any ssl certificates that are imported via `nginx:import-ssl`. Be aware that setting `NO_VHOST` will override any custom domains.

## Container network interface binding
> New as of 0.3.13
The deployed docker container running your app's web process will bind to either the internal docker network interface (i.e. `docker inspect --format '{{ .NetworkSettings.IPAddress }}' $CONTAINER_ID`) or an external interface (i.e. 0.0.0.0) depending on dokku's VHOST configuration. Dokku will attempt to bind to the internal docker network interface unless you specifically set NO_VHOST for the given app or your dokku installation is not setup to use VHOSTS (i.e. $DOKKU_ROOT/VHOST is missing or $DOKKU_ROOT/HOSTNAME is set to an IPv4 or IPv6 address)

# Proxy plugin
As of dokku 0.5.0, the proxy functionality has been decoupled from the nginx-vhosts plugin into the proxy plugin. In the future this will allow other proxy software (HAproxy for example) to be used instead of nginx.

proxy:enable <app> Enable proxy for app

## Container network interface binding
By default, the deployed docker container running your app's web process will bind to the internal docker network interface (i.e. `docker inspect --format '{{ .NetworkSettings.IPAddress }}' $CONTAINER_ID`). This behavior can be modified per app by disabling the proxy (i.e. `dokku proxy:disable <app>`). In this case, the container will bind to an external interface (i.e. 0.0.0.0) and your app container will be directly accessible by other hosts on your network.
```shell
# container bound to docker interface
