## Prerequisites
Setup Wildcard DNS Record(s) for machine running `GoDoxy`, e.g.
- A Record: `*.domain.com` -> `10.0.10.1`
- AAAA Record (if you use IPv6): `*.domain.com` -> `::ffff:a00:a01`
## How does GoDoxy work
1. List all the containers
2. Read container name, labels and port configurations for each of them
3. Create a route if applicable (a route is like a "Virtual Host" in NPM)
GoDoxy uses the label `proxy.aliases` as the subdomain(s), if unset it defaults to `container_name`.
For example, with the label `proxy.aliases: qbt` you can access your app via `qbt.domain.com`.
## Setup
**NOTE:** GoDoxy is designed to be (and only works when) running in `host` network mode, do not change it. To change listening ports, modify `.env`.
1. Prepare a new directory for docker compose and config files.
2. Run setup script inside the directory, or [set up manually](#manual-setup)
```shell
/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/yusing/godoxy/main/scripts/setup.sh)"
```
3. Start the container `docker compose up -d` and wait for it to be ready
4. You may now do some extra configuration on WebUI `https://godoxy.yourdomain.com`
