Internal domain and reverse proxy (lemmy.zip)

I'm going round in circles on this one.

What I want to do is:

  • serve up my self-hosted apps with https (to local clients only - nothing over the open web)
  • address them as 'app.server.lan' or 'sever.lan/app'
  • preferably host whatever is needed in docker

I think this is achievable with a reverse proxy, some kind of DNS server and self-signed certs. I'm not a complete noob but my knowledge in this area is lacking. I've done a fair bit of research but I'm probably not using the right terminology or whatever.

Would anyone have a link to a good guide that covers this?

I have a similar setup, with a public domain hosted by cloudflare. Internally, I use caddy with the DNS feature pointing to the cloudflare using their API and letsencrypt certs.

Something like this: https://webenclave.com/2024/11/07/setting-up-a-secure-local-network-with-caddy-cloudflare-dns-and-lets-encrypt/

I can also share more details, maybe my compose files and caddy setup if you need them.
