Nginx Proxy Manager had no way to inspect application or nginx logs
from the web UI - admins had to shell into the container or read
`docker logs`. This adds an admin-only Logs page that can tail:
- the backend application log, now also mirrored to
/data/logs/backend.log (in addition to stdout) and rotated by the
logrotate timer that already runs every 2 days
- the Let's Encrypt/certbot log, which certbot already writes to
/data/logs/letsencrypt.log via its existing --logs-dir flag
- per-host nginx access/error logs (proxy, redirection, 404 and
stream hosts), with the file path always resolved server-side from
a validated host_type enum + numeric host_id, never from client
input
Reads use a reverse chunked scan (64KB chunks, capped at 5MB scanned
per request) instead of loading whole files into memory, and the
frontend polls every 5s only while the tab is focused and "Live" is
on, so this stays cheap on both CPU and memory. No new runtime
dependencies were added on either side.
Purely additive: two new admin-only endpoints
(GET /api/logs/sources, GET /api/logs/tail), no existing behaviour
changed.
When Nginx is behind another proxy server (like CloudFlare or AWS ALB), the force-SSL
feature can cause redirect loops because Nginx sees the connection as plain HTTP
while SSL is already handled upstream. This adds a new boolean option to trust
the X-Forwarded-Proto header from upstream proxies.
Changes:
- Add `trust_forwarded_proto` column to proxy_host table (migration)
- Update model and API schema to support the new boolean field
- Modify force-ssl Nginx template to check X-Forwarded-Proto/X-Forwarded-Scheme
- Add map directives in nginx.conf to validate and sanitize forwarded headers
- Add advanced option toggle in frontend UI with i18n support (EN/ZH)
- Set proxy headers from validated map variables instead of $scheme
This allows administrators to control SSL redirect behavior when Nginx is deployed
behind a TLS-terminating proxy.
- Added frontend translation for english
- Moved frontend api logic to hook and backend api space
- Added swagger schema for the new api endpoint
- Moved backend logic to its own internal file
- Added user agent header to github api check
- Added cypress integration test for version check api
- Added a memory cache item from github check to avoid hitting it too
much
- /schema now returns full openapi/swagger schema
- That schema is used to validate incoming requests
- And used as a contract in future integration tests
- Moved route files up one level
- Fixed incorrect 404 reponses when getting objects
- Fixed saving new objects and passing jsonschemavalidation
