I’m a huge fan of Homebridge and use the web interface provided by homebridge-config-ui-x extensively. I’m also a huge fan of Caddy to automate the creation and management of HTTPS-based websites using Let’s Encrypt.

Lot’s of people ask me why I’m such a fan of Caddy and it’s because configuring it to reverse proxy something is usually pretty easy. In this case, the Caddyfile for homebridge-config-ui-x is as simple as:

https://homebridge.yourdomain.com { root /usr/share/caddy tls { ... } proxy /socket.io http://127.0.0.1:8181 { websocket } proxy / http://127.0.0.1:8181 { transparent } }
