Caddy for general reverse proxy stuff, works like magic and makes certs, routing, etc just work.
I also have a lot of my stuff subsequently reverse proxied behind Authentik for anything that shouldn't be exposed to the public internet
I love that about Caddy as well, it just works!
Do you know of any tool that can help me look at overall traffic that goes through it?
Right now I am using Mullvad through gluetun to essentially route traffic to my services without opening ports on my router and I am just curious what sort of traffic is hitting my server seeing how (I hope) isolated my address seems to be (servicename.mydomain.tld:)
I will soon migrate this reverse proxy setup to a VPS since Mullvad will be sunsetting their port forwarding feature soon but I am still in need of a tool that can show me what sort of traffic goes through Caddy. Something like countries, IPs and services that they are trying to access as well as the request types.
I haven't looked in detail at the Monitoring Caddy documentation page and haven't used this myself, but apparently it can be configured to emit a bunch of metrics in Prometheus format.
Oh, for that kind of thing you'd need to parse the log files instead. GoAccess maybe?
GoAccess sounds perfect, thank you! Exactly what I have been looking for!
