code-server through nginx proxies

[bdotsamir]

Description

Hi everyone, I'm in a bit of a pickle.

Picture this, I have a website. For transparency I'll just use my actual domain, akii.dev.
I have said website running on an nginx instance on a raspberry pi.

I would like to add code-server, except I want it running on my local computer instead of my raspberry pi. Shouldn't be an issue, right?

server {
  listen 80;
  server_name code.akii.dev;

  location / {
    proxy_pass https://192.168.1.xxx:8080;
  }
}

And in response, Firefox says:

My predicament is as follows: .dev domains require https. When I start code server with --cert so it has its own self-signed cert, the HSTS issue appears. When i start code server without --cert the HSTS issue appears.

Now normally this wouldn't be an issue, however I can't seem to get certbot working for some odd reason. Whenever I try, it gives me this:

I am in multiple layers of "what the hell do I do now". Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ok! Not sure how I did it, but I used a cert that I generated earlier.. I'm not sure when I did it and how I did but hey I did it.

I changed the port to listen on to 443 and added in the certs, then I used the proxy info from doc/quickstart.md and it all worked.

server {
  listen 443;
  listen [::]:443;
  server_name code.akii.dev;

  location / {
    proxy_pass http://192.168.1.xxx:8080;
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Connection upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Accept-Encoding gzip;
  }

  ssl on;
  ssl_certificate /cert/path;
  ssl_certificate_key /key/path;
}
