jwilder/nginx-proxy and accessing Emby via /emby URL

[pentago 2]

I'm trying to configure jwilder/nginx-proxy Docker image to be able to access my Emby instance via http://ip/emby URL.

Now, Im not sure if this is even possible but I'm assuming it is, particularily with using dev branch image tag (jwilder/nginx-proxy:dev-alpine)

 

Does anyone has experience with this reverse proxy setup and proxying the URL rather than subdomain?

Any suggestion might help, thanks!

Hi, have you taken a look at @pir8radio's nginx config?

sub directory will give you issues almost always..  Sub domain is a lot cleaner and all features work using sub domain.

I Use Swag Proxy (nginx LE Fail2ban proxy) and they have an example proxy config for subfolder, i post this as an example, that they use for their container so it may give you some pointers, i doubt it would work direct on your reverse proxy but it will give you an idea

 

## Version 2021/05/18
# make sure that your dns has a cname set for emby
# if emby is running in bridge mode and the container is named "emby", the below config should work as is
# if not, replace the line "set $upstream_app emby;" with "set $upstream_app <containername>;"
# or "set $upstream_app <HOSTIP>;" for host mode, HOSTIP being the IP address of emby
# in emby settings, under "Advanced" change the public https port to 443, leave the local ports as is, set the "external domain" to your url and subdomain,
# and set the "Secure connection mode" to "Handled by reverse proxy"

location /emby {
    return 301 $scheme://$host/emby/;
}

location ^~ /emby/ {
    include /config/nginx/proxy.conf;
    include /config/nginx/resolver.conf;
    set $upstream_app emby;
    set $upstream_port 8096;
    set $upstream_proto http;
    proxy_pass $upstream_proto://$upstream_app:$upstream_port;

    proxy_set_header Range $http_range;
    proxy_set_header If-Range $http_if_range;
}

location ^~ /embywebsocket {
    include /config/nginx/proxy.conf;
    include /config/nginx/resolver.conf;
    set $upstream_app emby;
    set $upstream_port 8096;
    set $upstream_proto http;
    proxy_pass $upstream_proto://$upstream_app:$upstream_port;

}
