CaddyProxyManager+

CaddyProxyManager+ is a modern web UI and management layer that brings Nginx Proxy Manager-style simplicity to Caddy, with extra security add-ons (CrowdSec, WAF, SSO, etc.).

This repository now ships the first working slices of the Go backend and Vite/React frontend described in ARCHITECTURE_PLAN.md.

Issues: https://github.com/Wikid82/CaddyProxyManagerPlus/issues

Tech stack

Backend: Go 1.22, Gin, GORM, SQLite (configurable path via env vars)
Frontend: React 18 + TypeScript, Vite bundler, React Query, React Router
API: REST over /api/v1, currently exposes health + proxy host CRUD

See ARCHITECTURE_PLAN.md for the detailed rationale and roadmap for each tier.

Getting started

Prerequisites

Go 1.22+
Node.js 20+
SQLite3

Quick Start (using Makefile)

# Install all dependencies
make install

# Run tests
make test

# Run backend
make run

# Run frontend (in another terminal)
make run-frontend

# Or run both with tmux
make dev

Manual Setup

Backend API

cd backend
cp .env.example .env # optional overrides
go run ./cmd/api

Run tests:

cd backend
go test ./...

Frontend UI

cd frontend
npm install
npm run dev

The Vite dev server proxies /api/* to http://localhost:8080 so long as the backend is running locally.

Build for production:

cd frontend
npm run build

Docker Deployment

# Build the image
make docker-build

# Run the container
make docker-run

# Or manually:
docker build -t caddyproxymanager-plus .
docker run -p 8080:8080 -v cpm-data:/app/data caddyproxymanager-plus

Tooling

Build system: Makefile provides common development tasks (make help for all commands)
Branching model: development is the integration branch; open PRs from feature/**
CI: .github/workflows/ci.yml runs Go tests, ESLint, and frontend builds
Docker: Multi-stage build with Node (frontend) → Go (backend) → Alpine runtime
