Add Collabora to Nextcloud's Docker Nginx+LetsEncrypt example

Installation & Configuration
1

I’ve been fumbling for the past few days to integrate Collabora/CODE into the docker compose example from Nextcloud. The specific example I’m trying to use includes Nginx for reverse proxy, LetsEncrypt for SSL cert, Postgres for DB.

I’m able to get Nextcloud and the Collabora server to communicate using their own network using http without involving the proxy but then found out that if you’re running Nextcloud with SSL, then you must run Collabora with SSL as well.

I’m not really sure where to go from this point. My requests to Collabora must be https so they have to go through the proxy. As far as I know though, that nginx/companion setup terminates ssl so I’m not sure how that’s going to work…

I’ll leave my NGINX config here too
