I have a Nextcloud instance via Hetzner. I would like to use Collabora CODE to edit online documents with my own server to handle Collabora docs.

I have a vps with docker running and have run the following image via docker-compose:

```auto
version: "3.5"
services:
  collabora:
    image: collabora/code
    container_name: collabora
    restart: unless-stopped
    environment:
      - extra_params=o:ssl.enable=false
      - domain=nx123456\\.your-storageshare\\.de # the domain of my nextcloud instance (amended to be fictional)
      - dictionaries=en_US
    ports:
      - "9980:9980"
    volumes:
      - ./appdata/collabora:/config

```

After running this container, if I type `curl -k https://localhost:9980` in the terminal I get the OK string. So all seems well?

Now I have two separate cloud entities. My Nextcloud instance and my VPS running Collabora code via docker-compose.

Both of these services are separate and independent of each other, yet they are both provided by Hetzner.

If the domain of my Nextcloud instance is e.g. `nx123456\\.your-storageshare\\.de` and if the IP address of my vps is e.g. (fictional) `123.456.789.123`, what should I do next to connect these services so that I can use my collabora server with my Nextcloud instance?
