TLS Proxy for Overleaf Toolkit environment
An optional TLS proxy for terminating https connections, based on NGINX.
Run bin/init --tls
to initialise local configuration with NGINX proxy configuration, or to add NGINX proxy configuration to an existing local configuration. A sample private key is created in config/nginx/certs/overleaf_key.pem
and a dummy certificate in config/nginx/certs/overleaf_certificate.pem
. Either replace these with your actual private key and certificate, or set the values of the TLS_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH
and TLS_CERTIFICATE_PATH
variables to the paths of your actual private key and certificate respectively.
A default config for NGINX is provided in config/nginx/nginx.conf
which may be customised to your requirements. The path to the config file can be changed with the NGINX_CONFIG_PATH
variable.
In order for Overleaf to run correctly behind the proxy, the following variables should be uncommented in config/variables.env
Since Overleaf CE/Server Pro 5.x
:
OVERLEAF_BEHIND_PROXY=true
OVERLEAF_SECURE_COOKIE=true
For Overleaf CE/Server Pro 4.x
and older versions:
SHARELATEX_BEHIND_PROXY=true
SHARELATEX_SECURE_COOKIE=true
Add the following section to your config/overleaf.rc
file if it is not there already:
# TLS proxy configuration (optional)
# See documentation in doc/tls-proxy.md
NGINX_ENABLED=false
NGINX_CONFIG_PATH=config/nginx/nginx.conf
NGINX_HTTP_PORT=80
# Replace these IP addresses with the external IP address of your host
NGINX_HTTP_LISTEN_IP=127.0.1.1
NGINX_TLS_LISTEN_IP=127.0.1.1
TLS_PRIVATE_KEY_PATH=config/nginx/certs/overleaf_key.pem
TLS_CERTIFICATE_PATH=config/nginx/certs/overleaf_certificate.pem
TLS_PORT=443
In order to run the proxy, change the value of the NGINX_ENABLED
variable in config/overleaf.rc
from false
to true
and re-run bin/up
.
By default the https web interface will be available on https://127.0.1.1:443
. Connections to http://127.0.1.1:80
will be redirected to https://127.0.1.1:443
. To change the IP address that NGINX listens on, set the NGINX_HTTP_LISTEN_IP
and NGINX_TLS_LISTEN_IP
variables. The ports can be changed via the NGINX_HTTP_PORT
and TLS_PORT
variables.
If NGINX fails to start with the error message Error starting userland proxy: listen tcp4 ... bind: address already in use
ensure that OVERLEAF_LISTEN_IP:OVERLEAF_PORT
does not overlap with NGINX_HTTP_LISTEN_IP:NGINX_HTTP_PORT
.
