Configure a Reverse Proxy

[Elwizzy12]

Description: Set up and configure Nginx to act as a reverse proxy. This server will be the single entry point for all frontend applications, routing requests to the appropriate backend services (Fineract, Keycloak).

Acceptance Criteria:

• Nginx is installed and running, ideally within a Docker container to align with your docker-compose setup.

• The Nginx configuration file (nginx.conf or a custom .conf file) is created and properly configured.

• The proxy is set up to listen on a designated port (e.g., 80 or 443 for HTTPS).

• proxy_pass directives are configured to forward requests to the Fineract and Keycloak services. For example, location /api/ should be routed to the Fineract backend, and location /auth/ should be routed to Keycloak.

• The Nginx proxy service is added to your existing docker-compose.yml file

For security:

• All endpoints that the proxy will manage have to be listed explicitly in its config and allowed only with the necessary set of roles.
