### Can I use this behind a reverse proxy, like Apache2?
Yes, here is an example Apache2 config that redirects a subdomain (with HTTPS certificate) to LibreTranslate running on a docker at localhost.
```
sudo docker run -ti --rm -p 127.0.0.1:5000:5000 libretranslate/libretranslate
```
You can remove `127.0.0.1` on the above command if you want to be able to access it from `domain.tld:5000`, in addition to `subdomain.domain.tld` (this can be helpful to determine if there is an issue with Apache2 or the docker container).
Add `--restart unless-stopped` if you want this docker to start on boot, unless manually stopped.

Replace [YOUR_DOMAIN] with your full domain; for example, `translate.domain.tld` or `libretranslate.domain.tld`.
Remove `#` on the ErrorLog and CustomLog lines to log requests.
```ApacheConf
#Libretranslate
#Redirect http to https
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName http://[YOUR_DOMAIN]
Redirect / https://[YOUR_DOMAIN]
# ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/error.log
# CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/tr-access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
#https
<VirtualHost *:443>
ServerName https://[YOUR_DOMAIN]
ProxyPass / http://127.0.0.1:5000/
ProxyPassReverse / http://127.0.0.1:5000/
SSLEngine on
SSLCertificateFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/[YOUR_DOMAIN]/fullchain.pem
SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/[YOUR_DOMAIN]/privkey.pem
SSLCertificateChainFile /etc/letsencrypt/live/[YOUR_DOMAIN]/fullchain.pem
# ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/tr-error.log
# CustomLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/tr-access.log combined
</VirtualHost>
```
Add this to an existing site config, or a new file in `/etc/apache2/sites-available/new-site.conf` and run `sudo a2ensite new-site.conf`.
To get a HTTPS subdomain certificate, install `certbot` (snap), run `sudo certbot certonly --manual --preferred-challenges dns` and enter your information (with `subdomain.domain.tld` as the domain). Add a DNS TXT record with your domain registrar when asked. This will save your certificate and key to `/etc/letsencrypt/live/{subdomain.domain.tld}/`. Alternatively, comment the SSL lines out if you don't want to use HTTPS.
