How to point a NameCheap Domain to a Digital Ocean Droplet

[@heycherry100]

I jumped straight to 12:40, because I remember how to do everything except the configuration of namecheap and it worked perfectly, thank you very much!😁

[@codewithbubb]

Great! Glad it you got setup.

[@JoshuaWilson-n5u]

not to self: skip to 12:00 ish minutes for the method you are using (not quite the same process at the start of the video, just doing the same process for the namecheap host records part)

Oh man! Thanks, Great stuff. I appreciate this.💘

How to add SSL certificate?

[@codewithbubb]

certbot (free certificate from letsencrypt) is probably your best/easiest way. I did a tutorial on this a while back which you can see here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpqWgJ2GprV7o8U

Hey. Great video thanks. I’m new to docker and found your channel. Will this method support running multiple different docker applications? I’m looking to run plausible (saw your video) and several other self hosted docker apps..thanks

[@codewithbubb]

Thanks very much! Yeah of course, you can run multiple docker apps - obviously just need docker installed on your VPS/Droplet which you can do either manually or via the 1-click install like I did in this video. Your only limitation is going to be RAM but I’m successfully running Plausible/nginx on the most basic Digital Ocean droplet (1GB) and I reckon I could run a few more apps before needing to upgrade. Hope that helps.

Hey thanks…for taking the time to reply! Aha ok…I’m new to any coding stuff but was techy in another life lol…ok so is it feasible to run different apps inside the same docker on DO? I started seeing stuff about needing reverse proxy’s..? Will follow your plausible install video…cheers

[@codewithbubb]

Yeah you can absolutely have multiple apps running. The reverse proxy is intended to expose things to the Internet. So you can have plausible running through your reverse proxy for example but maybe have additional apps which are private.

[@codewithbubb]

If you want to host multiple apps (either in Docker or just apps running on your server) you might be interested in this video where we look at configuring multiple apps running on a reverse proxy: How to Host Multiple Node Apps with nginx and pm2 kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3_aqKiJjNd2mtk

@@codewithbubb thanks. Think I may be getting a bit carried away to start with lol. Plausible looks straightforward. I also want to run typebot self hosted but that needs smtp access…in case you fancy a typebot install video! 😉
