Setup a SSL proxy with nginx and redirect port 80 to 443. Make sure you have generate certificate before you start this add-on.



```json
{
  "domain": "home.example.com"
}
```

Configuration variables:

- **domain** (*Required*): Domain they will proxy run with it.

<p class='note'>
It is possible to deactive port 80 if you need this for things like `emulate_hue`. It exists a the moment no UI function for that, so you need call hass.io API with ssh addon:
`curl -d '{"network": {"443/tcp": 443}}' http://172.17.0.2/addons/core_nginx_proxy/options`
