Good evening, Can you explain to me how to switch to https? It's not very clear to me and I have nightscout running smoothly on an rpi 4 with ssd but I'm stuck without https. (no nightscout reporter, no M5stack and lots of other stuff) Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi!

I'm not using node anymore for the TLS (https) termination. This is because the certificate generation was very poorly supported since I tried the last time.

What runs fine for me is using the nginx as a reverse proxy. Nginx is supported very well from letsencrypt. It generates certificates on your behalf.

I configured it on my raspberry by using this tutorial: https://blog.doenselmann.com/nginx-und-lets-encrypt-auf-raspberry-pi/

Maybe it's useful for you.

Hi,

Thank you for the link. So I created a domain name for myself and followed the tutorial. I got the positive message that the letsencrypt certificate is obtained. What should I do next? I am a little lost... Thank you in advance for your help.

The tutorial describes all steps you need. If you already setup everything, you should have an nginx that redirects to your rpi-nightscout docker container. So you should be able to call your configured domain.
