title: "Deployment examples"
description: "Copy-ready setups for self-hosted Reactive Resume: Caddy, Traefik and nginx with HTTPS, S3 storage, Redis, local AI with Ollama, and more."
---
Each section on this page solves one common self-hosting task and builds on the two-container setup from
[Self-hosting with Docker](/self-hosting/docker). Replace `resume.example.com` with your own domain, and keep the
`.env` file from that guide unless a section says otherwise.
## What every reverse proxy needs
Whatever proxy you use, configure it so that:
- **The whole site goes to the app.** The app serves pages, the API (`/api/`), the MCP server (`/mcp`), uploads and
assets from one address. Don't split or rewrite paths.
- **`APP_URL` is the public address**, for example `APP_URL="https://resume.example.com"`.
- **Client-supplied IP headers are replaced or removed.** The Node server uses its connection's remote address for
IP-based limits, such as sign-in attempts and public resume passwords, and ignores forwarded IP headers. Behind a
reverse proxy, users share the proxy's IP-based limit. Vercel uses the client address supplied by its deployment
adapter. The examples below also replace `X-Forwarded-For` and remove alternate IP headers at the proxy.
- **Streaming responses aren't buffered**, and idle reads are allowed for at least 5 minutes. Assistant replies and
live updates stream from the server, and a single Assistant reply can take up to 4 minutes.
- **Request bodies of at least 50 MB are accepted.** People can attach files of up to 25 MB to the Assistant, and
the browser sends them base64-encoded, which makes them about a third larger.
<Warning>
Once a proxy is in front, don't publish the app's port `3000` on a public interface, or clients can bypass the proxy's
HTTPS and access controls. Remove the `ports` entry, or bind it to `127.0.0.1:3000:3000`.
</Warning>
## Caddy
[Caddy](https://caddyserver.com/) gets and renews HTTPS certificates on its own and streams responses without extra
settings, so it needs the least configuration.
```yaml compose.yml
services:
caddy:
image: caddy:2
restart: unless-stopped
ports:
- "80:80"
- "443:443"
- "443:443/udp"
volumes:
- ./Caddyfile:/etc/caddy/Caddyfile:ro
- caddy_data:/data
postgres:
image: postgres:18
restart: unless-stopped
environment:
POSTGRES_DB: postgres
POSTGRES_USER: postgres
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: ${POSTGRES_PASSWORD}
volumes:
- postgres_data:/var/lib/postgresql
healthcheck:
test: ["CMD-SHELL", "pg_isready -U postgres -d postgres"]
interval: 10s
timeout: 5s
retries: 10
reactive-resume:
image: amruthpillai/reactive-resume:latest
restart: unless-stopped
env_file: .env
volumes:
- reactive_resume_data:/app/data
depends_on:
postgres:
condition: service_healthy
volumes:
caddy_data:
postgres_data:
reactive_resume_data:
```
```text Caddyfile
resume.example.com {
request_body {
max_size 50MB
}
reverse_proxy reactive-resume:3000 {
header_up -CF-Connecting-IP
header_up -CF-Connecting-IPv6
header_up -True-Client-IP
}
}
```
Point your domain's DNS at the server, set `APP_URL="https://resume.example.com"` in `.env`, and run
`docker compose up -d`. Caddy replaces any `X-Forwarded-For` header a client sends with the real client address, and
the `header_up` lines drop the other IP headers.
## Traefik
[Traefik](https://traefik.io/) reads its routes from Docker labels and gets certificates from Let's Encrypt.
```yaml compose.yml lines expandable
services:
traefik:
image: traefik:v3
restart: unless-stopped
command:
- "--providers.docker=true"
- "--providers.docker.exposedbydefault=false"
- "--entrypoints.web.address=:80"
- "--entrypoints.web.http.redirections.entrypoint.to=websecure"
- "--entrypoints.web.http.redirections.entrypoint.scheme=https"
- "--entrypoints.websecure.address=:443"
- "--certificatesresolvers.letsencrypt.acme.httpchallenge=true"
- "--certificatesresolvers.letsencrypt.acme.httpchallenge.entrypoint=web"
- "--certificatesresolvers.letsencrypt.acme.email=${ACME_EMAIL}"
- "--certificatesresolvers.letsencrypt.acme.storage=/letsencrypt/acme.json"
ports:
- "80:80"
- "443:443"
volumes:
- /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock:ro
- traefik_letsencrypt:/letsencrypt
postgres:
image: postgres:18
restart: unless-stopped
environment:
POSTGRES_DB: postgres
POSTGRES_USER: postgres
POSTGRES_PASSWORD: ${POSTGRES_PASSWORD}
volumes:
- postgres_data:/var/lib/postgresql
healthcheck:
test: ["CMD-SHELL", "pg_isready -U postgres -d postgres"]
interval: 10s
timeout: 5s
retries: 10
reactive-resume:
image: amruthpillai/reactive-resume:latest
restart: unless-stopped
env_file: .env
volumes:
- reactive_resume_data:/app/data
depends_on:
postgres:
condition: service_healthy
labels:
- "traefik.enable=true"
- "traefik.http.routers.reactive-resume.rule=Host(`resume.example.com`)"
- "traefik.http.routers.reactive-resume.entrypoints=websecure"
- "traefik.http.routers.reactive-resume.tls.certresolver=letsencrypt"
- "traefik.http.services.reactive-resume.loadbalancer.server.port=3000"
# Drop client-supplied IP headers; Traefik sets X-Forwarded-For itself.
- "traefik.http.middlewares.reactive-resume-ip.headers.customrequestheaders.CF-Connecting-IP="
- "traefik.http.middlewares.reactive-resume-ip.headers.customrequestheaders.CF-Connecting-IPv6="
- "traefik.http.middlewares.reactive-resume-ip.headers.customrequestheaders.True-Client-IP="
- "traefik.http.routers.reactive-resume.middlewares=reactive-resume-ip"
volumes:
traefik_letsencrypt:
postgres_data:
reactive_resume_data:
```
Add `ACME_EMAIL="you@example.com"` to `.env` for Let's Encrypt notices. Traefik skips containers whose health check
fails, so it only routes to the app once `/api/health` answers `200`.
## nginx
With [nginx](https://nginx.org/) you manage certificates yourself, for example with
[Certbot](https://certbot.eff.org/). Add this service to the compose file from the Docker guide, and remove the
`ports` entry from the `reactive-resume` service:
```yaml compose.yml
nginx:
image: nginx:stable-alpine
restart: unless-stopped
ports:
- "80:80"
- "443:443"
volumes:
- ./nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf:ro
- ./certs:/etc/nginx/certs:ro
depends_on:
- reactive-resume
```
```nginx nginx.conf lines expandable
server {
listen 80;
server_name resume.example.com;
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}
server {
listen 443 ssl;
http2 on;
server_name resume.example.com;
ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/certs/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/certs/privkey.pem;
ssl_protocols TLSv1.2 TLSv1.3;
# Assistant attachments can be up to 25 MB, sent base64-encoded.

proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
# Don't pass client-supplied IP headers on (an empty value removes them).
proxy_set_header CF-Connecting-IP "";
proxy_set_header CF-Connecting-IPv6 "";
proxy_set_header True-Client-IP "";
# Assistant replies and live updates stream; don't hold them back.
proxy_buffering off;
proxy_cache off;
proxy_read_timeout 300s;
proxy_send_timeout 300s;
}
}
```
## Use an existing PostgreSQL server
If you already run PostgreSQL, or use a managed database, leave out the `postgres` service and point `DATABASE_URL`
at your server. Create an empty database and a user that owns it; the app creates its tables on first start.
```bash .env
DATABASE_URL="postgresql://reactive_resume:password@db.example.com:5432/reactive_resume?sslmode=verify-full"
```
- Use `sslmode=verify-full` (or your provider's equivalent) whenever the connection leaves the host, so the app checks
the server's certificate.
- If `DATABASE_URL` points at a connection pooler, add a direct connection in `DATABASE_MIGRATION_URL` for startup
migrations.
- Never expose PostgreSQL to the internet without TLS and a firewall.
## Store uploads in S3-compatible storage
S3 storage lets you drop the `/app/data` volume, and it's required if people attach files in the Assistant. The app
switches to S3 once the access key, secret key and bucket are all set. The bucket can stay private: the app reads
objects with its own credentials and serves them itself.
<Tabs>
<Tab title="AWS S3">
```bash .env
S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID="AKIA..."
S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="..."
S3_BUCKET="my-reactive-resume"
S3_REGION="eu-central-1"
```
</Tab>
<Tab title="Cloudflare R2">
```bash .env
S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID="..."
S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="..."
S3_BUCKET="reactive-resume"
S3_REGION="auto"
S3_ENDPOINT="https://<account-id>.r2.cloudflarestorage.com"
```
</Tab>
<Tab title="MinIO or SeaweedFS">
```bash .env
S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID="..."
S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="..."
S3_BUCKET="reactive-resume"
S3_ENDPOINT="http://minio:9000"
S3_FORCE_PATH_STYLE="true"
```
</Tab>
</Tabs>
The bucket must exist before the app starts. Check `/api/health`: its `storage` entry should show `"type": "s3"` and
`"status": "healthy"`. Files already in `/app/data` aren't moved; copy them into the bucket, keeping their paths, if you
switch an existing instance.
## Add Redis and turn on AI
Personal AI providers need `ENCRYPTION_SECRET`; [shared AI configuration](/self-hosting/job-search-and-ai) does not.
Redis is optional on a single server, but with it an Assistant reply keeps
streaming after a page reload. Add a Redis service to your compose file:
```yaml compose.yml
redis:
image: redis:8
restart: unless-stopped
command: redis-server --appendonly yes
volumes:
- redis_data:/data
healthcheck:
test: ["CMD", "redis-cli", "ping"]
interval: 10s
timeout: 5s
retries: 10
```
Add `redis_data:` under `volumes:`, and add `redis` to the app's `depends_on` with `condition: service_healthy`. Then
add to `.env`:
```bash .env
# Generate with: openssl rand -hex 32. Keep it different from AUTH_SECRET.
ENCRYPTION_SECRET="..."
REDIS_URL="redis://redis:6379"
```
Run `docker compose up -d`. People can now add their own AI provider; see [Connecting an AI provider](/guides/using-ai)
and [Using the Assistant](/guides/using-the-assistant).
<Note>
Redis holds streaming Assistant replies, which include people's messages. Keep it on the private Docker network and
don't publish its port.
</Note>
## Use a local AI model with Ollama
To keep AI requests on your own hardware, run [Ollama](https://ollama.com/) next to the app. By default the app only
accepts public `https://` provider addresses, so you turn on a flag that allows local ones.
<Warning>
`FLAG_ALLOW_UNSAFE_AI_BASE_URL` lets every user make your server send requests to any address on your network. Only
turn it on for an instance where you trust every user, such as a personal or family server.
</Warning>
<Steps>
<Step title="Add Ollama to compose.yml">
```yaml compose.yml
ollama:
image: ollama/ollama
restart: unless-stopped
volumes:
- ollama_data:/root/.ollama
```
Add `ollama_data:` under `volumes:`, start it, and download a model:
```bash
docker compose up -d ollama
docker compose exec ollama ollama pull llama3.1
```
</Step>
<Step title="Allow local AI addresses">
Add to `.env`, next to the `ENCRYPTION_SECRET` from the previous section:
```bash .env
FLAG_ALLOW_UNSAFE_AI_BASE_URL="true"
# Local models can take a while to load on first use.
AI_TEST_TIMEOUT_MS="120000"
```
Run `docker compose up -d` to apply it.
</Step>
<Step title="Add the provider in Reactive Resume">
Open **Settings**, then **AI & developer**, and select **Add provider**. Choose **Ollama** as the provider and
fill in:
- **API key**: leave empty for a local Ollama server that doesn't require authentication.
- **Model**: the model you pulled, for example `llama3.1`.
- **Base URL**: `http://ollama:11434/api`
Select **Save and test**. The app saves the provider once Ollama answers.
<Frame caption="The Add provider dialog set up for an Ollama container on the same Docker network">
<img src="/images/self-hosting/examples/add-provider-local-ollama.webp" alt="Add provider dialog with Ollama Cloud selected, model llama3.1, name Home server Ollama and base URL http://ollama:11434/api" />
</Frame>
</Step>
</Steps>
Any server with an OpenAI-compatible API works the same way: choose **OpenAI-compatible** and enter its address, such
as `http://llama-server:8080/v1`.
## Run a private instance
For a personal or team server that nobody else can join:
1. Create your own account (and your team's) first.
2. Add `FLAG_DISABLE_SIGNUPS="true"` to `.env` and run `docker compose up -d`.
New sign-ups are then refused, by email and by social sign-in. People who already have accounts sign in as usual.
To allow sign-in only through your company's identity provider, set up a custom OAuth provider (see
[Single sign-on](/self-hosting/sso)), then add `FLAG_DISABLE_EMAIL_AUTH="true"`. This removes email and password
sign-in, along with password resets.
## Show one resume at your root address
To use your instance as a personal resume site, set `ROOT_RESUME_ID`. Visitors to `/` then see that resume's public
page instead of the home page.
<Steps>
<Step title="Make the resume public">
In the editor, select **Share**, and on the **Link** tab turn on **Public link**. See
[Sharing your resume publicly](/guides/sharing-your-resume-publicly).
</Step>
<Step title="Copy the resume's ID">
The ID is the last part of the editor's address: `https://resume.example.com/builder/<resume-id>`.
</Step>
<Step title="Set the variable and restart">
```bash .env
ROOT_RESUME_ID="<resume-id>"
```
Run `docker compose up -d`.
</Step>
</Steps>
- The resume's own settings still apply: a password still protects it, and **Visitors can download the PDF** still
controls the download button. Its usual `/<username>/<slug>` address keeps working.
- Renaming the address or username doesn't break it; the ID stays the same.
- If the resume is deleted or its public link is turned off, `/` shows an unavailable page, even to you.
- Sign-in and your documents stay at their usual addresses. The root page asks search engines not to index it.
Remove the variable, or leave it empty, and restart to bring back the home page.
## Run several app containers
To run more than one app container, for high availability or Docker Swarm, every container must share state:
- **The same database, `AUTH_SECRET` and `ENCRYPTION_SECRET`.**
- **Redis**, set in `REDIS_URL`, so rate limits, stopping an Assistant reply and live updates work across containers.
- **S3-compatible storage** instead of `/app/data`, so every container sees the same uploads.
- **The same `DEPLOYMENT_NAMESPACE`** (the default, `default`, is fine), or leave it unset everywhere.
Migrations are safe to start in parallel: containers wait for each other, and only one applies changes. A Docker
Swarm service then looks like this:
```yaml compose-swarm.yml
services:
reactive-resume:
image: amruthpillai/reactive-resume:v6
env_file: .env
networks:
- reactive_resume
deploy:
replicas: 2
update_config:
order: start-first
failure_action: rollback
networks:
reactive_resume:
driver: overlay
```
Deploy it with `docker stack deploy -c compose-swarm.yml reactive-resume`, next to your PostgreSQL, Redis and S3
services, and route traffic to it with your proxy.
