Proxy setup

It is recommended to run a web proxy behind the frontend and backend for optimized installation. These urls should be routed to the backend: 
/api
/socket
/sitemap.xml
/auth/auth0
/auth/auth0/callback
/auth/logout
All other urls should be routed to the frontend.

​
Example Config File

This is an example configuration for NGINX. It is also located in the Blockscout repo at docker-compose/proxy/default.conf.template In this example the frontend and backend are forwarded to port 80, meaning the new frontend will be available on localhost without needing to specify a port number.

NOTE: For production usage you should add at a minimum the correct server_name (ie eth.blockscout.com) and TLS info (ssl_certificate, ssl_certificate_key, other required variables?) at a minimum.
NOTE: Here the stats service also uses separate port on nginx, but for production usage we recommend a separate hostname for stats. CORS policy for stats should allow the frontend domain.
