SSL Configuration

HomeDock OS automatically leverages SSL certificates stored in the /DATA/SSLCerts directory to establish secure HTTPS connections across all applications and services.

Cloud Instances

For Cloud Instance users, SSL certificates are issued automatically upon subscription and are seamlessly reissued whenever the hostname is changed. This automatic handling ensures a smooth, hassle-free HTTPS setup without any manual intervention.

Self-Hosted

For Self-Hosted users, it’s essential to configure a renewal hook that transfers newly renewed SSL certificates to the /DATA/SSLCerts directory. This ensures uninterrupted HTTPS support, as HomeDock OS will detect and apply any updated certificates in this directory automatically.

Required File Structure

The SSL certificate files in /DATA/SSLCerts must follow the exact naming conventions below to be recognized by HomeDock OS:

  • Directory/DATA/SSLCerts
    • cert.pem
    • chain.pem
    • fullchain.pem
    • privkey.pem
