In this tutorial i'll show you how you can self-host the Plausible analytics software for free and also how to secure it with an nginx reverse proxy and SSL certificate from Let's Encrypt

Update: Make sure to add an X-Forwarded-For header in your nginx config to ensure Geolocation works properly (update in article above):
location / {
proxy_pass http://plausible:8000;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}

00:00 Intro
00:15 What is Plausible
01:01 What you'll need
01:22 Getting Plausible up and running
04:34 Setting up an nginx reverse proxy
10:26 Getting an SSL certificate with Let's Encrypt
13:33 Configure nginx for secure connections
15:03 Creating an account in Plausible
15:45 Adding analytics to a site
17:16 Disabling new user registration
So I wanted to setup Plausible for a few projects i'm working on and self-hosting seems like a great option.
There are some pretty solid instructions for getting it up and running on your own server but I struggled with getting a secure connection setup with the methods they suggest/provide.
I ended up updating the docker-compose they provide with nginx and certbot so that I could setup a reverse proxy to make sure the connection to Plausible is secure.
Also this felt like a good opportunity to beef up my Docker knowledge and skills so I hope you'll learn something too about working with Docker containers.
