Nginx behind Apache reverse proxy with access restrictions
I have a couple of sites that are sitting behind Basic HTTP Authentication restrictions. They're simple applications that don't need full-blown built-in access control and are served over HTTPS, so Basic HTTP Auth serves just fine as a restriction control.
GitLab CE, Docker, PHP7.1, Laravel 5.5, SQLite CI pipeline
I've been using my self-hosted GitLab instance for my git repos and pipelines for 5 or so years now, but things have changed and I've decided I no longer want to run my self-hosted instance any more. It's purely for hobby/self projects and only accessed by myself, however, one bonus of this is that I also self-host a dockerised GitLab runner that performed all of my CI/CD duties, including the deployment stage, which is the important part.
