### Proxy with Nginx

If you need to reach remotely the API, you can use Nginx as relay. This way, Nginx can add the missing TLS layer to encrypt requests.

Install Nginx package

    apt -y install nginx

Remove default website.

    rm /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/default

Add create new file `/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/alephium` with the following content.

~~~

server {

    server_name _;

    client_max_body_size 2M;

   location / {

	    proxy_set_header Host $host;

	    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;

	    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Port $server_port;

	    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;

	    proxy_pass http://localhost:12973;
