About this docker-compose

This docker-compose files can be used for production purpose.

This is the same architecture as Production but without NGINX as a reverse proxy. It is suited for environment which already expose the host behind a reverse proxy handling HTTPS.

The relevant environment variables are:

• NBITCOIN_NETWORK: the blockchain identifier used by NBitcoin (eg., regtest, testnet, mainnet)
• BTCPAY_HOST: the external url used to access your server from internet. This domain name must point to this machine.
• BTCPAY_PROTOCOL: the protocol used to access this website from the internet (valid values: http and https, default: https)
• LIGHTNING_ALIAS: Optional, if using the integrated lightning feature, customize the alias of your nodes

The ports mapped on the host are:

1. 80 for the website
2. 9735 for the bitcoin lightning network node (if used)
3. 9736 for the litecoin lightning network node (if used)

Note that you need to set BTCPAY_PROTOCOL=http if you want to do some tests locally without https.

If you forget, you will get an error HTTP 400 when trying to register a new account on the website.
