Link Proxy Add-On

⚠️

This add-on requires Octeth v5.1.1 or newer version.

This add-on will run as a link proxy on a separate server and all incoming email link clicks will be handled by this add-on. The biggest benefit of this link proxy add-on is, it takes care of SSL certificates itself so you don’t have to initiate an SSL certificate for each tracking domain you use on your Octeth installation.

This add-on contains Caddy Server.

ℹ️

This module is provided as an open-source module to the Octeth community. You can take a look at the Github repo and star it here.

Installation

After initiating your Linux VM (this document is written for the Ubuntu Linux distribution), follow these steps on the server with root access.

Update package sources list with the latest versions of the packages int he repositories:

apt update

Install packages:

apt install -y software-properties-common sharutils apt-utils iputils-ping telnet git unzip zip openssl vim wget debconf-utils cron supervisor mysql-client docker.io ufw make

Install Docker Compose and make it executable:

curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/v2.15.1/docker-compose-linux-x86_64" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
docker-compose --version

Create the module directory:

mkdir /opt/oempro-link-proxy
cd /opt/oempro-link-proxy

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/octeth/oempro-link-proxy.git .

Create the configuration file:

cp Caddyfile.example Caddyfile

Edit Caddyfile and configure it according to your needs.

Build and run the system:

make build
make run

That's it! The next step is to setup a domain with A DNS record pointing to your server IP address. For example;

link.mydomain.com A <octeth_link_proxy_server_ip_address>

You can setup your link tracking domains pointing to the domain above using a CNAME DNS record. For example, if you are going to set link.test.com as your link tracking domain, the following DNS record must be set:

link.test.com CNAME link.mydomain.com
