NPM + Angie Auto Installer

Minimal, repeatable setup for Nginx Proxy Manager (NPM) on Angie (Debian / Ubuntu).
The installer configures Angie, deploys NPM (frontend + backend), fixes common pitfalls (PID tests, logrotate)

Manual Download & Run

# 1) Download
curl -L https://gitea.linuxiarz.pl/gru/npm-angie-auto-install/raw/branch/master/npm_install.py -o install.py 

# 2) Verify (optional)
python3 -m pyflakes install.py || true

# 3) Run
sudo python3 install.py --dark-mode

What the Installer Does

• Creates /etc/nginx -> /etc/angie symlink (idempotent).
• Installs Angie and config templates; provides an nginx wrapper that makes config tests safe:
  • nginx -t automatically uses -g "pid /tmp/angie-test.pid; error_log off;" and strips other -g flags.

---

Options

• IPv6 keep/strip (resolver & conf).
• Theme.Park stylesheet injection (optional).
• Update-only mode (rebuild without reconfiguring Angie).

Check --help in the script for all flags.

Angie Statistics for a Specific vHost (NPM → Edit → Advanced)

To enable Angie statistics for a specific vHost:

1. Go to Hosts → Proxy Hosts → (Edit).
2. Open the Advanced tab.
3. Add a line with a fixed zone name (no variables):

 status_zone my-domain;

4. Save Metrics will be visible at: http://host_ip:82/console/#server_zones

HTTP/3 Announcement (NPM → Edit → Advanced)

listen 443 quic;
add_header Alt-Svc 'h3=":443"; ma=86400' always;

(Optional) Debug header for verification

add_header X-H3-Advertised "1" always;

---

Troubleshooting

1) Frontend build killed (SIGKILL) / high RAM usage

• If memory is tight, add swap:

  sudo fallocate -l 2G /swapfile && sudo chmod 600 /swapfile
  sudo mkswap /swapfile && sudo swapon /swapfile
  

---

Uninstall (manual)

sudo systemctl disable --now npm.service angie.service || true
sudo rm -f /usr/sbin/nginx /usr/local/bin/logrotate-npm || true
sudo rm -f /opt/npm || true
