# Elixir Caddy
[](https://github.com/gsmlg-dev/elixir_caddy/actions/workflows/release.yml)
Start `Caddy` reverse proxy server in `Elixir` project.
Manage caddy configuration in `Elixir`.
Add this in `deps` in `mix.exs` to install
```elixir
{:caddy, "~> 2.0.3"}
```
Start in Application supervisor
```elixir
def start(_type, _args) do
children = [
# Start a Caddy by calling: Caddy.start_link([])
{Caddy, caddy_bin: "/path/to/caddy"}
]
opts = [strategy: :one_for_one, name: PhoenixWeb.Supervisor]
Supervisor.start_link(children, opts)
end
```
Start in extra_applications
```elixir
def application do
[
extra_applications: [Caddy.Application]
]
end
```
* Notice
If caddy_bin is not specifiy, Caddy.Server will not start.
## Set `Caddy` binary when needed.
Set `caddy_bin` to the path of Caddy binary file and start `Caddy.Server`.
```elixir
Caddy.Cofnig.set_bin("/usr/bin/caddy")
Caddy.restart_server()
```
This will restart server automatically
```elixir
Caddy.Cofnig.set_bin!("/usr/bin/caddy")
```
