+
+## `http` Setup
+
+In this example, the port used is `23231`, but it can be anything.
+Open `/var/lib/soft-serve/data/config.yaml` and make sure the `http` section looks like this:
+
+```
+# The HTTP server configuration.
+http:
+  # The address on which the HTTP server will listen.
+  listen_addr: ":23232"
+
+  # The path to the TLS private key.
+  tls_key_path: ""
+
+  # The path to the TLS certificate.
+  tls_cert_path: ""
+
+  # The public URL of the HTTP server.
+  # This is the address that will be used to clone repositories.
+  # Make sure to use https:// if you are using TLS.
+  public_url: "http://localhost:23232"
+
+```
+
+Restart the `soft-serve` service, then check it's working by cloning from localhost:
+
+```bash
+git clone http://localhost:23232/${some_repo}.git
+```
+
+## `https` Setup
+
+Put this file at `/etc/nginx/sites-enabled/$DOMAIN.tld`, then set up standard certificates with [nginx](../networking/website/nginx.md).
+
+(replace `${DOMAIN_NAME}` with your domain's name).
+
+```
+ server {
+     listen 80;
+     server_name ${DOMAIN_NAME};
+                                                                                        
+     location / {
+         proxy_pass http://localhost:23232;
+         proxy_set_header Host $host;
+         proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
+         proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
+     }
+                                                                                        
+     return 301 https://$server_name$request_uri;
+}
+                                                                                        
+ server {
+     listen 443 ssl;
+     server_name ${DOMAIN_NAME};
+
+     location / {
+         proxy_pass http://localhost:23232;
+         proxy_set_header Host $host;
+         proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
+         proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
+     }
+}
