Devs, I think it’s about time to seriously fix SSL for Sonarr in Linux (using Mono).
All other Sonarr competitors, and other related software as Couchpotato, Emby… all of them manage to implement it. Even Emby that also uses Mono for Linux version.
Me and lots of users don’t want to create reverse proxies ONLY for Sonarr, when the feature could be correctly implemented.
If you still think that SSL is impossible for Mono (be it any version), we can have a chat with Luke, the main dev of Emby, and question how he did it.
Complementing…
The tutorial seen in http://nzbdrone.readthedocs.io/SSL/ isn’t an acceptable “fix” for people (like me) that depends on Docker images of Sonarr, because we can’t install-and-keep-installed packages as httpcfg (that doesn’t come natively). We use docker to keep untouched the main system (OMV, in my case).
So… please look how other have done it, and please make Sonarr do it, too.
It comes down to the webserver that we’re using for Sonarr which at the time was the only one that was really ready for use when v2 was written. We’ll be re-evaluating the options that are available as we work on v3.
Not really anything to follow up on, we’ll get it done when it gets done, but we can’t (and won’t) commit to when that will be or provide status updates to ongoing work, the entity of the work being done on Sonarr is in our free time.
Also about that… Have you already gave a thought about opening the code as make it open source in GitHub? Because that usually speeds development, as users tend to collaborate with coding suggestions, and you’d had only to approve it.
Seriously, you really think bumping a thread like that is gonna make it happen?
You’ve pretty much annoyed every single developer in the Sonarr team, so they’re not gonna do it unless they really want to.
And any potential contributor probably does the smart thing and use a nginx/apache reverse proxy to provide better security, which is the best approach anyway.
As Markus said, in v3 it might be possible to implement an easier way to configure ssl with mono, but I wouldn’t keep your hopes up. Trust me, you’ll have fewer headaches if you just configure a nice ssl reverse proxy with nginx/apache.
Not really forcing any “make it happen”.
I already do use the reverse proxy. The topic is actually about making Sonarr better and natively more secure.
This thread was only meant to follow the topic of SSL implementation… if it ever happens… and the thing you confused as “bump” is the only thing I can do so the topic doesn’t vanish every 2 months… and leaving me with nothing to follow. Recreating the same topic each 2 months would make any difference? Surely no.
I’m not posting any more topics here… so you won’t be bothered anymore.
farewell
