Ideas for Arc XP

Developers can achieve localhost HTTPS by using Caddy: https://caddyserver.com/

Caddyfile

# PB Fusion site proxy
arc-local.theglobeandmail.com {
	# Transport Layer Security for HTTPS
	tls ./dev/certs/arc-local.theglobeandmail.com.pem ./dev/certs/arc-local.theglobeandmail.com-key.pem
	# Reverse Proxy from HTTP on port 8080 to HTTPS on port 80
	reverse_proxy 127.0.0.1:8080 {
		header_up Host "localhost"
		header_up X-Real-IP {remote}
		header_up X-Forwarded-Host "localhost"
		header_up X-Forwarded-Server "localhost"
		header_up X-Forwarded-Port {port}
	}
}

/privates/etc/hosts

127.0.0.1 arc-local.theglobeandmail.com

.env

# Not an ArcXP system env variable but works here vs. not when in localhost.js. This port is used by Caddy.
PORT=8080
