🛠️ This BASH script enables the management of through its API.
🔑 Automatically generates and manages tokens, ensuring their validity, so you don't have to worry about token expiration.
⚙️ Provides functionalities such as creating and deleting proxy hosts, managing users, displaying configurations, creating BACKUPS, and more.
Ce script permet de gérer Nginx Proxy Manager via l'API. Il fournit des fonctionnalités telles que la création de hosts proxy, la gestion des utilisateurs, et l'affichage des configurations avec creation de BACKUP ! La fonction RESTORE n'est pas encore terminée.
And of course the excellent NPM ()
Required basic dependencies.
The script will automatically check if they are installed and will download them if necessary:
curljq
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Erreur32/nginx-proxy-manager-API/main/nginx_proxy_manager_cli.sh
chmod +x nginx_proxy_manager_cli.sh
# Check script
./nginx_proxy_manager_cli.sh --info
Note
With the new V2.0.0, some command arguments have been changed to be simpler, and need to set BASE_DIR variable to store Tokens and Backups.
Important
(Optional) You can create a configuration file named nginx_proxy_manager_cli.conf with these 4 required variables.
To ensure the script is functional, edit these 4 variables (mandatory).
## Nginx proxy IP address (your Nginx IP)
NGINX_IP="127.0.0.1"
## Existing user (user and password) on NPM
API_USER="existingUser@mail.com"
API_PASS="password"
# Path to store .txt files and Backups
BASE_DIR="/path/nginx_proxy_script/data"
./nginx_proxy_manager_cli.sh [OPTIONS]
./nginx_proxy_manager_cli.sh --info

How to activate SSL ?
By following these steps, you can enable SSL for your proxy host for the first time using Let's Encrypt.
List all Host in one command and show ´id´ , ´status´ and ´SSL´ status:
./nginx_proxy_manager_cli.sh --host-list
👉 List of proxy hosts (simple)
ID Domain Status SSL
1 toto.fun enabled ✘
2 titi.fun disable ✅
3 tutu.fun enabled ✅
Enable SSL for the Host:
Assuming the host ID is 1, you would enable SSL for the host as follows:
./nginx_proxy_manager_cli.sh --host-ssl-enable 1
SSl is enable successfully, check again with --host-list
./nginx_proxy_manager_cli.sh --host-list
👉 List of proxy hosts (simple)
ID Domain Status SSL
1 toto.fun enabled ✅
2 titi.fun disable ✅
3 tutu.fun enabled ✅
Et Voilà.
Other Exemple command:
Host proxy info command --host-show id
./nginx_proxy_manager_cli_.sh --host-show 1
✅ Nginx url: http://127.0.0.1:81/api
✅ The token is valid. Expiry: 2025-07-12T08:14:58.521Z

📦 Backup Summary:
- Number of users backed up: 1
- Number of proxy hosts backed up: 31
- Total number of backup files: 42
- add setting for ADVANCED configuration in npm
location / { ... } - Add documentation on certain functions
- ADD: a configuration function for Custom Locations
- Backup all settings from NPM
- Domain TLS check validity
- Better Error Handeling
- Restore Function need to be optimized
