localhost https

@gexijin, thanks for this wonderful project. I was able to follow the detailed instructions for the https tree. I have a few minor suggestions for the documentation; The git clone does not mention the https tree so I think the clone command should be something like git clone -b https https://github.com/gexijin/shinyserver.git. Also I believe that the SSL certificate should be available before the nginx container is build (e.g. step 7 should be before step 5) due to copying of files. Apart from this everything went really smooth!

I am struggling with one thing though. I want to set everything up on a local machine and not a remote server. It seems I need to adjust the nginx config file. I tried to set server_name localhost but unfortunately without success. Not sure if there are any other actions to take, but any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi @RichardHooijmaijers Thanks for the suggestion.
I have no experience deploy this locally.

@gexijin Thanks for the feedback. If it's OK, can we keep this issue open in case someone knows a solution or encounters something similar?
