CaddyManager is a web-based management interface for administering Caddy 2 servers from a single dashboard. It helps you organize multiple servers, edit and validate Caddyfiles, and control access for teams.

Key Features

  • Multi-server dashboard to add, remove, and monitor multiple Caddy 2 instances
  • Caddyfile configuration editor with syntax highlighting, templates, and validation workflows
  • Authentication with JWT-based sessions and role-based access control
  • API key management for programmatic access
  • Audit logging to track user and system actions
  • Dual database support: SQLite (default) or MongoDB
  • Integrated API documentation via Swagger UI
  • Runtime and application metrics endpoints suitable for Prometheus scraping

Use Cases

  • Manage several Caddy reverse proxies across environments from one UI
  • Maintain Caddyfile configurations with safer editing and validation
  • Provide controlled access and traceability for teams operating Caddy infrastructure

Limitations and Considerations

  • The project is in early development; configuration and data backups are strongly recommended before using in production

CaddyManager is a practical option for operators who prefer a graphical interface for Caddy administration while retaining API access, auditability, and flexible storage options. It is suited for homelabs and small-to-medium deployments, with MongoDB support for larger setups.
