services:
  caddy:
    image: erfianugrah/caddy-cfdns:v1.2-2.4.6
    hostname: caddy
    container_name: caddy
    restart: unless-stopped
    network_mode: host
    privileged: true

    volumes:

    environment:
      - TZ=Asia/Singapore
      - CF_API_TOKEN=${CF_API_TOKEN}
      - EMAIL=${EMAIL}

d. My complete Caddyfile or JSON config:

	cert_issuer acme
	http_port 80
	https_port 443

	debug
	grace_period 5s
	log {
		level debug
		output file /var/log/access.log {
			roll_size 1gb
			roll_keep 5
			roll_keep_for 720h
		}
	}
	servers {
		protocol {
			strict_sni_host
		}
	}
}

3. The problem I’m having:

Setting it up this way is probably wrong, so what I wanna do is to only set headers that match this path that’s matched on this regex:

erfianugrah.com {
	reverse_proxy 172.18.0.2:2368
	header cache-control public, max-age=86400, stale-while-revalidate=86400 {
		path_regexp ^.*\.(jpe?g|png|gif|web)
	}
}

4. Error messages and/or full log output:

5. What I already tried:

erfianugrah.com {
	@image {
		path_regexp ^.*\.(jpe?g|png|gif|web)
	}
	header @image Cache-Control max-age=86400
	reverse_proxy 172.18.0.2:2368
}

6. Links to relevant resources:

erfianugrah.com {
	@image path_regexp image ^.*\.(jpe?g|png|gif|web)$
	header @image {
		Cache-Control "public, max-age=31536000, stale-while-revalidate=31536000"
		Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"
		Access-Control-Max-Age "86400"
	}
	reverse_proxy 172.18.0.2:2368
}

This works, but it just adds another Cache-control header, need to use the replace function I guess?

According to: header (Caddyfile directive) — Caddy Documentation, what I did should work.

**<field>** is the name of the header field. By default, will overwrite any existing field of the same name. Prefix with `+` to add the field instead of replace, or prefix with `-` to remove the field.

But I get this:
image

Yeah if you want to change the value, I think you can do this:

Cache-Control .* "new value"

But also I think you’ll have to turn on the defer option to make sure it runs after proxying (otherwise it will replace “nothing” since there’s nothing in the response before the proxy runs)

Defer solved it, thanks!
