ARM64 Armbian Collabora & Nextcloud -> nginx/caddy proxy for Local Domains on NanoPi R4S

[Superuser]

Hi Everybody,

I'm trying to set up Nextcloud with Collabora Office on NanoPi R4S running Armbian, but I'm having trouble configuring the reverse proxy (nginx/Caddy) for HTTPS with local domains.
Current Setup:

    Running via docker-compose.yml (shown below)

    Without HTTPS, everything works: Collabora can open documents in Nextcloud's web UI

    With HTTPS enabled, Collabora integration breaks

    Added to /etc/hosts:

    127.0.0.1 nextcloud.lan collabora.nextcloud.lan

What I Need:

    HTTPS configuration for both services

    Reverse proxy to local domains:

        Nextcloud: https://nextcloud.lan

        Collabora: https://collabora.nextcloud.lan

My docker-compose.yml (HTTP-only version):

networks:
  network:
    driver: bridge
 

volumes:
  mariadb_config:
  mariadb_data:
  nextcloud_config:
  nextcloud_data:

services:
  collabora:
    image: collabora/code
    restart: unless-stopped
    container_name: collabora
    hostname: collabora
    domainname: collabora.nextcloud.lan
    networks:
      - network
    ports:
      - "9980:9980"
    cap_add:
      - MKNOD

  nextcloud_db:
    image: linuxserver/mariadb
    restart: unless-stopped
    container_name: nextcloud_db
    hostname: nextcloud_db
    networks:
      - network
    volumes:
      - mariadb_config:/config
      - mariadb_data:/data
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=UTC
      - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=nextcloud
      - MYSQL_DATABASE=nextcloud_db
      - MYSQL_USER=nextcloud
      - MYSQL_PASSWORD=nextcloud

  nextcloud:
    image: linuxserver/nextcloud
    restart: unless-stopped
    depends_on:
      - nextcloud_db
      - collabora
    container_name: nextcloud
    hostname: nextcloud
    domainname: nextcloud.lan
    networks:
      - network
    ports:
      - "8080:80"
    volumes:
      - nextcloud_config:/config
      - nextcloud_data:/data
    environment:
      - PUID=1000
      - PGID=1000
      - TZ=UTC
      - NEXTCLOUD_UPLOAD_LIMIT=16G
      - NEXTCLOUD_MAX_TIME=3600
      - NEXTCLOUD_MEMORY_LIMIT=3G
      - SKIP_DOMAIN_VALIDATION=true
      - NEXTCLOUD_TRUSTED_DOMAINS=nextcloud.lan

Key Questions:

    How should I modify the docker-compose.yml to:

        Enable HTTPS for both services?

        Properly configure the reverse proxy for the local domains?

        Set up valid SSL certificates for *.lan domains?

    For Collabora:

        What extra_params or environment variables are needed for HTTPS?

        How to configure Nextcloud's config.php for the Collabora HTTPS endpoint?

I'd prefer a solution using Caddy if possible, as it's simpler for automatic HTTPS. Any working configuration examples would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance for your help!
