To configure domain access for a Spring Boot project, the following steps need to be taken:

  1. Point the domain name to the IP address of the server at the domain name registrar. Log into the management interface provided by the domain name registrar, locate the domain name resolution settings, add an A record, and point the domain name to the IP address of the server. This way, when users access the domain name, the request will be routed to the server.
  2. Install and configure Nginx on the server. Nginx is a high-performance web server that can be used to reverse proxy requests to a Spring Boot project. After installing Nginx, you will need to configure Nginx’s virtual hosts and specify the domain name and port number.
  3. In the virtual host configuration of Nginx, proxy requests to the port of the Spring Boot project. Locate the Nginx configuration file (usually nginx.conf), find the virtual host configuration, and add the following configuration.
location / {
    proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;  // 将请求代理到Spring Boot项目的端口号
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
}

In this way, when users access the domain name, the request will be received by Nginx and then forwarded to the port of the Spring Boot project.

  1. Restart the Nginx server to apply the configuration changes.

Now, the Spring Boot project can be accessed via the domain name. It may take a few minutes for the changes to take effect depending on the DNS resolution time of the domain name service provider.
