Why
This is the HTTP/3 portion of #5803, split out following the maintainer's request. It targets
developindependently and does not include gzip controls or configurable cache lifetimes. Those portions are in #5816 (gzip) and #5815 (caching).Related to #1550 and #2834. As noted in the original PR, #5587 also proposes HTTP/3 support; this preserves the per-host controls and UDP-port conflict handling from #5803 in a separate reviewable PR.
What Changed
Alt-Svconly for eligible HTTPS responses, including managed custom and cached locations.NPM_PUBLIC_HTTPS_PORTfor installations publishing HTTPS on a different external port.developfix for failed.conf.errfiles.HTTP/3 is disabled by default, and existing API clients can omit the new
http3_supportfield. Existing gzip and fixed asset-cache behavior are retained. HTTPS requires both TCP and UDP port publication; custom raw Nginx configuration remains the user's responsibility as documented.Validation
Alt-Svc, an external port of 8443, regular/custom/cached locations, and opt-out behavior.The runtime checks used the project's
nginxproxymanager/nginx-full:certbot-nodeimage with Node 22 and its HTTP/3-enabled Nginx build.A temporary combined checkout of all three split changes also passed 13 backend tests, 13 frontend tests, the frontend build, all 22 migrations, and the Nginx runtime checks after resolving the shared insertion points.
