[Question] Caddy on windows - dns for .local and .localdomain about caddy HOT 3 CLOSED

1st I need to use the auto_https disable_redirects or else it throws error.

What error?

Is there any plugin or utility which can help to configure this local domains automatically?

I've often thought this would make a great Caddy plugin :) If anyone wants to build it!

But for now I've found that editing a hosts file is not a bad way to go.

from caddy.

There is a good npm package which does this - https://www.npmjs.com/package/hotel

I am not so good yet in developing something on my own like the plugin you said. But yes if this kind of plugin is there, it will boon for developers to test an app locally.
Also, a good use case could be creating MVPs for client, where they can actually mock the website locally. But again as you said, modifying hosts file in windows is also a good option but the problem with it is we cannot configure wildcard domains.
like below

127.0.0.4 *.test.local

something like hotel can be incredible addon (plugin) for local development.

Anyways, thanks again for your wonderful work and quick responses.

Got a different solution, please close the issue if you want. I was able to work with below configuration.

{
	auto_https disable_redirects
}
localhost {
	respond "Caddy server is running "
}

localhost:2016 {
	respond "Hello World !!! !!!"
}

test.localhost {
	respond "testing test.localhost domain"	
}

myserver-127-0-0-6.sslip.io {
	respond "checking sslipio for local sites"
	tls internal
}
