Hi Tomas.
That’s the good part about docker and containers in general, they are working isolated from each other and Nginx config for onlyoffice won’t interfere with your config for nextcloud. I suggest you take a look at portainer, that’s a great web UI for managing docker containers and it will make things A LOT easier if you are learning.
Back to your question, I am using a local DNS server and self-signed certificates but you can just make valid certs with letsencrypt without using docker.
So this is my docker-compose file (stacks in portainer), just change usernames and passwords

To understand the basics of docker I would strongly recommend you youtube channel Digital Life and read the official documentation.
So basically this docker-compose file will deploy five containers. The nextcloud fpm, mariadb, onlyoffice, nginx web server, and redis.
As you can see all my volumes are stored at /home/docker/app_name/service_name and I do it like that just because I feel like it, you can store it wherever you want.
I mapped php.ini from my host system to the NC container to overwrite some settings that allow me to upload bigger files and allow PHP to use more ram.
php.ini:
upload_max_filesize=1G
post_max_size=1G
memory_limit=2G
Next, you can see a few folders/files are mapped to nginx container.
File nginx-ssl.conf is mapped to nginx container as nginx.conf and it contains the following:
user www-data;
worker_processes 1;
error_log /var/log/nginx/error.log warn;
pid /var/run/nginx.pid;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
http {
upstream backend {
server app-server:9000;
}
include /etc/nginx/mime.types;
default_type application/octet-stream;
log_format main '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
'$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '
'"$http_user_agent" "$http_x_forwarded_for"';
access_log /var/log/nginx/access.log main;
sendfile on;
#tcp_nopush on;
keepalive_timeout 65;
map $http_host $this_host {
"" $host;
default $http_host;
}
map $http_x_forwarded_proto $the_scheme {
default $http_x_forwarded_proto;
"" $scheme;
}
map $http_x_forwarded_host $the_host {
default $http_x_forwarded_host;
"" $this_host;
}
server {
listen 80;
location / {
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}
}
server {
listen 80;
server_name nginx-server;
include /etc/nginx/common.conf;
}
server {
listen 443 ssl;
ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/certs/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/certs/privkey.pem;
ssl_protocols TLSv1 TLSv1.1 TLSv1.2;
ssl_ciphers HIGH:!aNULL:!MD5;
include /etc/nginx/common.conf;
}
}
As you noticed, SSL certificates are stored at /etc/nginx/certs/ inside the container, but at the host system they will be at /home/docker/nextcloud/config/certs
And the last one, nginx-ssl.conf is pointing to /etc/nginx/common.conf, which is also mapped to container. It contents:

After deploying all containers you can run set_configuration.sh from the git repository mentioned above. Note that bash script requires container names to be like it docker-compose, so if you would like to rename your containers you should also make changes to the scrips.
And that’s it, you should be able to use your services after that.
