Update Caddy Script to Include Options for Additional Modules

[PacketPalantir]

Hi!
Some non-standard modules like dns.providers.cloudflare require xcaddy. It would be cool if modules like that could be chosen from the install script prompt. Maybe not every non-standard module, but maybe some that seem more commonly used than others?

+1 after updating my installation I had to re-add a module and took a bit to figure out why Caddy wasn't starting.

Done for new Installs.

For Older Installs - need to add manually.
Increase HDD to min 4GB. CPU and RAM optionally, because Go need some ressources.

Go:

  cd /opt
  set +o pipefail
  GOLANG=$(curl -s https://go.dev/dl/ | grep -o "go.*\linux-amd64.tar.gz" | head -n 1)
  wget -q https://golang.org/dl/$GOLANG
  tar -xzf $GOLANG -C /usr/local
  ln -s /usr/local/go/bin/go /usr/local/bin/go
  set -o pipefail
  rm -rf /opt/go*

xCaddy:

cd /opt
  RELEASE=$(curl -s https://api.github.com/repos/caddyserver/xcaddy/releases/latest | grep "tag_name" | awk '{print substr($2, 2, length($2)-3) }')
  wget -q https://github.com/caddyserver/xcaddy/releases/download/${RELEASE}/xcaddy_${RELEASE:1}_linux_amd64.deb
  dpkg -i xcaddy_${RELEASE:1}_linux_amd64.deb
  rm -rf /opt/xcaddy*
  xcaddy build

Hey, doesn't seem like xcaddy is installing any modules on my end.
Running this , xcaddy build --with github.com/caddy-dns/cloudflare
But when you check caddy list-modules its not being installed.

Just for me?

I solved this by using this guide,

sorry, maybe I did overlook some info.
what is proper way to add xcaddy in existing LXC ?
I did run update from console and it did say "Updated Caddy LXC" but xcaddy is not installed.
thanks
