docker-traefik-socket-proxy

Simple docker-compose.yml template to run Traefik with a Docker socket proxy and a whoami service with Docker.

Features:

• Use nginx as docker-socket-proxy, only allowing relevant GET requests to Docker socket
• Traefik is listening on ports 80 (http) and 443 (https)
• All http requests will be redirected to secure https requests
• Docker services with label traefik.enable=true will automatically be discovered by Traefik
• Letsencrypt will automatically generate TLS/SSL certificates for all domains in Host()
• Traefik log (level=INFO) and access log are enabled to container stdout/stderr
• Traefik dashboard is enabled at https://traefik.example.com/dashboard/ with user/pass test/test

Deployment:

• Adapt all domain names in Host()
• Adapt acme.email
• Adapt dashboard username/password
• For production: write logs files to mounted folder on host
• Run docker compose up -d

Problems:

• When using Traefik v2, remove line entrypoints.websecure.asDefault=true
