#docker-nginx-proxy-letsencrypt

Ready to use docker-compose configuration to set up nginx-proxy/docker-gen with nginx-proxy/acme-companion.

Essentially this is the acme-companion three container setup ready to use with docker-compose.

Please note: I maintain this only for my own use. I have this setup running on multiple servers, and it fits my need. It might or might not fit yours, but feel free to use and change it.

#Setup on host

Configure network:

docker network create -d bridge nginx-proxy

Start nginx proxy services:

docker compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d

#Configure your project to be exposed via nginx proxy

Given you have a service foo which you want to expose via the nginx proxy configure it to use the nginx-proxy network and set the environment variables VIRTUAL_HOST, VIRTUAL_PORT, VIRTUAL_NETWORK, LETSENCRYPT_HOST and LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL.

A docker-compose.yml file for this service could look like this:

services:
  foo:
    image: foo:latest
    networks:
      - proxy-tier
    environment:
      - VIRTUAL_HOST=foo.example.com
      - VIRTUAL_PORT=80
      - VIRTUAL_NETWORK=proxy-tier
      - LETSENCRYPT_HOST=foo.example.com
      - LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL=admin@foo.example.com

networks:
  proxy-tier:
    name: nginx-proxy
    external: true
