Automated Nginx reverse Proxy for Docker Webservices

This image attaches to the docker event queue and creates/removes proxy settings in the contained nginx.

Starting the container

The container is started as: docker run --name auto_proxy -d -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -p 80:80 docker_nginx_auto_proxy The socket must be handed in so the container can get the events.

How it works

Containers that should be proxied neet meta information in the environment variable PROXY_DATA available. This variable must be of the following format: PROXY_DATA=server_name:test.com,port:80

The following options are possible:

  • server_name(required) the name of the virtual host
  • port(optional, defaults to 80) the port on the target container
  • ip(optional, defaults to listen on all IPs) the IP on which the proxy should listen.
  • location(optional) if the proxied web application is not running on the /-path
