About The Project

The goal is to be able to run you website locally using HTTPS. We use traefik and a self-signed certificate to achieve this. By just assigning labels to your docker containers, you can have a local proxy that will route your requests to the correct container.

Usage

Once this project is running, you can then start your other projects by adding to your compose.yaml file some labels:

/!\ Be careful to only use a third level domain, like my-project-name.dev.localhost and not api.my-project-name.dev.localhost or my-project-name.localhost

    labels:
      - "traefik.enable=true"
      - "traefik.http.routers.my-project-name.rule=Host(`my-project-name.dev.localhost`)"
      - "traefik.http.routers.my-project-name.entrypoints=websecure"
      - "traefik.http.routers.my-project-name.tls=true"
