Docker Services

Some usefull services to manage a server running only container, mostly for developpement purpose

• Traefik: A powerful reverse proxy
• Portainer: A powerful container management tool
• Syncthing: Cloud synchronisation (used mainly for backuping)
• Radicale: A Free and Open-Source CalDAV and CardDAV Server

Installation

This is simple, just :

• git clone the repository
• copy the .env.dist file into .env
• edit the .env file with your own requirements
• and start it with make up

How it works

This configuration create a global docker network on which you will connect all container that needs to be accessible through your reverse proxy.

See the Traefik Documentation on how to configure you container.

By default, portainer and traefik will be accessible throught the .local domain like portainer.local and traefik.local. You can change it with the SERVICES_DOMAIN variable in the .env file.

The wordpress sample

To test the wordpress sample, from the project root, launch:

$> docker-compose -f wordpress.sample/docker-compose.yml -d

Like this, it will use the same .env file as the main configuration.

You will then be able to access wordpress at http://wordpress.local
