Create our Docker Container
Create a nginx reverse proxy by issuing the following command:
> docker run -d --net host --restart=always -p 80:80 --name proxy -v {CONFIG_DIR}:/etc/nginx/sites-enabled lerenn/nginx-reverse-proxy
This will create a reverse proxy running on the host network. We specify a CONFIG_DIR where we will add our site config files (see below).
Define our Nginx Configuration Files
In the config folder we defined in our docker command we will add a configuration like the following:
mysite.conf
server { listen 80; server_name wiki wiki.jmehan.com; location / { proxy_pass http://192.168.1.60:8090/; proxy_redirect off; proxy_set_header Host $host; proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr; proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for; client_max_body_size 10m; client_body_buffer_size 128k; proxy_connect_timeout 90; proxy_send_timeout 90; proxy_read_timeout 90; proxy_buffer_size 4k; proxy_buffers 4 32k; proxy_busy_buffers_size 64k; proxy_temp_file_write_size 64k; } }
