Dev Proxy with Traefik

This project sets up a local development environment with Traefik as a reverse proxy.

What is Traefik?

Traefik is a modern reverse proxy and load balancer that automatically discovers your services and configures itself accordingly. This makes it perfect for containerized environments.

Getting Started

1. Ensure Docker and Docker Compose are installed on your system
2. Start the services:

   docker-compose up -d
   

3. Access the Traefik dashboard at: http://traefik.localhost:8080
4. Access the example app at: http://app.localhost

Configuration

The main configuration is in the docker-compose.yml file and additional Traefik configuration is in the traefik/config/ directory.

To add a new service to be proxied by Traefik:

1. Add a new service to the docker-compose.yml
2. Add the appropriate Traefik labels to the service
3. Restart the containers with docker-compose up -d

Example Labels

labels:
  - "traefik.enable=true"
  - "traefik.http.routers.myservice.rule=Host(`myservice.localhost`)"
  - "traefik.http.routers.myservice.entrypoints=web"
  - "traefik.http.services.myservice.loadbalancer.server.port=8080"
