HashNet Container for a reverse proxy web server

This Docker image generates a high-performance nginx server to use as a reverse-proxy web server for hosted web-applications.

This container dynamically generates configs using docker-gen for other virtual host web containers.

Installation

1. Configure image

• Configure image in the settings.sh file.
• If you have static sites you want to add, you can add their nginx .config's in fs/etc/nginx/conf.d/. Do not name your config dynamic.conf as that is what is used by docker-gen.

2. Build the image

Run the build.sh file to generate the Docker image hnc-web.

2. Deploy the container

To spawn a temporary container run test.sh. You can manually start the services via executing /srv/launch.sh.

To deploy a dedicated container run deploy.sh. The dedicated container will also create a mounted volume which is mounted at /etc/nginx in the container. This volume can be useful if you need to manually backup/restore certs from the /etc/nginx/certs directory in the container.

From here on you can use docker start hnc-web and docker stop hnc-web to control the container.
