Docker-Compose-Backup VS nginx-proxy

I wrote this to do the export automatically if it interests anyone : https://github.com/danmed/Docker-Compose-Backup

As a starting point, you could use https://github.com/danmed/Docker-Compose-Backup to pull backup all the containers you have as compose files. I've found the script generates a lot of extra noise in the files (might be to do with my environment, I'm doing some complex stuff), but it's a good starting point.

I used this https://github.com/danmed/Docker-Compose-Backup

I have an express API that runs on EC2 and I am using nginx-proxy

If Traefik is not your thing Im happily using https://github.com/nginx-proxy/nginx-proxy and sslip.io for local docker compose development.

And then even plain nginx to proxy to non docker services...

(And ipv6 for really short urls. E.g. `example.com.--1.sslip.io` etc)

I wanted to share with you an exciting new tool that simplifies the process of interacting with the NGINX Proxy Manager API. It's a TypeScript tool that generates API requests based on environment variables within a Docker container. This tool is heavy influenced by the https://github.com/nginx-proxy/nginx-proxy but it works with npm.

I use an automatically configuring reverse proxy - there's several to choose from, but the nginx-docker image is really nice, and comes with another image to do automatic SSL with certbot (if you wanted to host things externally).

Docker runs on the 3B+ so you could use this [Github] or the one I have deployed here [NGINX Proxy Manager site] amongst others.

- and this

docker compose + wildcard dns + reverse proxy that covers all widecard subdomains + https://github.com/nginx-proxy/nginx-proxy (not to be confused with nginx itself) then setup a container for each app and set a subdomain for it, you can add ssl if you have a public domain or use self signed certs (but you need to distribute it to all machines and devices)

setting up letsencrypt with nginx-proxy and acme-companion

We use the nginx-proxy docker image. Auto-configuring reverse proxy with support for certbot. Never been easier - just put your domain and certbot details in your container env, and it does the rest.

I just use the nginx-proxy image, makes it all super easy, auto-configuring, and all domain/cert information is stored against the project rather than the proxy.
