# nginx simple semi-automated reverse proxy
Simply mount your volume or a directory as `/etc/nginx/conf.d` to the container,
it will automatically detect the differences in there and load-up the new configuration!
To build and run the image:
```
docker build --ulimit nofile=1024:1024 -t andrey01/nginx .
docker run --rm -ti --name nginx -p 80:80 -p 443:443 andrey01/nginx
```
> Smaller nofile `ulimit -n` is needed when running the grsecurity patched kernel, otherwise things may go terribly slow.
> You may consider using `--default-ulimit "nofile=1024:2048"` argument to a docker daemon.
**docker-compose.yml** file example
```
version '2'
networks:
backend: {}
frontend: {}
services:
nginx:
image: andrey01/nginx
networks:
- backend
- frontend
volumes:
- /srv/letsencrypt:/etc/letsencrypt:ro
- /srv/nginx:/etc/nginx/conf.d:ro
ports:
- 80:80
- 443:443
restart: always
```
Then you can add some configuration to the `/home/docker/configs/nginx` directory,
for example you may add the following config:
**webmail.conf** file example
```
server {
listen 80;
server_name webmail.mydomain.com;
return 301 https://$host$request_uri;
}
server {
listen 443 ssl http2;
server_name webmail.mydomain.com;
ssl on;
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/webmail.mydomain.com/fullchain.pem;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/webmail.mydomain.com/privkey.pem;
# enable HSTS (HTTP Strict Transport Security) to avoid SSL stripping
add_header Strict-Transport-Security "max-age=15768000; includeSubdomains" always;
# Built-in Docker's DNS server
resolver 127.0.0.11:53 ipv6=off valid=10s;
set $upstream_endpoint http://webmail:8080;
location / {
client_max_body_size 100M;
proxy_pass $upstream_endpoint;
proxy_redirect off;
proxy_buffering off;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
}
}
```
You can have your `webmail` service running in the `backend` network,
of which the nginx will take care of and pass it to the frontend.
