Static configuration (TOML syntax)

Slide 17

Slide 17 text

Basic configuration - Entrypoints [entryPoints] [entryPoints.http] address = ":80" [entryPoints.http.redirect] entryPoint = "https" [entryPoints.https] address = ":443" [entryPoints.https.tls] [[entryPoints.https.tls.certificates]] certFile = "https/snitest.com.cert" keyFile = "https/snitest.com.key" [[entryPoints.https.tls.certificates]] certFile = "https/snitest.org.cert" keyFile = "https/snitest.org.key"

Slide 18

Basic configuration - Frontends [frontends] [frontends.frontend1] backend = "backend2" [frontends.frontend1.routes.test_1] rule = "Host:test.localhost,test2.localhost" [frontends.frontend2] backend = "backend1" [frontends.frontend2.routes.test_1] rule = "HostRegexp:localhost,{subdomain:[a-z]+}.localhost" [frontends.frontend3] backend = "backend2" [frontends.frontend3.routes.test_1] rule = "Host:test3.localhost;Path:/test"

Basic configuration - Backends [backends] [backends.backend1] [backends.backend1.servers.server1] url = "http://172.17.0.2:80" weight = 10 [backends.backend1.servers.server2] url = "http://172.17.0.3:80" weight = 1 [backends.backend2] [backends.backend2.servers.server1] url = "https://172.17.0.4:443" weight = 1 [backends.backend2.servers.server2] url = "https://172.17.0.5:443" weight = 2

Dynamic configuration Let magic happen

Slide 22

Slide 22 text

Backends real-time discovery ● Docker / Docker Swarm ● Kubernetes / Rancher ● Mesos / Marathon ● Consul Catalog ● Eureka (Netflix) ● Amazon ECS ● Azure Service Fabric ● Rest API ● Plain File

Docker backend # Enable Docker Provider. [docker] # Docker server endpoint. Can be a tcp or a unix socket endpoint. # # Required # endpoint = "unix:///var/run/docker.sock" # Default base domain used for the frontend rules. # # Required # domain = "docker.localhost"

Shared configuration (cluster mode) K/V store: Consul / Etcd / Zookeeper / BoltDB / DynamoDB

Slide 25

Traefik storeconfig -c traefik.toml

Slide 26

traefik --consul --consul.endpoint=127.0.0.1:8500 Cluster mode enabled

Real-life example OwnCloud + Docker-compose + Letsencrypt https://github.com/gionn/owncloud-traefik-example

Slide 28

Slide 28 text

Real-life example - traefik.toml logLevel = "INFO" defaultEntryPoints = ["https","http"] [entryPoints] [entryPoints.http] address = ":80" [entryPoints.http.redirect] entryPoint = "https" [entryPoints.https] address = ":443" [entryPoints.https.tls] [acme] email = "[email protected]" storage = "acme.json" entryPoint = "https" onHostRule = true [acme.httpChallenge] entryPoint = "http"

Slide 29

Slide 29 text

Real-life example - docker-compose.yml services: reverse-proxy: image: traefik command: --api --docker -c /etc/traefik.toml ports: - "80:80" - "443:443" - "8080:8080" # The Web UI (enabled by --api) volumes: - /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock # Listen on Docker events - ./traefik.toml:/etc/traefik.toml - ./acme.json:/acme.json
