docker-lb

A dynamic front-end Load Balancer simple docker environments

Docker-LB is a Layer-7 load-balancer and web front-end for simple docker environments. It can be used for exposing microservices under different virtual servers and paths.

Usage

Deploy Docker-LB to your public-facing node(s):

docker run -d --name docker-lb \
    -p 80:80 -p 443:443 \
    -e AUTOCERT_EMAIL=admin@mydomain.com \
    -e AUTOCERT_ORGANISATION="My Company" \
    -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
    -v /var/run/docker-lb:/var/run/docker-lb \
    wavesoft/docker-lb:latest

Then you can expose one or more services attached on the same docker network as the docker-lb service by specifying the following labels:

docker run \
    -l publish.domain=mydomain.com \
    -l publish.port=8080 \
    -l publish.ssl=on \
    ...
