In this tutorial we will be setting up Traefik v2 as our reverse proxy with port 80 and 443 enabled, and then hook up a example application behind the application load balancer, and route incoiming requests via host headers.
What is Traefik Traefik is a modern HTTP reverse proxy and load balancer that makes deploying microservices super easy by making use of docker labels to route your traffic based on host headers, path prefixes etc....
In this tutorial, I will demonstrate how to setup a Secure VPN using Wireguard on Docker using docker-compose and then we will use a Windows PC to connect to our Wireguard VPN using the Wireguard Client to access our Private Network in a secure way.
Wireguard Configuration The following configurations should be changed, depending on your setup:
TZ - timezone SERVERURL - this will be set where your client will connect to SERVERPORT - this will be set in your client config (the listen port is hardcoded to 51820) PEERDNS - this is the dns server that will be set in the client config (I use PiHole for DNS to block ads) PEERS - this is used to create configs for your clients INTERNAL_SUBNET - this is optional, but this is the subnet the connected clients will use Start the Wireguard Server The content of our docker-compose....
In this tutorial we will be building a go based application using docker and make use of multi-stage builds so that we can optimize our storage size of our image. The source code can be found on github
Go Application Our go application is a simple web application that returns the hostname. This can also be a useful application if you run it with orchestrators such as Kubernetes or Docker Swarm, when using more than 1 replicas on multiple nodes, as when the application is scaled each container will respond with different hostnames....
In this tutorial we will demonstrate how to run local aws lambda functions with the help of docker and running it locally on a container.
Dockerfile In our Dockerfile:
FROMpublic.ecr.aws/lambda/python:3.8COPY lambda_function.py ${LAMBDA_TASK_ROOT}/COPY requirements.txt /opt/requirements.txtRUN pip install -r /opt/requirements.txt -t ${LAMBDA_TASK_ROOT}/CMD [ "lambda_function.handler" ]Lambda Function Our application code, residing in our lambda_function.py:
import json import requests def handler(event, context): body = { "message": "this is a message", "input": event } response = { "statusCode": 200, "body": json....
In this tutorial I will demonstrate how to build slim docker images using multistage docker builds, where you can save up to 800MB of disk space per image.
About We will use multistage docker builds from a alpine image as our build image to get the dependencies, build the go binary and use our scratch image to place the built binary onto our target image to have small docker images....
