# Traefik reverse proxy with automatic wildcard SSL from cloudflare
|
|
|
|
Create a DNS entry in your cloudflare: ```traefik.YOURDOMAIN.com``` Make sure it is not proxied at first (necessary for creating SSL certificate), you can enable proxy later after everything.
|
|
|
|
Create a docker network called "proxy" using the following command:
|
|
```
|
|
docker network create proxy
|
|
```
|
|
This is the network that traefik and all other containers that need to be automatically configured in traefik should use.
|
|
|
|
Make directories in your homefolder like so:
|
|
- ~/traefik
|
|
- compose.yml
|
|
- data
|
|
- acme.json # make sure to change permissions of this file with ``` chmod 600 acme.json ```
|
|
- config.yml
|
|
- traefik.yml
|
|
|
|
Use mkdir to make the folders and touch to create the json and yml files
|
|
|
|
Basically:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
mkdir traefik
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
cd traefik
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
touch compose.yml
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
mkdir data
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
cd data
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
touch acme.json
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
chmod 600 acme.json
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
touch config.yml
|
|
```
|
|
```
|
|
touch traefik.yml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The contents to put inside those files are given here. Except for acme.json, which will be automatically generated.

## How to generate a hashed password to put in the compose.yml file
|
|
|
|
- First install apache2-utils
|
|
```
|
|
sudo apt update
|
|
sudo apt install apache2-utils
|
|
```
|
|
- Next generate your hashed password with the following command
|
|
```
|
|
echo $(htpasswd -nB USER) | sed -e s/\\$/\\$\\$/g
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- Replace USER with your username
|
|
- Enter a password when it prompts
|
|
- Copy paste the generated hashed password into the compose.yml file
|
|
|
|
## Run
|
|
|
|
Go to the directory with the compose.yml
|
|
Run it with ```docker compose up -d```
|
|
If everything is done right, you will be able to access the traefik dashboard at traefik.YOURDOMAIN.com in a few moments.
