Exposing Ports

Some ports on the EasyHAProxy container and in the firewall are required to be open. However, you don't need to expose the other container ports because EasyHAProxy will handle that.

  • The ports 80 and 443.
  • If you enable the HAProxy statistics, you must also expose the port defined in HAPROXY_STATS_PORT environment variable (default 1936). Be aware that statistics are enabled by default with no password.
  • Every port defined in easyhaproxy.[definitions].port also should be exposed.

e.g.

docker run \
/* other parameters */
-p 80:80 \
-p 443:443 \
-p 1936:1936 \
-d byjg/easy-haproxy

Mapping Docker Volume

The docker volume or a way to call the API needs to pass to the EasyHAProxy container.

docker run \
/* other parameters */
-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
-d byjg/easy-haproxy

Mapping custom .cfg files

You can concatenate valid HAProxy .cfg files to the dynamically generated haproxy.cfg by mapping the folder /etc/haproxy/conf.d.

docker run \
/* other parameters */
-v /your/local/conf.d:/etc/haproxy/conf.d \
-d byjg/easy-haproxy

Setting Custom Errors

If enabled, map the volume : /etc/haproxy/errors-custom/ to your container and put a file named ERROR_NUMBER.http where ERROR_NUMBER is the HTTP error code (e.g., 503.http)
