Traefik and external services

Comments

  I use the Traefik file provider for this.

  doc.traefik.io/traefik/providers/file/

  It picks up all my .yml configs in the watched folder which define the routers and services external to Docker.

    Would the file provider configs live on the Traefik server, or would they need to be on the external service. Reading through this, and looking at the example configuration files doesn’t really seem to point that out. Sorry for the noob questions.

    Trying to understand this, but the way the documentation is written is different than I am used to.

    Thank you!

      No worries for the question. It’s not terribly intuitive.

      The configs live on the Traefik server. In my static traefik.yml config I have the following providers section, which adds the file provider in addition to the docker provider which you likely already have:

      providers:
        docker:
          endpoint: "unix:///var/run/docker.sock"
          exposedByDefault: false
        file:
          directory: /config
          watch: true
      

      And in the /config folder mapped into the Traefik container I have several files for services external to docker. You can combine them or keep them separate since the watch: true setting tells it to read in all files (and it’s near instant when you create them, no need to restart Traefik).

      Here is my homeassistant.yml in that folder (I have a separate VM running HASS outside of Docker/Traefik):

      http:
        routers:
          homeassistant-rtr:
            entryPoints:
            - https
            service: homeassistant-svc
            rule: "Host(`home.example.com`)"
            tls:
              certResolver: examplecom-dns
      
        services:
          homeassistant-svc:
            loadBalancer:
              servers:
                - url: "http://hass1.internal.local:8123"
      

      Hope this helps!
