Docker Setup with Traefik Reverse Proxy & Self-Signed SSL

✅ Traefik Reverse Proxy with self-signed SSL for local access
✅ Pi-hole for ad-blocking and DNS resolution
✅ Uptime Kuma for monitoring uptime and services
✅ Nextcloud as a private cloud solution
✅ Jellyfin as a self-hosted media server
✅ Heimdall for a centralized service dashboard
✅ Portainer for managing Docker containers easily
✅ MariaDB & phpMyAdmin for database management

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
sudo apt install -y docker.io docker-compose
sudo systemctl enable --now docker

sudo yum install -y docker
sudo systemctl enable --now docker

docker --version
docker-compose --version

Portainer provides a GUI for managing Docker containers. Install it with:

docker volume create portainer_data
docker run -d --name=portainer --restart=always \
  -p 9443:9443 -p 8000:8000 \
  -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
  -v portainer_data:/data \
  portainer/portainer-ce:latest

📌 Access Portainer UI:
➡️ https://<your-server-ip>:9443

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/docker-traefik-setup.git
cd docker-traefik-setup

Before running Traefik, generate a self-signed SSL certificate:

mkdir -p certs
openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout certs/key.pem -out certs/cert.pem -days 365 -nodes -subj "/CN=YOUR_SERVER_IP"

To access services via friendly domain names (pihole.local, uptime.local, etc.), add entries to /etc/hosts:

sudo nano /etc/hosts

Add the following lines:

YOUR_SERVER_IP traefik.local pihole.local uptime.local nextcloud.local phpmyadmin.local jellyfin.local heimdall.local

💾 Save and exit.

docker-compose up -d

This will:
✅ Start Traefik with self-signed SSL
✅ Deploy Pi-hole, Uptime Kuma, Nextcloud, Jellyfin, Heimdall, phpMyAdmin, MariaDB, and Portainer
✅ Enable automatic HTTPS for all services

• Check running containers:

  docker ps

• Restart a specific service:

  docker-compose restart <service-name>

• Stop all services:

  docker-compose down

• Start all services again:

  docker-compose up -d

docker logs traefik --tail 50
docker logs pihole --tail 50
docker logs uptime-kuma --tail 50

docker-compose restart traefik

ping pihole.local
