Lots of folk have mentioned Caddy, but I'd like to also mention Traefik which kind of does the same thing but I found it to be less of a pain in the arse.



Traefik has a very verbose config with non-sensible defaults; Caddy works out of the box with 1-3 lines to setup your domain and sensible defaults.

What's the pain?


Tarefik because it is better architectured, auto discovery of docker services , battle tested


Link for others curious about the discovery:

https://doc.traefik.io/traefik/providers/docker/

(but preferring Caddy so far)


That can be done with Caddy as well: https://github.com/lucaslorentz/caddy-docker-proxy


This didn't work when I tried Caddy before, and it was the entire thing I needed to do.

I should revisit Caddy and see how it gets on.


It didn't cope with services starting and stopping well, and couldn't provision services from docker (at least when I looked at it).


Could you elaborate? We'd like to improve where practical.
