Release 6.0.1 · byjg/docker-easy-haproxy

What's New

EasyHAProxy now ships a built-in monitoring dashboard — no extra containers, no Prometheus, no Grafana required.

Zero-dependency: runs inside the EasyHAProxy process as a Python daemon thread, served via an embedded HTTP server on 127.0.0.1:9190 and proxied through a dedicated frontend dashboard / backend srv_dashboard
Live view: frontends, backends, servers, bytes in/out, active sessions, request rate — all updating in real time
Charts: Traffic Volume and Request Rate & Sessions plotted over time
Enable with one env var: set HAPROXY_PASSWORD and open http://<host>:11936/

See the Monitoring Dashboard guide for setup details.

srv_stats and srv_dashboard internal backends now carry check, so HAProxy actively monitors them and the stats page reflects their real status.

Note: certbot_backend intentionally has no check — the certbot listener is ephemeral and only runs during ACME challenges.

Fixed ACME e2e test fixture leaking containers when docker compose --wait failed. The docker_compose_acme fixture now guarantees fixture.down() is called even when fixture.up() raises.
Fixed stale cached Docker image being used by the ACME test compose. The compose now references byjg/easy-haproxy:local — the same image built by the main test suite.

New Monitoring Dashboard guide with screenshots, login dialog explanation, and environment variable reference
HAPROXY_STATS_CORS_ORIGIN now documented as required for the dashboard to function (browser enforces CORS between the dashboard port and the stats API port)
README updated with dashboard feature highlight and thumbnail
