The YR api is located at https://www.yr.no/api/v0/. This repo contains a docker-compose and config files to serve the api using a nginx proxy container for fetching data from Yr and a Varnish cache container to cache the requests. Sample Traefik labels are added to make the api available on the internet.
The setup will cache (TTL) for 30 minutes and serve stale content for another 5 minutes (grace period - while doing an async fetch of data from the API).

Just do docker-compose up -d.
If you want to bind to local ports or make the container available through a reverse proxy, then add stuff to docker-compose.override.xml (sampe provided).
