Docker compose without nginx container?

[Robinio3d]

Hi,
is it possible to publish ports directly over the mini-qr docker container instead of an addtitional ngninx container? I already use nginx proxy manager or is it nessecary?

yep, you can skip the bundled nginx container if Nginx Proxy Manager is already your front proxy.

The app image itself listens on 8080 (serve -s dist -l 8080). I tested the prebuilt image directly with docker run -p 127.0.0.1:18082:8080 ghcr.io/lyqht/mini-qr:latest, and also with a compose file containing only the mini-qr service + ports; both returned 200 from /.

A minimal compose setup can be:

services:
  mini-qr:
    image: ghcr.io/lyqht/mini-qr:latest
    ports:
      - "127.0.0.1:8080:8080"

Then point NPM at that host/port. If NPM is attached to the same Docker network, you can skip host port publishing and proxy to mini-qr:8080 inside the network. The included nginx service is mainly for the one-file quickstart that exposes port 80.
