Let's Encrypt

[azN2]

Hey, I'm trying to configure my docker-compose.yml to work with Let's Encrypt.

      jrcs/letsencrypt-nginx-proxy-companion
      jwilder/nginx-proxy 

are the images I'm using to handle the process automatically.
typically with this command added to the docker-compose.yml file added in the environment section

- VIRTUAL_HOST=wiki.foo.bar
- LETSENCRYPT_HOST=wiki.foo.bar
- LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL=no@email.com

docker-compose.yml

version: '2'
services:

  mysql:
    image: mysql:5.7.12
    environment:
    - MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD=secret
    - MYSQL_DATABASE=bookstack
    - MYSQL_USER=bookstack
    - MYSQL_PASSWORD=secret
    volumes:
    - ./mysql:/var/lib/mysql

  bookstack:
    image: solidnerd/bookstack:0.14.3
    depends_on:
    - mysql
    environment:
    - VIRTUAL_HOST=wiki.foo.bar
    - LETSENCRYPT_HOST=wiki.foo.bar
    - LETSENCRYPT_EMAIL=no@email.com
    - DB_HOST=mysql:3306
    - DB_DATABASE=bookstack
    - DB_USERNAME=bookstack
    - DB_PASSWORD=secret
    volumes:
    - ./uploads:/var/www/BookStack/public/uploads
    - ./storage-uploads:/var/www/BookStack/storage/uploads
    ports:
    - "8080:80"

This isn't working. I've tried to do this with individual containers as well with no luck.
Thanks for any help.

Hi @Krenken,
Are you using the nginx proxy containers in your docker compose setup at all? At the moment it looks like you're simply adding a few additional environment variables to the BookStack container.

I am also having difficulties getting HTTPS setup with a Let's Encrypt certificate. Is there a documented or recommended method for securing Bootstack with SSL?

I've had issues with this, what fixed it for me was to have everything in the same network:
docker network create bookstacknet and then have all containers including nginx, nginx-gen, letsencrypt, mysql, and bookstack have the option --net bookstacknet

Any easier way to do this? My server already has a letsencrypt cert set up on it, I'm just hosting BookStack on a different port using the docker image. How can I get it to play nice?

This issue was closed due to inactivity but should be reopened. Without https bookstack is not a viable solution.
