docker-nginx-accessfabric-certbot

Create and automatically renew website SSL certificates using the letsencrypt free certificate authority, and its client certbot. Built upon obviateio/docker-nginx-accessfabric for use with ScaleFT Access Fabric. For regular Nginx, see staticfloat/docker-nginx-certbot.

Usage

• Login to ScaleFT
• Create a project
• Go into that project & create an application
• Verify your origin URL (ex: gitlab.ext.company.tld) is in DNS and externally resolveable
• Cname the custom hostname (ex: gitlab.company.tld) to the application URL (ex: random-words-1234.accessfabric.com)
• mkdir ./letsencrypt/
• mkdir ./conf.d/
• Add a .conf such as (ex: ./conf.d/gitlab.conf):

server {
    auth_accessfabric	on;
    auth_accessfabric_audience "https://random-words-1234.accessfabric.com";
    listen              443 ssl;
    server_name         gitlab.ext.company.tld gitlab.company.tld random-words-1234.accessfabric.com";
    ssl_certificate     /etc/letsencrypt/live/gitlab.ext.company.tld/fullchain.pem;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/gitlab.ext.company.tld/privkey.pem;

    location / {
        proxy_pass http://gitlabinstance.company.int:80;
    }
}

• Run docker container:

docker run --name=nginx \
 -e [email protected] \
 -v /home/myuser/conf.d/:/etc/nginx/conf.d/ \
 -v /home/myuser/letsencrypt/:/etc/letsencrypt/ \
 -p 80:80 -p 443:443 \
 --restart=always \
 -d shakataganai/nginx-accessfabric-certbot:latest

When the container first starts, if the key's are not detected it will turn the .conf off. Once certbot aquires a certificate, the .conf will be turned back on and nginx reloaded. If there are issues, run docker log nginx. Accessing gitlab.ext.company.tld should result in a 401 Access Denied. Accessing gitlab.company.tld should result in functional Access Fabric login proccess and your end-service.
