After creating application using iectl publisher standalone-app create
You can create an app version by using the nginx reverse proxy with the following command:
# examples are based on given yaml
version: "2.4"
services:
nginx: #serviceName to be used in --redirectsection, to tell device to use this service for app redirection.
image: nginx:alpine
restart: always
mem_limit: 200m
$ iectl publisher standalone-app version create \
--appname "my cool app" \
--yamlpath "/path/to/folder/with/docker-compose.yaml" \
--versionnumber "1.0.0" \
--nginxjson '{"nginx":[{"name":"ui","protocol":"HTTP","port":"80","headers":"","rewriteTarget":"/"}]}' \ # nginxjson is json map of docker compose service names and arrays of reverse proxy settings.
--redirectsection "nginx" \ # redirectsection requires the service name within docker-compose which contains the container that shall be exposed
--redirecttype "FromBoxReverseProxy" \ # redirecttype is either FromBoxSpecificPort for direct port exposure or FromBoxReverseProxy for reverse proxy exposure
--redirecturl "ui/" \ # redirecturl is the port which shall be exposed from your container
--restredirecturl "" \ # restredirecturl path will be used upon redirect to your application
The nginx settings will look as follows for example when the app is installed on an Edge Device (Assuing 10.10.10.10 as the service ip in the proxy-redirect network):
location = /ui {
rewrite /ui/(.*) /$1 break;
rewrite (^/ui)$ $1/ permanent;
}
location ~* ^/ui\/ {
auth_request /auth;
rewrite /ui/(.*) /$1 break;
rewrite /ui/ / break;
rewrite (^/ui)$ $1/ permanent;
proxy_pass http://10.10.10.10:80;
}
