WordPress with Let's Encrypt in a Docker Swarm

Install Docker Swarm by following my guide.

Configure Traefik and create secrets for storing the passwords on the Docker Swarm manager node before applying the configuration.

Create a secret for storing the password for MySQL root using the command:

printf "YourPassword" | docker secret create wordpress-mysql-root-password -

Create a secret for storing the password for WordPress database using the command:

printf "YourPassword" | docker secret create wordpress-database-password -

Clear passwords from bash history using the command:

history -c && history -w

Deploy WordPress in a Docker Swarm using the command:

docker stack deploy -c wordpress-traefik-letsencrypt-docker-swarm.yml wordpress
