Lab - Nexus Docker Repository with Nginx Reverse Proxy

Pre-Setup Instructions

  1. Create Self-signed certifications
  2. Run docker-compose up -d
  • C: Country code in our case its UK
  • ST: State, Greater London
  • L: City, London
  • O: Organisation
  • OU: Organisation Unit i.e. Dept.
  • CN: Common Name its important this is the server name.

We can format the details of the Cert. into one string and automate the creation of the Self-signed certificate.

-subj "/C=UK/O=IndexFeed/OU=DevOps Dept. /CN=nexus.cards.idx.zone"

openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 \
-newkey rsa:2048 \
-keyout nginx-selfsigned.key \
-out nginx-selfsigned.crt \
-subj "/C=UK/O=IndexFeed/OU=DevOps Dept. /CN=nexus.cards.idx.zone"
  • req
  • -509
  • -nodes
  • -days 365
  • -newkey
  • -out
  • -subj

How to clean up docker

Remove containers
docker-compose stop
docker-compose rm
Remove Network & volume
docker network ls
docker network rm nginx-net

docker volume ls
docker volume rm nexus-data

Or alternatively you could prune the environment with:

docker network prune
docker volume prune

Steps

vagrant up
vagrant ssh

Now inside the vagrant VM

cd /vagrant
sudo ./bin/setup-env.sh
docker-compose up -d

Containers should be started

On Host machine update /etc/hosts file with vagrant IP

# Prints vagrant IP
vagrant ssh -c "hostname -I | cut -d' ' -f2" 2>/dev/null

/etc/hosts

The file should look something like this:

##
# Host Database
#
# localhost is used to configure the loopback interface
# when the system is booting.  Do not change this entry.
##
127.0.0.1	localhost
255.255.255.255	broadcasthost
::1             localhost
