terafin/nextdns-proxy

Simple NextDNS proxy DNS server that you can run on your local network to proxy all traffic via secure DNS to NextDNS

nextdns-proxy

This is a simple DNS server that wraps up dnsmasq and the nextdns client into a single package

Example usage

Here is an example docker-compose.yml file that will setup three docker services.

1. The autoheal service from willfarrell/autoheal that will kill the container if DNS services fail.
2. The DNS service itself
3. Will auto update nextdns-proxy
