Enable SSL with Traefik

By default, SSL is enabled with a self signed certificate. You have to copy your own certificates according to your domain

Prerequisites:

  • mkcert installed to create a new self-signed certificate.
  • Certificates for your domain

Step 1: Copy your certificates files

  1. Copy your certificates files to the server hosting Liberty Framework

  2. Transfer you certificate to the Docker container 

    1
2
    docker cp <your_certificate_directory>/cert.pem traefik:/etc/certs/cert.pem
docker cp <your_certificate_directory>/key.pem traefik:/etc/certs/key.pem

Final Administrator Note: Certificates must be transferred to the Docker container with each renewal

Step2: Create a self-signed certificate (optional)

  1. Connect to the server hosting Liberty Framework

  2. Create a new self signed certificate 

    1
    mkcert -key-file ./certs/key.pem -cert-file ./certs/cert.pem '<server_name>'

  3. Transfer you certificate to the Docker container 

    1
2
    docker cp ./certs/cert.pem traefik:/etc/certs/cert.pem
docker cp ./certs/key.pem traefik:/etc/certs/key.pem

Final Administrator Note: After updating both files, it is required to restart the Traefik service to apply the new settings.
