How to configure a hostname for localhost Caddy & Docker

I’m trying to configure a hostname for my localhost, instead to use http://localhost:8080I want to access like http://mytestcaddy.env, but I don’t know how to write my Caddyfile. I’m using docker to up php and caddy server. If I execute the script, I can access my index.php page.

My Caddyfile

0.0.0.0
root /srv/app
gzip
fastcgi / 127.0.0.1:9000 php
rewrite {
   regexp .*
   ext /
   to /index.php?{query}
}

header / -Server

log stdout
errors stdout
on startup php-fpm --nodaemonize

I tried to change my Caddyfile to use proxy, but i don’t know how works.

I tried like this,

http://mytestcaddy.env
proxy / localhost:8080
root /srv/app
gzip
fastcgi / 127.0.0.1:9000 php
rewrite {
   regexp .*
   ext /
   to /index.php?{query}
}

header / -Server

log stdout
errors stdout
on startup php-fpm --nodaemonize

OR

http://mytestcaddy.env {
 proxy / localhost:8080
 root /srv/app
 gzip
 fastcgi / 127.0.0.1:9000 php
 rewrite {
    regexp .*
    ext /
   to /index.php?{query}
 }

 header / -Server

 log stdout
 errors stdout
 on startup php-fpm --nodaemonize
}

My docker-compose.yml

version: "3"
services:
app:
   image: caddy-app
   container_name: caddy-app
   build:
      context: .
      dockerfile: .docker/Dockerfile
ports:
  - 8080:2015
volumes:
  - .:/srv/app

My Dockerfile

FROM php:7.2-fpm

LABEL maintainer="rIckSanchez|AndreFigueredo"
LABEL project="Caddy"

COPY . /srv/app


RUN curl --silent --show-error --fail --location \
--header "Accept: application/tar+gzip, application/x-gzip,application/octet-stream" -o - \
"https://caddyserver.com/download/linux/amd64? 
plugins=http.expires,http.realip&license=personal" \
| tar --no-same-owner -C /usr/bin/ -xz caddy \
&& chmod 0755 /usr/bin/caddy \
&& /usr/bin/caddy -version

COPY .docker/Caddyfile /etc/Caddyfile

RUN chown -R www-data:www-data /srv/app

CMD ["/usr/bin/caddy", "--conf", "/etc/Caddyfile", "--log","stdout"]

EXPOSE 2015

Hi @Andre_Victor_Oliveir,

There is no need to change your Caddyfile at all - your original version (with the site label 0.0.0.0) will respond to a request for any hostname.

You also don’t need to proxy anything - Caddy can continue serving files off the disk, like it currently is. You especially don’t need Caddy to proxy to itself.

What happens when you browse to http://mytestcaddy.env?
