How to install/deploy Caddy with Dockge

Help
1

1. The problem I’m having:

I have set up Caddy to work on my Windows 11 PC. I have a CaddyFile in the same folder as the Caddy executable. All works well. The setup was relatively simple, the CaddyFile placed next to the executable and then run the program.

Now I have set up a NAS running TrueNAS Community. I want to now use the NAS to run Caddy instead of Windows.

I normally deploy apps through the App store or use docker-comose.yml files in Dockge. I have 2 storage systems a SSD (ssd) for apps and small storage and Hard Disk Drives (hdd) for large datasets.

Can any one tell me what compose file I should use and where should I put my CaddyFile file?

Thanks for your assistance.-

Use a docker-compose.yml with a Caddy container, mounting your Caddyfile from SSD storage. Place Caddyfile in a shared config folder like /mnt/ssd/caddy, and map it in the volume.
