How to use caddy-config.yml in docker-compose file?

[di-rect]

Hi all,

I’m trying to load caddy-config.yml by mapping this file to /config/caddy-config.yml or /config/caddy/caddy-config.yml but I don’t see it being logged in the docker log when starting the container.

How do I use a json file instead of the Caddyfile ?

Thanks!

Please fill out the help topic template as per the forum rules.

I don’t understand your question without context.

You don’t understand how to load a configfile using mapping ? That has nothing todo with the forum rules.

I have no idea what you’re talking about. What do you mean by “mapping”? That doesn’t mean anything on its own. I can’t read your mind.

Yes it does. We need the context from the answers to the questions in the template to be able to help you.

With docker you should know what mapping is actually.

Anyways; you did as you gave the answer earlier this year it seems

I want to use caddy.json with docker-compose how can i?

Your volumes were fine, you need to override the command the container starts up with. So, command: caddy run --config /etc/caddy/caddy.json

No, “mapping” has no particular meaning. A mapping is just a relationship/association between two or more things. That’s extremely vague.

If you asked “how do I specify a JSON config file for Caddy to use”, then I could have answered that.

^^ I quote from my first post; your reply was just to fast as a “first poster” (you seem to do a lot)

Nevermind!
