Inventory variables

HTTP service

The traefik_http_dynamic_config variable describes the configuration of services operating over the http protocol. Required variables: name, services_url, domain.

  • name - The name of your configuration.
  • services_url - Service address.
  • domain or raw_domain - The domain on which the service will run.
  • middlewares - Listing the names of the required middlewares.

Rule http. Resource link

TLS Certificates:

  • You can connect your TLS Certificate to each service tls_resolver or tls.
  • tls - Your generated self-signed certificate.
  • tls_resolver - Certificate provided by Let’s Encrypt. Required parameters: main and sans.
# Example:
traefik_http_dynamic_config:
  # http, no certificate but with middlewares
  - name: 'name_config__HTTP__'
    services_url: 'http://172.16.1.10:9000'
    domain: 'test-http.example.com'
    middlewares:
      - "Middlewares_http00"
      - "Middlewares_http01"
  # https with Let`s Encrypt cert + traefik rule custom host
  - name: 'name_config__HTTPS__1'
    services_url: 'http://172.16.1.10:9000'
    domain: 'testdomain.example.com'
    tls_resolver:
      main: 'testdomain.example.com'
      sans: '*.testdomain.example.com'
  # https with Let`s Encrypt cert + traefik ruled Host
  - name: 'name_config__HTTPS__1'
    services_url: 'http://172.16.1.10:9000'
    raw_domain: >-
      'HostRegexp(`testdomain2.example.com`,
      `{subdomain:[a-zA-Z0-9-]+}.testdomain2.example.com`)'
    tls_resolver:
      main: 'testdomain.example.com'
      sans: '*.testdomain.example.com'
  # https with default cert and middlewares for https
  - name: 'name_config__HTTPS__2'
    services_url: 'http://172.16.1.10:9000'
    domain: 'testdomain2.example.com'
    tls: {}
    middlewares:
      - "Middlewares_https00"
      - "Middlewares_https01"
  # https with Let`s Encrypt auto domain cert + traefik ruled Host
  - name: 'name_config__HTTPS__3'
    services_url: 'http://172.16.1.10:9000'
    raw_domain: >-
      'Host(`testdomain3.example.com`, `testdomain4.example.com`)'
    tls_simple_acme: true

HTTP and HTTPS service

The traefik_http_and_https_config variable describes the configuration of services operating over the http and https protocol.

The parameter is used in cases when you need to have access to one service using different protocols: http and https.

The traefik_http_and_https_config works with similar parameters traefik_http_dynamic_config.

# Example:
traefik_http_and_https_config:
  - name: 'test_1'
    services_url: 'http://127.0.0.1:8080/'
    domain: 'test1.local'

TCP service

The traefik_tcp_dynamic_config variable describes the configuration of services operating over the tcp protocol. Required variables: name, services_address, port.

  • name - The name of your configuration.
  • services_address - Service address.
  • port - Listening port for traffic setup.
  • entrypoints_extra_parameters - Configure parameters Traefik entrypoints.
# Example:
traefik_tcp_dynamic_config:
  - name: 'test_config__TCP__'
    services_address: 'git.example.com'
    port: 8086
    entrypoints_extra_parameters:
      forwardedHeaders:
        trustedIPs:
          - "127.0.0.1/32"
          - "172.16.0.0/16"
          - "172.20.100.0/24"

Transport Layer Security (TLS)

TLS Let`s Encrypt

There are variables to use letsencrypt service:

  • traefik_le_caserver, traefik_le_challenge_type and traefik_le_email - see above.
  • traefik_le_dns_challenge_provider - required variable, if traefik_le_challenge_type: "dnsChallenge"
# Example:
traefik_le_caserver: "https://acme-staging-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory"
traefik_le_challenge_type: "dnsChallenge"
traefik_le_email: "[email protected]"
traefik_le_dns_challenge_provider: "route53"

TLS. Resource link

  • traefik_tls_provider_environments - sets an additional environment variable for the provider.
# Example:
traefik_tls_provider_environments:
  - name: "AWS_PROFILE"
    value: "default"
Provider Environments
route53 AWS_PROFILE, AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY.

Provider. Resource link

Default not-LE certs

To use your certificates, set - traefik_tls_cert and traefik_tls_key.

# Example:
traefik_tls_cert: |
  -----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----
  -----END CERTIFICATE-----
traefik_tls_key: |
  -----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
  -----END RSA PRIVATE KEY-----
