How to assign domain to a docker container – WordPress

I use Docker-compose to develop the WordPress website together with Mysql and PHPMyAdmin.
Also, use Portainer to monitor them, showing the health icon, and I can access it by typing the IP address 192.168.188.80:3001, and I can curl the page from port 3001.

I try to assign the domain name for the different containers, there will have a couple of WordPress websites and I plan to host them on ports 3001, 3002, 3003…

I enable the conf file in Nginx and the conf file like

server {
  listen 80;
  server_name forktruck.bcsystems.nz;

  location / {
    proxy_pass http://0.0.0.0:3001;
  }
}

The yml file is here

version: '3.8'

volumes:
  wp-forktruck-data:
networks:
  wp-forktruck-network:

services:

  db:
    image: mysql:latest
    volumes:
      - ./wp-forktruck-data:/var/lib/mysql
    environment:
       MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: ${MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD}
       MYSQL_DATABASE: wordpress-forktruck
       MYSQL_USER: wp-forktruck
       MYSQL_PASSWORD: ${MYSQL_PASSWORD}
    ports:
      - 3201:3306  
    healthcheck:
      test: curl --fail http://localhost || exit 1
      interval: 300s
      start_period: 5s
      timeout: 10s
    restart: always
    networks:
      - wp-forktruck-network

  phpmyadmin:
    depends_on:
      - db
    image: phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin
    environment:
      PMA_HOST: db
      MYSQL_USER: wp-forktruck
      MYSQL_PASSWORD: ${MYSQL_PASSWORD}
      MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: ${MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD}
    ports:
      - 3101:80
    healthcheck:
      test: curl --fail http://localhost || exit 1
      interval: 300s
      start_period: 5s
      timeout: 10s
    networks:
      - wp-forktruck-network

  wordpress:
    depends_on:
      - db
    image: wordpress
    ports:
      - 3001:80
    healthcheck:
      test: curl --fail http://localhost || exit 1
      interval: 300s
      start_period: 5s
      timeout: 10s
    environment:
       WORDPRESS_DB_HOST: db:3306
       WORDPRESS_DB_USER: wp-forktruck
       WORDPRESS_DB_PASSWORD: ${MYSQL_PASSWORD}
       WORDPRESS_DB_NAME: wordpress-forktruck
    volumes:
      - ./forktruck:/var/www/
    container_name: wp-forktruck
    networks:
      - wp-forktruck-network

but something wrong and the domain name got 520 error.

    You are using Cloudflare? What is your Cloudflare DNS configs. Are you sure that the domain is pointing to public address of 192.168.188.80 (as 192.168.188.80 is private IP address and it’s accessible only on your internal network but not the internet).

    If you don’t know your public IP address, run curl ipinfo.io on the 192.168.188.80 server to get your public IP address. And then update your Cloudflare DNS config of domain forktruck.bcsystems.nz to that address.

    Note: it’s easy and worked only if you are using static IP address. If not, please consider https://ngrok.com/ instead of Cloudflare.

    you need to add the redirect option in nginx

    server {
  listen 80;
  server_name forktruck.bcsystems.nz;

  location / {
    proxy_pass http://0.0.0.0:3001;
    proxy_read_timeout  90;
    proxy_redirect http://0.0.0.0:3001 http://forktruck.bcsystems.nz/;
  }
}

    And should work, good luck
