httpd proxy

An apache httpd server set up to be usable as a proxy for data/presentation tiers

Builds on bitname httpd base image but enables the auth module:

• mod_auth_openidc

Also includes the following modules:

• mod_proxy
• mod_proxy_ajp
• mod_proxy_httpd
• mod_rewrite

Configuration

Files mounted under /vhosts are copied to the configuration image and included in the httpd startup.

Root document directory is /app so static resources can be mounted here.

Runs as a non-root user on port 8080 so vhost files must match that port.

See: bitnami-docker-apache for full configuration details.

Example for a data tier proxy

docker run --network=dnet --name=proxy -p 80:8080 -v $PWD/conf:/vhosts epimorphics/httpd-proxy-oauth:latest

Where the ./conf directory contains a vhost file such as:

<VirtualHost *:8080>	
    ProxyPreserveHost       On
    ProxyPass /landregistry/query             http://fuseki:3030/landregistry/query    max=7 retry=0
    ProxyPass /landregistry-stdreports/query  http://fuseki:3030/landregistry_to/query max=2 retry=0
    ProxyPass /ping                           http://fuseki:3030/$/ping
</VirtualHost> 

Assumes docker user-defined bridge network called dnet and fuseki iamge running with name fuseki.
