Giving example for vanilla NGINX (not nginx-proxy) + docker-gen to the community

[unixfox]

Hello,

I would like to give to the community an example of using docker-rollout with a simple vanilla NGINX with docker-gen.

I didn't want to write my NGINX config in docker labels, I wanted to keep using the flexibility of nginx.conf files. And using mounting the docker socket in a separate container (not the nginx webserver) is more secure.

Here is the source code: https://github.com/unixfox/simple-docker-rollout-nginx-dockergen

I tested with wrk and got no "errors" report:

Running 1m test @ http://localhost:8080

Looks nice! Is it draining working as well? I believe docker-gen would have to only put the container ip in the config file if the healthcheck is passing.

Do you want to contribute your solution to docs/examples so it's available at https://docker-rollout.wowu.dev/examples/?
