This is more of a docker question than a selfhosted question, but i think that most of people here should be familiar with docker.
HA runs with network-mode : host
(in order for autodiscovery to work) when my Nginx Proxy Manager is running on a bridge network (and in a different docker-compose.yml file), which makes them not see each other as far as I know. Could I maybe add an additional network to the HA like this:
networks:
default:
driver: host
nginxnetwork:
external: true
I don’t have it setup this way myself. I just have nginx point to http://1.2.3.4:8123 where 1.2.3.4 is the LAN IP of your docker host.
I know there are ways to connect containers with the backend docker network and I think that is what you are trying to do. I’ve seen examples for Caddy and Traefik doing it this way to make setup “easier”.
