Dev systems with docker for with ssl for local host

Installation

In your home workspace eg /home /home/project1 /home/project2

We will clone our nginx call sail_share to home directory /home/sail_share

cd /home
git clone https://github.com/zenepay/https-localhost-docker.git sail_share
cd sail_share

This will make 3 docker images for:

  1. nginx to route url eg project1.dev.localhost where project1 is running ohter ports eg 8801
  2. mariadb database port 3306
  3. phpmyadmin to mange mariadb port: 8890

Setup SSL on localhost

Step 1: Generate a CA Certificate

mkdir nginx-certs
cd nginx-certs
openssl genrsa -out ca.key -des3 2048
openssl req -x509 -sha256 -new -nodes -days 3650 -key ca.key -out ca.pem

Step 2: Generate Certificate, Signed By Our CA

We already has resources/localhost.ext file, if not yet exist here please using this:

authorityKeyIdentifier=keyid,issuer
basicConstraints=CA:FALSE
keyUsage = digitalSignature, nonRepudiation, keyEncipherment, dataEncipherment
extendedKeyUsage = serverAuth, clientAuth
subjectAltName = @alt_names
[req]
req_extensions = req_ext
[req_distinguished_name]
commonName_default = localhost
[req_ext]
subjectAltName = @alt_names
[alt_names]
DNS.1 = *.dev.localhost
DNS.2 = dev.localhost
DNS.3 = localhost

Now generate locahost.key file with this command

Generate a private key

Choose a simple passphrase eg. NginXpass for your key. Enter it, re-enter it. You are still in the resources folder

openssl genrsa -out localhost.key -des3 2048

-Generate certificate signing request using key. -Enter the passphrase eg. NginXpass that you chose for the key -Choose defaults or enter information as appropriate. Don't worry about entering anything for "challenge password"

openssl req -new -key localhost.key -out localhost.csr

Use the passphrase that you chose for the CA KEY in Step 1.

openssl x509 -req -in localhost.csr -CA ca.pem -CAkey ca.key \
-CAcreateserial -days 3650 -sha256 \
-extfile ../resources/localhost.ext -out localhost.crt

Use the passphrase eg. NginXpass chosen for the localhost key, which is NOT the same as the CA key.

openssl rsa -in localhost.key -out localhost.decrypted.key

Step 3: Import CA Certificate to Browsers

in brownser chrome put url as: chrome://settings/certificates Click Import then browse to nginx-certs/ca.pem Click on the box that says “Trust this certificate for identifying websites.” Click on “OK.”

Step 4: set ip for host in hosts file

C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts eg:

127.0.0.1 kubernetes.docker.internal localhost mariadb dev.localhost *.dev.localhost

192.168.1.111 host.docker.internal
192.168.1.111 gateway.docker.internal

Step 5: edit global.pass

Change your file /nginx/keys/global.pass eg. NginXpass by enter your passphase of the key created above

Step 6: edit default.conf.template

Change server_name to the subdomain, you want Chage port to where the docker image is run eg port 8000 proxy_pass http://host.docker.internal:8000;

#for default local nginx hosting
server {
    listen  443 ssl;
    server_name dev.localhost;
    root /var/www/html;

    ssl_certificate     /etc/nginx/certs/localhost.crt;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/certs/localhost.key;

    location / {
        index index.php index.html;
    }
    location ~ \.php$ {
        include fastcgi_params;
        fastcgi_pass php:9000;
        fastcgi_index index.php;
        fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root/$fastcgi_script_name;
    }
}
#for forward proxy hosint with docker or other ports
server {
    listen  443 ssl;
    server_name subdomain.dev.localhost;

    # Self signed certificates
    # Don't use them in a production server!
    ssl_certificate     /etc/nginx/certs/localhost.crt;
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/certs/localhost.key;

    location / {
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
        proxy_set_header Host $host;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
        proxy_pass	http://host.docker.internal:8000;
    }
}

Step 7: set network of your docker project to the same

Edit your docker-compose.yml on your docker project (not this project) must have network zen-network and external: true as below

networks:
    sail:
        driver: bridge
        name: zen-network
        external: true

Step 8: create with docker compose

create .env file

cd ..
mv .env.example .env
mkdir mariadb

Now open Docker Desktop to let it start the service, after that run following to build the image

docker compose up
