Jira & Docker & Traefik Setup

Question

I'm first time Traefik user and I successfully configured this docker compose setup for Jira with Traefik and Let's Encrypt Cert.

My problem is that Jira must be able to connect to his self . Their are some Jira Services like Gadgets that loads it's data via JavaScript from via his own address over http. This typ of service does not work for me. Their is a support documents that describes this problems and also shows solutions for this. But I don't know how to setup this up correctly with Traefik/Docker. https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/how-to-fix-gadget-titles-showing-as-__msg_gadget-813697086.html

Your help would be great. Thanks a lot!

Answer 1

Configuration I got working with apps over secure - not super intuitive, but it looks like it accepts redirects secure traffic properly. I've got mine using acme on godaddy for certs, and it appears to be functioning properly over https with a forced recirect:

Forced redirect for reference:

[entryPoints]
  [entryPoints.http]
  address = ":80"
    [entryPoints.http.redirect]
    entryPoint = "https"
  [entryPoints.https]
  address = ":443"
    [entryPoints.https.tls]

And the dockerfile that I made to get things deployed properly:

version: '3'

services:
  jira:
    image: dchevell/jira-software:8.1.0
    deploy:
      restart_policy:
        condition: on-failure
      labels:
        - traefik.frontend.rule=Host:jira.mydomain.com
        - traefik.enable=true
        - traefik.port=8080
    ports:
      - "8080"
    networks:
      - traefik-pub
      - jiranet
    environment:
      - CATALINA_CONNECTOR_PROXYNAME=jira.mydomain.com
      - CATALINA_CONNECTOR_PROXYPORT=443
      - CATALINA_CONNECTOR_SCHEME=https
      - CATALINA_CONNECTOR_SECURE=true 

  jira-postgresql:
    image: postgres:11.2-alpine
    networks:
      - jiranet
    ports:
      - "5432"  
    volumes:
      - jira-postgres-data:/var/lib/postgresql/data
    environment:
      - POSTGRES_PASSWORD=supersecret
      - POSTGRES_USER=secret_user
      - POSTGRES_DB=jira_db
    labels:
      - "traefik.enable=false"      

volumes:
  jira-postgres-data:

networks:
  traefik-pub:
    external: true
  jiranet:
    driver: overlay

This still required manual configuration of the database - I may one day take the time to build my own jira dockerfile that accepts the database config already, but with this one working, I don't see much point in pre-configuring the database connection when it's 20 seconds of extra work vs. rebuilding a dockerfile that I haven't written myself.
