HAProxy with stdout logging

forked from mminks/haproxy-docker-logging

About this image

This image uses latest Alpine-based HAProxy image, starts rsyslog and provides stdout logging.

Configuration

To use stdout logging with your Docker container, please use this snippet in your HAProxy config:

global
    log 127.0.0.1 local0 debug

defaults
    log global

Usage

Please visit official HAProxy repository for information on how to use this image. It is pretty the same.

Example

Mounting a HAProxy configuration file is mandatory. This image doesn't include any configuration itself. See the -v section below.

docker run -d \
           -p <host port>:<container port> \
           -p <host port>:<container port> \
           -v /path/to/haproxy/config:/usr/local/etc/haproxy/haproxy.cfg:ro \
           --name haproxy \
           mminks/haproxy-docker-logging

Reload HAProxy

Reload your HAProxy in case of config changes without restarting the complete container. Send a SIGHUP signal to the container an the HAProxy process will reload gracefully.

docker kill -s SIGHUP haproxy
