assuming you have Docker Instance and wanna run a Secure Webserver in a few Seconds ? Here is an Example how todo it …

Fireup Docker

start a fresh and empty Container with Alpine Linux. Get a Shell. Docker will be removed when you leave the shell (–rm)

docker run -it --rm -p 80:80 -p 443:443 --name alpine-ssl alpine /bin/sh

Set FQDN

this should point to your ip address …

fqdn='host.your.domain.de'

Add Caddy

replace ‘host.your.domain.de’ with your fqdn

cat << EOF > Caddyfile
${fqdn}
