SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill solves the problem of exposing external Docker Compose projects on your NAS host, making them accessible via a URL, with safety guards in place.

Core Features & Use Cases

External Project Exposure: Expose your Docker Compose project running outside the lilnas monorepo to a URL.
Safety Guards: Provides security by default (gate-by-default) and helps avoid collisions with reserved names.
Guided Workflow: Helps guide you through setting up an external project for access, ensuring it's live at https://<name>.dev.lilnas.io.

Quick Start

Use the 'expose' skill to share your 'myapp' project. Enter the project path when prompted.

FAQPage Schema

How do I expose a Docker Compose project on a NAS host to a public URL?▼

You can expose a Docker Compose project on a NAS host to a URL by configuring Traefik to route traffic, making your service accessible at a shared domain with built-in safety guards to prevent name collisions.

Can I use Traefik to share a Docker Compose service outside my main monorepo?▼

Yes, Traefik can share external Docker Compose services running outside a monorepo. The setup provides a guided workflow to configure routing and publish the project to a live HTTPS URL.

Does exposing a Docker Compose service on a shared domain provide any security?▼

Exposing a Docker Compose service provides security through a gate-by-default approach, ensuring accessible services have safety guards in place to protect against unauthorized access and reserved name collisions.

What do I need to set up before exposing an external Docker Compose project?▼

You need Docker Compose and Traefik running on your NAS host. The guided workflow then prompts for the external project path to configure the necessary routing for live access.

Are there limitations when routing external Docker Compose projects with Traefik on a NAS?▼

This approach is specifically designed for external Docker Compose projects requiring Traefik on a NAS host, meaning projects inside a monorepo or environments lacking Traefik are not supported by this workflow.
