Featurerequest in Readme: How to use basic auth? about caddy-docker-proxy HOT 5 CLOSED

basicauth doesn't support single-line syntax with a username/password on the same line as the directives, you need to use a block instead. So do caddy.basicauth.mylogin: <password>

from caddy-docker-proxy.

great this works! But my password is not accepted. Is the way how I created the password correct?

But how can I just protect a specific folder or several folders like /admin/* and /cms/*

from caddy-docker-proxy.

Use the user/pass example here to confirm https://caddyserver.com/docs/caddyfile/directives/basicauth#examples, if that works then the problem isn't with how you're setting up the config but rather with the password you generated.

Simple path matching:

caddy.basicauth: /admin/*
caddy.basicauth.mylogin: <password>

But if you need to match multiple paths you'll need to use a named matcher. See the README for examples.

My docker-compose line looks like that:

caddy.basicauth.Bob: "$2a$14$Zkx19XLiW6VYouLHR5NmfOFU0z2GTNmpkT/5qqR7hx4IjWJPDhjvG"
But I can not login with
user: Bob
pw: hiccup

Do I have to restart caddy or do something else?

I just restart my docker compose every time I change a line?

EDIT:
Escaping is necessary $ => $$ and just canceling was not enough. I use docker compose stop and down and then up and it worked.

What would be the correct way to reload the labels?

from caddy-docker-proxy.

up -d should be enough to make Docker Compose recognize the labels changed and recreate the relevant containers. You shouldn't need to down.
