You can simply use the Docker healthcheck. The container will mark itself as **unhealthy** if the public IP address is not part of the PIA IPs. Otherwise you can follow these instructions:
|
||||
Check the PIA IP address matches your expectations
|
||||
|
||||
1. Check your host IP address with:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
wget -qO- https://ipinfo.io/ip
|

```
|
||||

1. Run the same command in a Docker container using your *pia* container as network with:

|

## Connect to it
|
||||
|
||||
Connect other Docker containers to the PIA VPN connection by adding `--network=container:pia` when launching them.
|
||||
There are various ways to achieve this, depending on your use case.
|
||||
|
||||
For containers in the same `docker-compose.yml` as PIA, you can use `network: "service:pia"` (see below)
|
||||
- <details><summary>Connect other containers to PIA</summary><p>
|
||||
|
||||
### Access ports of PIA-connected containers
|
||||
Add `--network=container:pia` when launching the container
|
||||
|
||||
For example, the following containers are launched connected to PIA:
|
||||
</p></details>
|
||||
- <details><summary>Connect containers from another docker-compose.yml</summary><p>
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker run -d --name=deluge --network=container:pia linuxserver/deluge
|
||||
docker run -d --name=hydra --network=container:pia linuxserver/hydra
|
||||
```
|
||||
Add `network_mode: "container:pia"` to your *docker-compose.yml*
|
||||
|
||||
We want to access:
|
||||
</p></details>
|
||||
- <details><summary>Access ports of containers connected to PIA</summary><p>
|
||||
|
||||
- The HTTP web UI of Deluge at port **8112**
|
||||
- The HTTP Web UI of Hydra at port **5075**
|
||||
To access port `8000` of container `xyz` and `9000` of container `abc` connected to PIA, you will need a reverse proxy such as `qmcgaw/caddy-scratch`
|
||||
|
||||
#### With plain Docker
|
||||
1. Create the file *Caddyfile* with:
|
||||
|
||||
1. In this case we use Nginx for its small size. Create `./nginx.conf` with:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
# nginx.conf
|
||||
user nginx;
|
||||
worker_processes 1;
|
||||
events {
|
||||
worker_connections 64;
|
||||
}
|
||||
http {
|
||||
server {
|
||||
listen 8000;
|
||||
location /deluge {
|
||||
proxy_pass http://deluge:8112/;
|
||||
proxy_set_header X-Deluge-Base "/deluge";
|
||||
```ruby
|
||||
:8000 {
|
||||
proxy / xyz:8000
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
server {
|
||||
listen 8001;
|
||||
location / {
|
||||
proxy_pass http://hydra:5075/;
|
||||
:9000 {
|
||||
proxy / abc:9000
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
You can of course make more complicated Caddyfile (such as proxying `/xyz` to xyz:8000 and `/abc` to abc:9000, just ask me!)
|
||||
|
||||
1. Run Caddy with
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
docker run -d -p 8000:8000/tcp -p 9000:9000/tcp \
|
||||
--link pia:xyz --link pia:abc \
|
||||
-v $(pwd)/Caddyfile:/Caddyfile:ro \
|
||||
qmcgaw/caddy-scratch
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**WARNING**: Make sure the Docker network in which Caddy runs is the same as the one of PIA. It can be the default `bridge` network.
|
||||
|
||||
1. You can now access xyz:8000 at [localhost:8000](http://localhost:8000) and abc:9000 at [localhost:9000](http://localhost:9000)
|
||||
|
||||
For more containers, add more `--link pia:xxx` and modify *nginx.conf* accordingly
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to user a *docker-compose.yml*, use this example:
|
||||
|
||||
```yml
|
||||
version: '3'
|
||||
services:
|
||||
piaproxy:
|
||||
image: qmcgaw/caddy-scratch
|
||||
container_name: piaproxy
|
||||
ports:
|
||||
- 8000:8000/tcp
|
||||
- 9000:9000/tcp
|
||||
external_links:
|
||||
- pia:xzy
|
||||
- pia:abc
|
||||
volumes:
|
||||
- ./Caddyfile:/Caddyfile:ro
|
||||
abc:
|
||||
image: abc
|
||||
container_name: abc
|
||||
network_mode: "container:pia"
|
||||
xyz:
|
||||
image: xyz
|
||||
container_name: xyz
|
||||
network_mode: "container:pia"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
1. Run the [Nginx Alpine container](https://hub.docker.com/_/nginx):
|
||||
</p></details>
|
||||
- <details><summary>Access ports of containers connected to PIA, all in the same *docker-compose.yml*</summary><p>
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
docker run -d -p 8000:8000/tcp -p 8001:8001/tcp \
|
||||
--link pia:deluge --link pia:hydra \
|
||||
-v $(pwd)/nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:ro \
|
||||
nginx:alpine
|
||||
To access port `8000` of container `xyz` and `9000` of container `abc` connected to PIA, you can put all the configuration in
|
||||
one single *docker-compose.yml* file. According to [issue 21](https://github.com/qdm12/private-internet-access-docker/issues/21),
|
||||
this should do (**untested**):
|
||||
|
||||
```yml
|
||||
version: '3'
|
||||
services:
|
||||
pia:
|
||||
image: qmcgaw/private-internet-access
|
||||
container_name: pia
|
||||
cap_add:
|
||||
- NET_ADMIN
|
||||

|
||||
- /dev/net/tun
|

environment:

|
||||

||||

|
||||

||||

|
||||
container_name: abc
|
||||

|
||||
ports:
|
||||
- 8000:8000/tcp
|
||||
xyz:
|
||||
image: xyz
|
||||
container_name: xyz
|
||||
network_mode: "service:pia"
|
||||
ports:
|
||||
- 9000:9000/tcp
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
**WARNING**: Make sure the Docker network in which Nginx runs is the same as the one of PIA. It can be the default `bridge` network.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Access the WebUI of Deluge at [localhost:8000](http://localhost:8000) and Hydra at [localhost:8001](http://localhost:8001)
|
||||
|
||||
For more containers, add more `--link pia:xxx` and modify *nginx.conf* accordingly
|
||||
|
||||
#### With an external docker-compose
|
||||
|
||||
The docker compose file would look like (see above for *nginx.conf* content):
|
||||
|
||||
```yml
|
||||
version: '3'
|
||||
services:
|
||||
nginx:
|
||||
image: nginx:alpine
|
||||
container_name: pia_proxy
|
||||
ports:
|
||||

|
||||
- 8001:8001/tcp
|
||||
links:
|
||||
- pia:deluge
|
||||
- pia:hydra
|
||||
volumes:
|
||||
- ./nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf:ro
|
||||
deluge:
|
||||
image: linuxserver/deluge
|
||||
container_name: deluge
|
||||
network_mode: "container:pia"
|
||||
depends_on:
|
||||
- pia
|
||||
# add more volumes etc.
|
||||
hydra:
|
||||
image: linuxserver/hydra
|
||||
container_name: hydra
|
||||
network_mode: "container:hydra"
|
||||
depends_on:
|
||||
- pia
|
||||
# add more volumes etc.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
#### All in one docker-compose
|
||||
|
||||
According to [issue 21](https://github.com/qdm12/private-internet-access-docker/issues/21), this should do:
|
||||
|
||||
```yml
|
||||
version: '3'
