In this episode, we’ll take a look at some things we need to keep in mind when we want to run multiple instances of an ASP.NET Core application, namely data protection configuration and how it impacts our application even without us using it directly.
In this episode, we’ll take the Docker containers we prepared previously and use Docker Compose to get the complete PlayBall application running.
In this episode, we’ll be creating Docker containers for our applications, with the goal of making it easier to get them all running as a whole.
Been reading through my saved posts on dev.to, so the source for today is mostly that. Articles “Intercept HTTP traffic exiting a docker container” Nice example on how to intercept HTTP and HTTPS requests coming from a Docker container for debugging. “Homographs, Attack!” Had already seen some quick articles on these kinds of attacks where the URL for a page is not what it looks like, but this is a really good post explaining things in more depth....
Intro I wanted to play a little with Docker Compose so I created a little PoC that had the usual components of a web application: a frontend, a backend and a supporting database. Sample code to follow along here. Sample overview As I was just looking for the simplest thing just to make all the bits work together, I whipped out a pretty stupid scenario. The application basically lists some counters and increments each one as it’s selected....
To finish up this series of posts I’ll just go by a couple of extra things I needed to do to get the, mostly functional by now, site to work better. The main points are: Getting some certificates to get the site working on https. Using a mail server to overcome an issue with WordPress running on Docker. Get the site on HTTPS Everybody likes (or should) when you go to a web site and it uses HTTPS, even more so when there are private stuff going down the wire (like user credentials)....
This post will focus on installing the Docker engine and then running the applications we need to make the blog work as Docker containers. I’m not the best to explain all about Docker, so I’ll focus on what I needed to do to get the blog running. If you really want to learn about Docker there are lots of good resources out there, starting with Docker’s own documentation (which I used a lot)....
So I guess a good article to begin with would be to explain how I got this site up. Even more fitting is it has nothing to do with .NET, which you would expect would be on the debut article around this parts (rest assured those will come like a stampede :) ). So, let me start by summarize how this thing is working: The server is a Linode [1] virtual machine....
