Best reverse proxy with ACME to run in docker (lemmy.world)

I've been self hosting traditionally in debian, but I would like to be able to add services easier using docker. As such, I'm looking to move to a container based architecture.

One place I struggle is that I can't seem to find a good container where the default image supports ACME to support Let's encrypt for automatic cert renewal.

For Nginx, I would have you build my container. HAproxy ACME support seems to be a shell script.

Any suggestions?

This is usually where something like Traefik comes in. It will reverse proxy the docker instance and it can be configured to handle let's encrypt. The are also other options I like nginx proxy manager and I think Caddy also can do this, by I don't have experience with that.

    Yep I use caddy for all that. Bonus is caddy has a docker compose proxy plugin where all your domain/port/cert config can be part of your each application’s compose file, rather than needing to make adjustments in caddy centrally. Works great for my purposes.
