# Traefik + Docker Compose

> Configure Traefik as a reverse proxy for Postiz

<Snippet file="earlydoc.mdx" />

This is a very popular configuration to get an easy reverse proxy up and running with Traefik and Docker Compose.

## Add Traefik to your Docker Compose file

```yaml theme={null}
version: '3.8'
services:
  postiz:
    ##
    ## Include all the other configuration from the standard compose example.
    ##

    labels:
      # Router for main Postiz entrypoint (on port 5000)
      - "traefik.http.routers.postiz.rule=Host(`postiz.example.lan`)"  # Replace with your domain
      - "traefik.http.services.postiz.loadbalancer.server.port=5000"  # Internal port for postiz
      - "traefik.http.routers.postiz.entrypoints=websecure"  # Postiz requires HTTPS
      - "traefik.http.routers.postiz.tls=true"


  traefik:
    image: "traefik:v2.9"
    container_name: "traefik"
    command:
      #- "--log.level=DEBUG"

      - "--api.dashboard=true"
