Install Docker & Docker Compose on Linux OS

#For Ubuntu 20.04 version

#Ubuntu 20.04
sudo apt install docker.io
sudo apt install docker-compose

Or Other Linux Versions:

#CentOS 7, Debian, Ubuntu 18.04/16.04
curl -sSL https://get.docker.com/ | sh 
systemctl start docker 
systemctl enable docker

Install Portainer

root@Linux:/# docker volume create portainer_data
root@Linux:/# docker run -d -p 9000:9000 --name portainer --restart always -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock -v portainer_data:/data portainer/portainer-ce:latest

You should be able to access portainer website using vps' public ip. http://<public ip>:9000

Deploy Nginx Docker Using Portainer

In this lab, I am using opc2portainer.51sec.org as domain url. Make sure your domain opc2portainer.51sec.org is pointing to your VPS's public ip. 

Create a new Container in Portainer:

Note: Both port 80 and 443 will need to map from Docker to Host. 

Use Nginx As Reverse Proxy Server for Portainer

In this lab, Nginx will be configured as reverse proxy to redirect all traffic for opc2portainer.51sec.org on port 80 and 443 to proxied docker website Portainer. 

apt update && apt install nano

nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/portainer.conf

nano /etc/nginx/conf.d/novnc.conf
server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  opc2portainer.51sec.org;

location / {
    proxy_pass       http://172.31.23.170:6080;
    proxy_http_version         1.1;
    proxy_read_timeout 300;
    proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
    proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-PORT $remote_port;
           }
}

Do not forget to restart nginx serviec to take the changes into effect using following command:

service nginx restart

Once nginx service restarted, the configuration will take effect. We will able to access portainer site using sub domain name on port 80 ,  http//opc2portainer.51sec.org

Install CertBot

Based on your Nginx docker version, you might use different installation commands. In my this lab, I am using Debian 10 as OS. 

root@3a4767f0c009:/# cat /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)"
NAME="Debian GNU/Linux"
VERSION_ID="10"
VERSION="10 (buster)"
VERSION_CODENAME=buster
ID=debian
HOME_URL="https://www.debian.org/"
SUPPORT_URL="https://www.debian.org/support"
BUG_REPORT_URL="https://bugs.debian.org/"
root@3a4767f0c009:/# uname -a
Linux 3a4767f0c009 3.10.0-1127.10.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Jun 3 14:28:03 UTC 2020 x86_64 GNU/Linux
root@3a4767f0c009:/#

Log into Nginx docker's command line using either Portainer or VPS command line command : docker exec -it nginx bin/bash

Following three commands can get you install CertBot and configure nginx to use certificate.

apt update
apt install certbot python-certbot-nginx
certbot --nginx

root@3a4767f0c009:/# certbot --nginx

IMPORTANT NOTES:
 - Congratulations! Your certificate and chain have been saved at:
   /etc/letsencrypt/live/opc2portainer.51sec.org/fullchain.pem
   Your key file has been saved at:
   /etc/letsencrypt/live/opc2portainer.51sec.org/privkey.pem
   Your cert will expire on 2021-06-05. To obtain a new or tweaked
   version of this certificate in the future, simply run certbot again
   with the "certonly" option. To non-interactively renew *all* of
   your certificates, run "certbot renew"
 - Your account credentials have been saved in your Certbot
   configuration directory at /etc/letsencrypt. You should make a
   secure backup of this folder now. This configuration directory will
   also contain certificates and private keys obtained by Certbot so
   making regular backups of this folder is ideal.
 - If you like Certbot, please consider supporting our work by:

Now the Nginx portainer.conf configuration file changed to :

root@3a4767f0c009:/etc/nginx/conf.d# cat portainer.conf
server {
    listen       80;
    server_name  opc2portainer.51sec.org;

location / {
    proxy_pass       http://172.31.23.170:9000;
    proxy_redirect             off;
    proxy_http_version         1.1;
    proxy_set_header Upgrade   $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
    proxy_set_header Host      $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
    }

    listen 443 ssl; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/opc2portainer.51sec.org/fullchain.pem; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/opc2portainer.51sec.org/privkey.pem; # managed by Certbot
    include /etc/letsencrypt/options-ssl-nginx.conf; # managed by Certbot
    ssl_dhparam /etc/letsencrypt/ssl-dhparams.pem; # managed by Certbot

}

At this moment, your Portainer url can be accessed from https port 443. Please make sure your VPS firewall opened this https / 443 port to Internet.
