Traefik Docker Swarm Routing Documentation This guide will teach you how to attach labels to your containers, to route traffic and load balance with Traefik and Docker.

Traefik & Docker Swarm

A Story of Labels & Containers {: .subtitle }

Swarm

Attach labels to your containers and let Traefik do the rest!

One of the best feature of Traefik is to delegate the routing configuration to the application level. With Docker Swarm, Traefik can leverage labels attached to a service to generate routing rules.

!!! warning "Labels & sensitive data"

We recommend to *not* use labels to store sensitive data (certificates, credentials, etc).
Instead, we recommend to store sensitive data in a safer storage (secrets, file, etc).

Configuration Examples

??? example "Configuring Docker Swarm & Deploying / Exposing one Service"

Enabling the docker provider (Swarm Mode)

```yaml tab="File (YAML)"
providers:
  swarm:
    # swarm classic (1.12-)
    # endpoint: "tcp://127.0.0.1:2375"
    # docker swarm mode (1.12+)
    endpoint: "tcp://127.0.0.1:2377"
```

```toml tab="File (TOML)"
[providers.swarm]
  # swarm classic (1.12-)
  # endpoint = "tcp://127.0.0.1:2375"
  # docker swarm mode (1.12+)
  endpoint = "tcp://127.0.0.1:2377"
```

```bash tab="CLI"
# swarm classic (1.12-)
# --providers.swarm.endpoint=tcp://127.0.0.1:2375
# docker swarm mode (1.12+)
--providers.swarm.endpoint=tcp://127.0.0.1:2377
```

Attach labels to services (not containers) while in Swarm mode (in your Docker compose file).
When there is only one service, and the router does not specify a service,
then that service is automatically assigned to the router.

```yaml
version: "3"
services:
  my-container:
    deploy:
      labels:
        - traefik.http.routers.my-container.rule=Host(`example.com`)
        - traefik.http.services.my-container-service.loadbalancer.server.port=8080
```

!!! important "Labels in Docker Swarm Mode"
    While in Swarm Mode, Traefik uses labels found on services, not on individual containers.
    Therefore, if you use a compose file with Swarm Mode, labels should be defined in the `deploy` part of your service.
    This behavior is only enabled for docker-compose version 3+ ([Compose file reference](https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/compose-file-v3/#labels-1)).

??? example "Specify a Custom Port for the Container"

Forward requests for `http://example.com` to `http://<private IP of container>:12345`:

```yaml
version: "3"
services:
  my-container:
    # ...
    deploy:
      labels:
        - traefik.http.routers.my-container.rule=Host(`example.com`)
        - traefik.http.routers.my-container.service=my-service"
        # Tell Traefik to use the port 12345 to connect to `my-container`
        - traefik.http.services.my-service.loadbalancer.server.port=12345
```

!!! important "Traefik Connecting to the Wrong Port: `HTTP/502 Gateway Error`"
    By default, Traefik uses the lowest exposed port of a container as detailed in
    [Port Detection](../providers/swarm.md#port-detection) of the Swarm provider.

    Setting the label `traefik.http.services.xxx.loadbalancer.server.port`
    overrides this behavior.

??? example "Specifying more than one router and service per container"

Forwarding requests to more than one port on a container requires referencing the service loadbalancer port definition using the service parameter on the router.

In this example, requests are forwarded for `http://example-a.com` to `http://<private IP of container>:8000` in addition to `http://example-b.com` forwarding to `http://<private IP of container>:9000`:

```yaml
version: "3"
services:
  my-container:
    # ...
    deploy:
      labels:
        - traefik.http.routers.www-router.rule=Host(`example-a.com`)
        - traefik.http.routers.www-router.service=www-service
        - traefik.http.services.www-service.loadbalancer.server.port=8000
        - traefik.http.routers.admin-router.rule=Host(`example-b.com`)
        - traefik.http.routers.admin-router.service=admin-service
        - traefik.http.services.admin-service.loadbalancer.server.port=9000
```

Routing Configuration

!!! info "Labels"

- Labels are case-insensitive.
- The complete list of labels can be found in [the reference page](../../reference/dynamic-configuration/docker.md).

General

Traefik creates, for each container, a corresponding service and router.

The Service automatically gets a server per instance of the container, and the router automatically gets a rule defined by defaultRule (if no rule for it was defined in labels).

Service definition

--8<-- "content/routing/providers/service-by-label.md"

??? example "Automatic service assignment with labels"

With labels in a compose file

```yaml
labels:
  - "traefik.http.routers.myproxy.rule=Host(`example.net`)"
  # service myservice gets automatically assigned to router myproxy
  - "traefik.http.services.myservice.loadbalancer.server.port=80"
```

??? example "Automatic service creation and assignment with labels"

With labels in a compose file

```yaml
labels:
  # no service specified or defined and yet one gets automatically created
  # and assigned to router myproxy.
  - "traefik.http.routers.myproxy.rule=Host(`example.net`)"
```

Routers

To update the configuration of the Router automatically attached to the container, add labels starting with traefik.http.routers.<name-of-your-choice>. and followed by the option you want to change.

For example, to change the rule, you could add the label traefik.http.routers.my-container.rule=Host(`example.com`).

Middleware

You can declare pieces of middleware using labels starting with traefik.http.middlewares.<name-of-your-choice>., followed by the middleware type/options.

For example, to declare a middleware redirectscheme named my-redirect, you'd write traefik.http.middlewares.my-redirect.redirectscheme.scheme=https.

More information about available middlewares in the dedicated middlewares section.

!!! warning "The character @ is not authorized in the middleware name."

??? example "Declaring and Referencing a Middleware"

```yaml
services:
  my-container:
    # ...
    deploy:
    labels:
    # Declaring a middleware
    - traefik.http.middlewares.my-redirect.redirectscheme.scheme=https
        # Referencing a middleware
        - traefik.http.routers.my-container.middlewares=my-redirect
```

!!! warning "Conflicts in Declaration"

If you declare multiple middleware with the same name but with different parameters, the middleware fails to be declared.

TCP

You can declare TCP Routers and/or Services using labels.

??? example "Declaring TCP Routers and Services"

```yaml
services:
  my-container:
    # ...
    deploy:

        - "traefik.tcp.routers.my-router.rule=HostSNI(`example.com`)"
        - "traefik.tcp.routers.my-router.tls=true"
        - "traefik.tcp.services.my-service.loadbalancer.server.port=4123"
```

!!! warning "TCP and HTTP"

If you declare a TCP Router/Service, it will prevent Traefik from automatically creating an HTTP Router/Service (like it does by default if no TCP Router/Service is defined).
You can declare both a TCP Router/Service and an HTTP Router/Service for the same container (but you have to do so manually).

```

Specific Provider Options

traefik.enable

- "traefik.enable=true"

You can tell Traefik to consider (or not) the container by setting traefik.enable to true or false.

This option overrides the value of exposedByDefault.

traefik.docker.network

- "traefik.docker.network=mynetwork"

Overrides the default docker network to use for connections to the container.

If a container is linked to several networks, be sure to set the proper network name (you can check this with docker inspect <container_id>), otherwise it will randomly pick one (depending on how docker is returning them).

!!! warning When deploying a stack from a compose file stack, the networks defined are prefixed with stack.

traefik.docker.lbswarm

- "traefik.docker.lbswarm=true"

Enables Swarm's inbuilt load balancer (only relevant in Swarm Mode).

If you enable this option, Traefik will use the virtual IP provided by docker swarm instead of the containers IPs. Which means that Traefik will not perform any kind of load balancing and will delegate this task to swarm.
