Set Up the Project

1. Create a Project Folder

First, create a new folder in your desired location, which will be used to store the Docker configuration files:

mkdir meting-api
cd meting-api

2. Create the Docker Compose File

In the meting-api folder, create a file named docker-compose.yml and paste the following content:

version: '3.8'

services:
  meting:
    image: intemd/meting-api:latest
    container_name: meting
    ports:
      - "3000:3000"
    restart: always

3. Save the File

Make sure the docker-compose.yml file has been saved correctly.

Run Docker Compose

In the directory containing the docker-compose.yml file, open a terminal or command-line tool and run the following command to start your Meting-API container:

docker-compose up -d

This command starts the Meting-API service in the background.

Configure Reverse Proxy Rules

Add the following rules to your reverse proxy configuration file

location /meting/ {
    proxy_pass http://localhost:3000/;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $scheme://$host:$server_port/meting;
}
