    Description

This template runs my experimental traefik server for evaluating if i move to it from handcrafted nginx proxy.
State Considerations for SWARM

traefik requires a static configuration - you need to pick either file based on command line based (or all commands need to be in your stack).
you cannot mix these - for example if you put some settigs in a file doing additonal static config via command line then things kike env vars will be ignored
i chose to put the static config in a traefik.yml file this seems to be considerd best practice in 2.6 by some
i also configured a dynamic files folder - this is for aything that can't or shouldn't be configured in a docker file (middlewares, non-docker related routers etc)
Network Considerations

This need to publish all router endpoints and a port for the web interface.
Note: in a swarm the normal port detection function of the docker provider doesn't work and ports need to be explicitly published and the proxy port defined in the docker (like you see)
Placement Considerations

None, by default this template will result in a single replica.
This is for home network so no addtional scale or redundancy needed in my usecase.

Traefik docker swarm config - I used portainer to create and maintain this file, it is called in the stack above.

This is the basic auth file - i place this in the file provider location as it mean i can add/remove users without needed to restart the container
http:
  middlewares:
    basic-auth:
      basicAuth:
        users:
          - "username:htpasswd-hash"

at this time i am not posting my oauth2 config as i have yet to get this fully wokring with traefik
