Installation of Container Manager Portainer behind Traefik
Set up the container manager Portainer behind Traefik as reverse proxy. Manage your Docker containers conveniently via the web interface from anywhere.
I generally prefer to control my Docker containers directly via my server or use Lazydocker for visual help. However, sometimes (especially on the road) it is also convenient not to have to establish an SSH connection to the server in order to manage certain containers or view the logs. This is where Portainer comes into play.
Portainer | Open Source Container Management GUI for Kubernetes, Docker, Swarm Portainer is the definitive open source container management GUI for Kubernetes, Docker, Swarm and ACI.
Traefik should be set up as a reverse proxy for my configuration file, as described here. Then we need a folder for the data and the Docker-Compose file.
cd ~/docker
mkdir appdata/portainer/data -p
nano docker-compose-portainer.ymlWe add the following text to this file.
version: "3.7"

docker-compose -f docker-compose-portainer.yml up -dDone. Portainer should now be visible under our Portainer subdomain.
An update to a later release can also be carried out very easily.
docker-compose -f docker-compose-portainer.yml pull
docker-compose -f docker-compose-portainer.yml down
docker-compose -f docker-compose-portainer.yml up -d
