Use websockets
Estimated reading time: 1 minuteFirst, create an overlay network to isolate and secure service traffic:
$> docker network create -d overlay demo
1se1glh749q1i4pw0kf26mfx5
Next, create the service with websocket endpoints:
$> docker service create \
--name demo \
--network demo \
--detach=false \
--label com.docker.lb.hosts=demo.local \
--label com.docker.lb.port=8080 \
--label com.docker.lb.websocket_endpoints=/ws \
ehazlett/websocket-chat
Note: for this to work, you must have an entry for
demo.local
in your local hosts (i.e./etc/hosts
) file. This uses the browser for websocket communication, so you must have an entry or use a routable domain.
Interlock detects when the service is available and publishes it. Once tasks are running
and the proxy service is updated, the application should be available via http://demo.local
. Open
two instances of your browser and text should be displayed on both instances as you type.
