dodotry/squid repository overview

Getting started

Configuration

If you need to make additional changes to the stock squid.conf file, you may do sp by tweaking squid.conf to your preference and then volume mounting it to /etc/squid/squid.conf. Please note that the stock configuration available with the container is set for local access, you may need to tweak it if your network scenario is different.

• Typically

docker run --name squid -d -p 3128:3128 dodotry/squid

• Cache

If you wish to persist the cache, mount a volume to /var/spool/squid (make sure the right AppArmor or SELinux permissions are set at the mountpoint):

docker run --name squid -d -p 3128:3128 --volume /home/foo/squid/cache:/var/spool/squid dodotry/squid

• Logs If you wish to have log persistance, mount a volume to /var/log/squid (again make sure the right AppArmor or SELinux permissions are set at the mountpoint):

docker run --name squid -d -p 3128:3128 --volume /home/foo/squid/logs:/var/log/squid dodotry/squid

• Usage

Once the container has been successfully deployed (assuming you have published port 3128) you should be able to run your traffic through the proxy by using localhost:3128 (on linux), or alternatively the address for your docker machine

You may configure your browser to use that address:port, or at the shell:

export ftp_proxy=http://172.17.42.1:3128
export http_proxy=http://172.17.42.1:3128
export https_proxy=http://172.17.42.1:3128
