“Clients in that container won’t trust the cert”. Yeah, there’s the trick.
“service-a.lcl.host:443300“ so when inside the container, won’t that resolve to 127.0.0.1 which is the container internal loopback interface not the docker host’s interface? Hence trying to connect to itself not its sibling.
I’m skimming the docs looking for how “in containers” is handled and so far I can only see a one liner in the release notes. One problem in local environments I keep having and building tricks for is for services inside containers getting certs for other containers. From within the container, resolving to 127.0.0.1 isn’t helpful as that’s the internal loopback not the host.
My experience with visual scripting or coding is that it’s hard for more than one person to work on for anything other than a single screen of complexity. No git merge, so serial development. Hard to understand and tweak for anyone except the creator.
