Dynamic configuration for adding TLS certificates via Docker

Traefik Traefik v2
1

Is it possible to create a certificate and key, add it to traefik via a volume and then dynamically update traefik with docker using labels to identify their path?

I would like to remove the need to update a toml file with the following:

[[tls.certificates]]
  certFile = "/path/to/domain.cert"
  keyFile = "/path/to/domain.key"

and simply tell traefik about it when I run the docker service.

Hello @JamesGreenaway,

currently, only the file provider is capable of doing what you asked for, as you can see here on the docs.

Sorry, that I cant give you another answer

any idea when they'd start supporting KV stores?

@trajano you can track this here: https://github.com/containous/traefik/projects/3?card_filter_query=kv .

However storing certificates in the KV store has never been production ready and might not make it in 2.0 as explained in Please explain "Distributed Let's Encrypt" feature of TraefikEE .
