| To use the binary from a container simply create a script with you preferible container manager. | |
| ``` | |
| cat >/usr/bin/caddy <<EOF | |
| #!/usr/bin/env bash | |

| If you prefer to use Caddy containerized instead of installing it directly on your machine, you'll need to create a wrapper script to execute Caddy commands. This script acts as a bridge, allowing you to run Caddy as if it were installed locally. | |
| **Creating the Wrapper Script** | |
| 1. Create the wrapper script file. You can name it anything (e.g., `caddy-wrapper.sh`) and place it in any directory. Remember the full path to this file, as you'll need it later. | |
| ```bash | |
| touch caddy-wrapper.sh | |
| nano caddy-wrapper.sh # Or your preferred text editor (e.g., vim, code) | |
| ``` | |
| 2. Paste the following content into `caddy-wrapper.sh`: | |
| ```bash | |
| #!/usr/bin/env bash | |
| podman/docker run --rm -i docker.io/caddy:latest caddy "$@" | |
| ``` | |
| * This script uses `podman` or `docker` (whichever is available) to run the `caddy:latest` Docker image. | |
| * `--rm` ensures the container is removed after execution. | |
| * `-i` allows interactive use (for commands like `caddy run`). | |
| * `"$@"` forwards all arguments passed to the wrapper script to the Caddy command within the container. | |
| 3. Make the script executable: | |
| ```bash | |
| chmod +x caddy-wrapper.sh | |
| ``` | |
| **Integrating with VS Code** | |
| 1. Open VS Code's command palette (F1). | |
| 2. Open Workspace or User Settings (File > Preferences > Settings, or Code > Preferences > Settings on macOS). | |
| 3. Search for `caddyfile.executable`. | |
| 4. Set the `caddyfile.executable` setting to the *full path* of your `caddy-wrapper.sh` script. For example: `/path/to/your/script/caddy-wrapper.sh`. | |
| 5. Test the integration. You can trigger Caddy's formatting by using the keyboard shortcut (Shift+Alt+F or Shift+Option+F on macOS), the "Format Document" command (F1 -> Format Document), or by enabling `editor.formatOnSave` in your settings. If the Caddyfile is correctly formatted, the integration is working. If you encounter errors, double-check the path to your wrapper script and ensure it's executable. |

Hello,
Here is a better way than using a script, in the ${SHELL}rc create a function:
caddy(){
podman run --rm \
-v "$PWD":/opt \
-w /opt \
docker.io/caddy:latest caddy "$@"
}
Example:
We have file Caddyfile and want to format:
caddy fmt Caddyfile
{Server Options
auto_https off
}http://dni.watch-dogs.cloud {
reverse_proxy http://127.0.0.1:9999
log {
output file /var/log/caddy/dni.watch-dogs.cloud.log
level ERROR
}
}
Error: Caddyfile:1: Caddyfile input is not formatted; Tip: use '--overwrite' to update your Caddyfile in-place instead of previewing it. Consult '--help' for more options
caddy fmt --overwrite Caddyfile
File formatted and saved.
