A docker container running nginx for reverse proxying connections to other docker containers based on docker environment variables.
This is based on jwilder/nginx-proxy. jwilder's implementation relies on different hostnames, possibly sub-domains.
I only wanted to buy the cheapest SSL certificate possible, which means using URL paths for different services instead of hostnames (and subdomains).
Run it with: docker run -d -p 80:80 -v /var/run/docker.sock:/tmp/docker.sock -t burkemw3/nginx-proxy-path
Start other containers with: docker run -e VIRTUAL_PATH=$foobar ... and access
the containers on http://hostname/foobar.
VIRTUAL_HOST is nothing now. Long live VIRTUAL_PATH.
Using multiple VIRTUAL_PATHs might work. It hasn't been tested. URL
re-writing in the proxied container might get interesting.
VIRTUAL_PORT should work, but hasn't been tested.
