Introduction

This project provides a Dockerized version of Squid, a widely-used proxy server. It allows you to quickly set up and deploy a Squid proxy server within a Docker container.

Features

• Easy deployment using Docker
• Customizable configuration
• Efficient caching for improved performance

Usage

1. Pull the Squid Docker Image

docker pull docker pull ghcr.io/prinako/squid-docker:main

2. Run Squid Container

docker run -d --name squid -p 3128:3128 prinako/squid-docker:main

Adjust the port mappings and other options according to your requirements.

3. Configure Client Devices

Configure your client devices to use the Squid proxy. Update proxy settings with the Squid server's IP address and port (e.g., 3128).

Monitoring Logs

Monitor Squid logs by attaching to the running container or inspecting the logs:

docker logs -f squid

Additional Configuration (Optional)

For additional configuration options and customization, refer to the Squid Documentation.

Configuration

You can customize Squid's configuration by mounting a volume with your own configuration file. For example:

docker run -d --name squid -p 3128:3128 -v /path/to/your/squid.conf:/etc/squid/squid.conf prinako/squid-docker:main

Replace /path/to/your/squid.conf with the path to your custom Squid configuration file.

Considerations

• squid relies on ntp, this image uses systemd-timesyncd. maybe tell it to use something more local than the ubuntu time pools?
