Docker
The Ingressive Connector is distributed as a container image that you can run using your preferred container engine.
- Not using containers? We recommend using Podman, as it’s light weight and Docker compatible.
- Using Kubernetes? Check out the Ingress Controller documentation.
Getting Started
To start routing your services using the container image:
- Open the Ingressive Console
- Click Connectors in the side bar.
- Give your connector an ID and a name.

- Use the provided Docker Compose configuration to install the connector
- The Console will see when the Connector has connected to the Ingressive network
- Add a Service to your Connector
- Expand the Sites section to route a Site to a Connector Service
Troubleshooting
Can’t Connect to host.docker.internal
By default, many container engines don’t configure access to the host.
You may need to modify your Docker Compose file on certain platforms.
services:
connector:
extra_hosts:
- "host.docker.internal:host-gateway"
Podman Compose uses host.containers.internal by default.
