Traefik template not saving cert

[dpisano]

I have been using the Traefik compose file generated by boilerplate and I do have the volume mapped to /var/traefik/certs/. I recently noticed that volume is empty. Some digging into the issuing date of the certificates it seems like traefik is getting new ones every time it starts. Would something like --certificatesresolvers.cloudflare.acme.storage=/var/traefik/certs/acme.json need to be added to address this?

With #1562 seems to have changed a couple of things with the traefik template.
The acompaning yaml files, like the traefik.yaml that contained the setting for certificate storage, have been removed.
Some of the settings where included as commands in the compose file, but most are missing.

I have been using the yaml files prior to release 0.1.0 (note they are in Jinja):
https://github.com/ChristianLempa/boilerplates/tree/65d315530633359f09e0a97e0645222cd273817e/library/compose/traefik/config

using yaml files you would define something like this in a traefik.yaml

certificatesresolvers:
  cloudflare:
    acme:
      email: example@example.com
      storage: /var/traefik/certs/acme.json

and then load that yaml something like this

services:
  traefik:
    image: traefik:v3.6
    volumes:
      - /put-path-here/traefik.yaml:/etc/traefik/traefik.yaml:ro

hope that helps until this issue is resolved

Thanks for that. I have been thinking about moving to the config file to fix some other problems that I have been having.

I did do some testing and It look like adding -certificatesresolvers.cloudflare.acme.storage=/var/traefik/certs/acme.json does fix it.
