Plugin

crowdsec

Implementations ideas (optional)

Hi,

i want to connect crowdsec to my central lapi running on an other host.
but the docker container everytimes registers with the local server and overwrites the local_api_credentials.
what is the way to connect crowdsec to a central lapi?

regards

to answer my own question:

bunkerweb connects directly as a bouncer with the predefined username bunkerweb
So you need to register a new bouncer on the central lapi:

cscli bouncers add bunkerweb

the command will give you an api key, that is the one that you fill into

      - CROWDSEC_API_KEY=

in CROWDSEC_API you fill your central lapi URL

then you just need a local crowdsec that is reading the nginx logs but you won't need a extra crowdsec container
