Hi, I am Noob to Docker and Nginx. But I'd like to be able to open Node-RED through port 8080 (localhost:8080) with a Docker container served by NGINX. Could anyone help me?  
Thank you so much in advance!

in addition to my previous post you can also consider [traefik](https://containo.us/traefik/) instead of nginx.
