You might have better luck with container specific reverse-proxy like Traefik[0] - it has builtin Let's Encrypt support with auto-renewal

Moving from running one container to running multiple containers is probably one of the most confusing parts of getting started with Docker
There are a large array of orchestration options and tools - each with their own pros and cons: Swarm, Kubernetes, Mesos, Marathon, Mesosphere, Centurion, Rancher, etc.
Docker 1.12 now having built-in orchestration with Swarm should make this easier[1].

Traefik sounds great! I'm using https://github.com/SteveLTN/https-portal which is a Docker container, and that kind of setup is just complicated. Putting the reverse proxy outside sounds much cleaner.
