Just use nginx image to create container,**do remember set net "host" **which will make your container share same address and port with host machine.mount nginx.conf file and config proxy table.for example:

docker command:

docker run --name http-proxy -v /host/nginx.conf:/etc/nginx/nginx.conf --net host -itd --restart always nginx

nginx.conf:

server {
  listen 80;
  location /app1 {
    proxy_pass YOUR_APP1_URL;
  }
  location /app2 {
    proxy_pass YOUR_APP2_URL;
  }
}
