How to allow node 18089 port on Tor AND localhost? (monero.town)

I wonder if is possible to use the same port on Tor Service AND localhost in order to connect a block-explorer into a monerod binary setup.

I get the node working and I know the basis at networking or docker compose, I just didn't found how to archive what I want and can't solve trying by myself.

Connection to 127.0.0.1:18089 is not possible and I suspect that's because I'm using the port on Tor Service.

What can I do?

Can you connect locally on 18081? That is the unrestricted RPC port that you should always keep closed to the outside world.

I'm using 18089 restricted and public, can I use this data into my block explorer?

As long as you restrict RPC on 18081 its fine to externally bind, 18089 is just an indicator that its intended for public use.

Edit: Looks like my monerod isnt letting me externally bind to 18081 like it is 18089, maybe you're right or I'm missing a command.

Set the external bind IP to 0.0.0.0 and then use your firewall to block/forward what you need?
