pattern-proxy

Choose a backend server, based on a regex pattern match of your subdomain.
Simple env var configuration.

Inspired by robszumski/k8s-service-proxy

Configuration

Every proxy rule consist of three or four env variables:

• RULE_1_MODE: <mode>
• RULE_1_PATTERN: <regex pattern> (see nginx regex names)
• RULE_1_TARGET: <target with usage of pattern variables>
• RULE_1_TARGET_HOST_HEADER: <(Optional) modified host header, defaults to TARGET>

Example:

RULE_1_MODE: 'HTTP'
RULE_1_PATTERN: '(?<service>.+).ab.127-0-0-1.nip.io'
RULE_1_TARGET: 'https://$service.ab.example.com'

RULE_2_MODE: 'HTTP'
RULE_2_PATTERN: '(?<service>.+).xy.127-0-0-1.nip.io'
RULE_2_TARGET: 'https://$service.xy.example.com'
RULE_2_TARGET_HOST_HEADER: '$service.modified-host.example.com'

This creates two rules.
The following example requests will get the shown proxy actions:

• http://hello.ab.127-0-0-1.nip.io will proxy pass to
  https://hello.ab.example.com
• http://world.xy.127-0-0-1.nip.io will proxy pass to
  https://world.xy.example.com
  but send the host header world.modified-host.example.com

Currently only mode HTTP is implemented

Run with Docker

See docker-compose.yml for a docker-compose configuration example.

Be sure to escape all $ with a $$ inside your env vars. Otherwise docker-compose will try to replace them

Or run without compose:

  docker run -p 80:80 --name pattern-proxy \
    -e RULE_1_MODE=HTTP \
    -e RULE_1_PATTERN='(?<service>.+).ab.127-0-0-1.nip.io' \
    -e RULE_1_TARGET='https://$service.ab.example.com' \
    kekru/pattern-proxy:v0.1.1

Endpoints

Proxies modes that should be supported:

• HTTP proxy pass
• HTTPS proxy pass
• TLS pass through (non terminating)
• Forward TCP (terminating)

Currently only HTTP proxy pass is implemented

For more information about TLS routing see Nginx TLS SNI routing, based on subdomain pattern

Run Tests

Tests are written in JUnit with Testcontainers and can be run with Maven or with Docker-Compose

cd test
