HAProxy Ingress controller

Ingress controller implementation for HAProxy loadbalancer.

Build Status Docker Repository on Quay

Releases

HAProxy Ingress images are built by Travis CI and the image is deployed from Travis CI to Quay.io whenever a tag is applied. The latest tag will always point to the latest stable version while canary tag will always point to the latest beta-quality and release-candidate versions.

Before the beta-quality releases, the source code could also be tagged and images deployed. The snapshot tag will always point to the latest tagged version, which could be a release, a beta-quality or a development version.

Usage

Usage docs are maintained on Ingress repository:

Reload strategy

The --reload-strategy command-line argument is used to select which reload strategy HAProxy should use. The following options are available:

  • native: Uses native HAProxy reload option -sf. This is the default option.
  • multibinder: Uses GitHub's multibinder. This link describes how it works.

Configuration

HAProxy Ingress can be configured per ingress resource using annotations, or globally using ConfigMap. It is also possible to change the default template mounting a new template file at /etc/haproxy/template/haproxy.tmpl.

Annotations

The following annotations are supported:

  • [1] only in snapshot tag
Name Data Usage
[1] ingress.kubernetes.io/affinity affinity type -
ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-type "basic" doc
ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-secret secret name doc
ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-realm realm string doc
[1] ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-tls-error-page url doc
ingress.kubernetes.io/auth-tls-secret namespace/secret name doc
ingress.kubernetes.io/proxy-body-size size (bytes) -
ingress.kubernetes.io/secure-backends [true|false] -
ingress.kubernetes.io/secure-verify-ca-secret secret name -
[1] ingress.kubernetes.io/session-cookie-name cookie name -
ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-passthrough [true|false] -
ingress.kubernetes.io/ssl-redirect [true|false] doc
ingress.kubernetes.io/app-root /url doc
ingress.kubernetes.io/whitelist-source-range CIDR -
[1] ingress.kubernetes.io/server-alias domain name or regex -

Affinity

Configure if HAProxy should maintain client requests to the same backend server.

  • ingress.kubernetes.io/affinity: the only supported option is cookie. If declared, clients will receive a cookie with a hash of the server it should be fidelized to.
  • ingress.kubernetes.io/session-cookie-name: the name of the cookie. INGRESSCOOKIE is the default value if not declared.

Note for dynamic-scaling users only: the hash of the server is built based on it's name. When the slots are scaled down, the remaining servers might change it's server name on HAProxy configuration. In order to circumvent this, always configure the slot increment at least as much as the number of replicas of the deployment that need to use affinity. This limitation will be removed when HAProxy version is updated to 1.8.

Server Alias

Creates an alias of the server that annotation belongs to. It'll be using the same backend but different ACL. Alias rules will be checked at the very end of list or rules. It is allowed to be a regex.

Note: ^ and $ cannot be used because they are already included in ACL.

ConfigMap

If using ConfigMap to configure HAProxy Ingress, use --configmap=<namespace>/<configmap-name> argument on HAProxy Ingress deployment. A ConfigMap can be created with kubectl create configmap.

The following parameters are supported:

  • [1] only in snapshot tag

balance-algorithm

Define a load balancing algorithm.

http://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/1.7/configuration.html#4-balance

backend-check-interval

Define the interval between TCP health checks to the backend using inter option.

http://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/1.7/configuration.html#5.2-inter

dynamic-scaling

The dynamic-scaling option defines if backend updates should be made starting a new HAProxy instance that will read the new config file (false), or updating the running HAProxy via a Unix socket (true). Despite the configuration, the config file will stay in sync with in memory config.

If true HAProxy Ingress will create at least backend-server-slots-increment servers on each backend and update them via a Unix socket without reloading HAProxy. Unused servers will stay in a disabled state.

  • dynamic-scaling: Define if dynamic scaling should be used whenever possible
  • backend-server-slots-increment: Configures the minimum number of servers, the size of the increment when growing and the size of the decrement when shrinking of each HAProxy backend

http://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/1.7/management.html#9.3

forwardfor

Define if X-Forwarded-For header should be added always, added if missing or ignored from incomming requests. Default is add which means HAProxy will itself generate a X-Forwarded-For header with client's IP address and remove this same header from incomming requests.

Use ignore to skip any check. ifmissing should be used to add X-Forwarded-For with client's IP address only if this header is not defined. Only use ignore or ifmissing on trusted networks.

http://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/1.7/configuration.html#4-option%20forwardfor

healthz-port

Define the port number HAProxy should listen to in order to answer for health checking requests. Use /healthz as the request path.

http://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/1.7/configuration.html#4-monitor-uri

hsts

Configure HSTS - HTTP Strict Transport Security.

  • hsts: true if HSTS response header should be added
  • hsts-include-subdomains: true if it should apply to subdomains as well
  • hsts-max-age: time in seconds the browser should remember this configuration
  • hsts-preload: true if the browser should include the domain to HSTS preload list

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Strict-Transport-Security

http-log-format

Customize the http log format using log format variables. Default to the HAProxy default log format

https://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/1.7/configuration.html#8.2.4

https-to-http-port

A port number to listen http requests from another load balancer that does the ssl offload.

How it works: HAProxy will define if the request came from a HTTPS connection reading the X-Forwarded-Proto HTTP header or the port number the client used to connect. If the header is https or the port number matches https-to-http-port, HAProxy will behave just like itself did the ssl offload: HSTS header will be provided if configured and no https redirect will be done. There is only one exception: if https-to-http-port is 80, only the header will be checked.

The X-Forwarded-Proto header is optional in the following conditions:

  • The https-to-http-port should not match HTTP port 80; and
  • The load balancer should connect to the same https-to-http-port number, eg cannot have any proxy like Kubernetes' NodePort between the load balancer and HAProxy

tcp-log-format

Customize the tcp log format using log format variables. Default to the HAProxy default log format

https://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/1.7/configuration.html#8.2.4

max-connections

Define the maximum number of concurrent connections. Defaults to 2000 connections, which is also the HAProxy default configuration.

http://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/1.7/configuration.html#5.2-maxconn

proxy-body-size

Define the maximum number of bytes HAProxy will allow on the body of requests. Default is to not check, which means requests of unlimited size. This limit can be changed per ingress resource.

Since 0.4 (currently snapshot) a suffix can be added to the size, so 10m means 10 * 1024 * 1024 bytes. Supported suffix are: k, m and g.

http://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/1.7/configuration.html#7.3.6-req.body_size

ssl-ciphers

Set the list of cipher algorithms used during the SSL/TLS handshake.

http://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/1.7/configuration.html#3.1-ssl-default-bind-ciphers

ssl-dh-default-max-size

Define the maximum size of a temporary DH parameters used for key exchange. Only used if ssl-dh-param isn't provided.

http://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/1.7/configuration.html#tune.ssl.default-dh-param

ssl-dh-param

Define DH parameters file used on ephemeral Diffie-Hellman key exchange during the SSL/TLS handshake.

http://cbonte.github.io/haproxy-dconv/1.7/configuration.html#3.1-ssl-dh-param-file

ssl-options

Define a space-separated list of options on SSL/TLS connections:

  • force-sslv3: Enforces use of SSLv3 only
  • force-tlsv10: Enforces use of TLSv1.0 only
  • force-tlsv11: Enforces use of TLSv1.1 only
  • force-tlsv12: Enforces use of TLSv1.2 only
  • no-sslv3: Disables support for SSLv3
  • no-tls-tickets: Enforces the use of stateful session resumption
  • no-tlsv10: Disables support for TLSv1.0
  • no-tlsv11: Disables support for TLSv1.1
  • no-tlsv12: Disables support for TLSv1.2

ssl-redirect

A global configuration of SSL redirect used as default value if ingress resource doesn't use ssl-redirect annotation. If true HAProxy Ingress sends a 302 redirect to https if TLS is configured.

stats

Configurations of the HAProxy status page:

  • stats-auth: Enable basic authentication with clear-text password - <user>:<passwd>
  • stats-port: Change the port HAProxy should listen to requests
  • stats-proxy-protocol: Define if the stats endpoint should enforce the PROXY protocol

syslog-endpoint

Configure the UDP syslog endpoint where HAProxy should send access logs.

timeout

Define timeout configurations:

  • timeout-client: Maximum inactivity time on the client side
  • timeout-client-fin: Maximum inactivity time on the client side for half-closed connections - FIN_WAIT state
  • timeout-connect: Maximum time to wait for a connection to a backend
  • timeout-http-request: Maximum time to wait for a complete HTTP request
  • timeout-keep-alive: Maximum time to wait for a new HTTP request on keep-alive connections
  • timeout-server: Maximum inactivity time on the backend side
  • timeout-server-fin: Maximum inactivity time on the backend side for half-closed connections - FIN_WAIT state
  • timeout-tunnel: Maximum inactivity time on the client and backend side for tunnels

use-proxy-protocol

Define if HAProxy is behind another proxy that use the PROXY protocol. If true, ports 80 and 443 will enforce the PROXY protocol.

The stats endpoint (defaults to port 1936) has it's own stats-proxy-protocol configuration.
