Get started with Datakit

この機能はtech preview（アルファ品質）としてリリースされており、本番環境では依存すべきではありません。

Enable the WASM engine

In kong.conf, set:

wasm = on

Or export the setting via an environment variable:

KONG_WASM=on

Reload or start Kong Gateway to apply the configuration.

Create a service and a route

decK (YAML)

Admin API

Add the following configuration to a kong.yaml file:

_format_version: "3.0"
services:
- url: http://httpbin.org
  name: my-service
  routes:
  - name: my-route
    paths:
    - /
    strip_path: true

Enable Datakit

Let’s test out Datakit by combining responses from two third party API calls, then returning directly to the client.

decK (YAML)

Admin API

plugins:
- name: datakit
  service: my-service
  config:
    debug: true
    nodes:
    - name: CAT_FACT
      type: call
      url: https://catfact.ninja/fact
    - name: DOG_FACT
      type: call
      url: https://dogapi.dog/api/v1/facts
    - name: JOIN
      type: jq
      inputs:
      - cat: CAT_FACT.body
      - dog: DOG_FACT.body
      jq: |
        {
          "cat_fact": $cat.fact,
          "dog_fact": $dog.facts[0]
        }
    - name: EXIT
      type: exit
      inputs:
      - body: JOIN
      status: 200

Validate

Access the service via the route my-route to test Datakit:

curl -i http://localhost:8000/my-route

You should get a 200 response with a random fact from each fact generator called in the config:
