Plugin Configuration

Most of the time, it makes sense for your plugin to be configurable to answer all of your users’ needs. Your plugin’s configuration is stored in the data store for Kong to retrieve it and pass it to your handler.lua methods when the plugin is being executed.

The configuration consists of a Lua table in Kong that we call a schema. It contains key/value properties that the user will set when enabling the plugin through the Admin API. Kong provides you with a way of validating the user’s configuration for your plugin.

Your plugin’s configuration is being verified against your schema when a user issues a request to the Admin API to enable or update a plugin on a given Service, Route, or Consumer.

For example, a user performs the following request:

curl -X POST http://localhost:8001/services/<service-name-or-id>/plugins \
  -d "name=my-custom-plugin" \
  -d "config.foo=bar"

If all properties of the config object are valid according to your schema, then the API would return 201 Created and the plugin would be stored in the database along with its configuration:

{
  foo = "bar"
}

If the configuration is not valid, the Admin API would return 400 Bad Request and the appropriate error messages.

Module

kong.plugins.<plugin_name>.schema

schema.lua specifications

This module is to return a Lua table with properties that will define how your plugins can later be configured by users. Available properties are:

Property name	Lua type	Description
`name`	`string`	Name of the plugin, e.g. `key-auth`.
`fields`	`table`	Array of field definitions.
`entity_checks`	`function`	Array of conditional entity level validation checks.

All the plugins inherit some default fields which are:

Field name	Lua type	Description
`id`	`string`	Auto-generated plugin id.
`name`	`string`	Name of the plugin, e.g. `key-auth`.
`created_at`	`number`	Creation time of the plugin configuration (seconds from epoch).
`route`	`table`	Route to which plugin is bound, if any.
`service`	`table`	Service to which plugin is bound, if any.
`consumer`	`table`	Consumer to which plugin is bound when possible, if any.
`protocols`	`table`	The plugin will run on specified protocol(s).
`enabled`	`boolean`	Whether or not the plugin is enabled.
`tags`	`table`	The tags for the plugin.

In most of the cases you can ignore most of those and use the defaults. Or let the user specify value when enabling a plugin.

Here is an example of a potential schema.lua file (with some overrides applied):

local typedefs = require "kong.db.schema.typedefs"


return {
  name = "<plugin-name>",
  fields = {
    {
      -- this plugin will only be applied to Services or Routes
      consumer = typedefs.no_consumer
    },
    {
      -- this plugin will only run within Nginx HTTP module
      protocols = typedefs.protocols_http
    },
    {
      config = {
        type = "record",
        fields = {
          -- Describe your plugin's configuration's schema here.        
        },
      },
    },
  },
  entity_checks = {
    -- Describe your plugin's entity validation rules
  },
}

Describing your configuration schema

The config.fields property of your schema.lua file describes the schema of your plugin’s configuration. It is a flexible array of field definitions where each field is a valid configuration property for your plugin, describing the rules for that property. For example:

{
  name = "<plugin-name>",
  fields = {
    config = {
      type = "record",
      fields = {
        {
          some_string = {
            type = "string",
            required = false,
          },
        },
        {
          some_boolean = {
            type = "boolean",
            default = false,
          },
        },
        {
          some_array = {
            type = "array",
            elements = {
              type = "string",
              one_of = {
                "GET",
                "POST",
                "PUT",
                "DELETE",
              },
            },
          },
        },
      },
    },
  },
}

Here is the list of some common (not all) accepted rules for a property (see the fields table above for examples):

Rule	Description
`type`	The type of a property.
`required`	Whether or not the property is required
`default`	The default value for the property when not specified
`elements`	Field definition of `array` or `set` elements.
`keys`	Field definition of `map` keys.
`values`	Field definition of `map` values.
`fields`	Field definition(s) of `record` fields.

There are many more, but the above are commonly used.

You can also add field validators, to mention a few:

Rule	Description
`between`	Checks that the input number is between allowed values.
`eq`	Checks the equality of the input to allowed value.
`ne`	Checks the inequality of the input to allowed value.
`gt`	Checks that the number is greater than given value.
`len_eq`	Checks that the input string length is equal to the given value.
`len_min`	Checks that the input string length is at least the given value.
`len_max`	Checks that the input string length is at most the given value.
`match`	Checks that the input string matches the given Lua pattern.
`not_match`	Checks that the input string doesn’t match the given Lua pattern.
`match_all`	Checks that the input string matches all the given Lua patterns.
`match_none`	Checks that the input string doesn’t match any of the given Lua patterns.
`match_any`	Checks that the input string matches any of the given Lua patterns.
`starts_with`	Checks that the input string starts with a given value.
`one_of`	Checks that the input string is one of the accepted values.
`contains`	Checks that the input array contains the given value.
`is_regex`	Checks that the input string is a valid regex pattern.
`custom_validator`	A custom validation function written in Lua.

There are some additional validators, but you get a good idea how you can specify validation rules on fields from the above table.

Examples

This schema.lua file is for the key-auth plugin:

-- schema.lua
local typedefs = require "kong.db.schema.typedefs"


return {
  name = "key-auth",
  fields = {
    {
      consumer = typedefs.no_consumer
    },
    {
      protocols = typedefs.protocols_http
    },
    {
      config = {
        type = "record",
        fields = {
          {
            key_names = {
              type = "array",
              required = true,
              elements = typedefs.header_name,
              default = {
                "apikey",
              },
            },
          },
          {
            hide_credentials = {
              type = "boolean",
              default = false,
            },
          },
          {
            anonymous = {
              type = "string",
              uuid = true,
            },
          },
          {
            key_in_body = {
              type = "boolean",
              default = false,
            },
          },
          {
            run_on_preflight = {
              type = "boolean",
              default = true,
            },
          },
        },
      },
    },
  },
}

Hence, when implementing the access() function of your plugin in handler.lua and given that the user enabled the plugin with the default values, you’d have access to:

-- handler.lua

local CustomHandler = {
  VERSION  = "1.0.0",
  PRIORITY = 10,
}

local kong = kong

function CustomHandler:access(config)

  kong.log.inspect(config.key_names)        -- { "apikey" }
  kong.log.inspect(config.hide_credentials) -- false
end


return CustomHandler

Note that the above example uses the kong.log.inspect function of the Plugin Development Kit to print out those values to the Kong logs.

A more complex example, which could be used for an eventual logging plugin:

-- schema.lua
local typedefs = require "kong.db.schema.typedefs"


return {
  name = "my-custom-plugin",
  fields = {
    {
      config = {
        type = "record",
        fields = {
          {
            environment = {
              type = "string",
              required = true,
              one_of = {
                "production",
                "development",
              },
            },
          },
          {
            server = {
              type = "record",
              fields = {
                {
                  host = typedefs.host {
                    default = "example.com",
                  },
                },
                {
                  port = {
                    type = "number",
                    default = 80,
                    between = {
                      0,
                      65534
                    },
                  },
                },  
              },
            },
          },
        },
      },
    },
  },
}

Such a configuration will allow a user to post the configuration to your plugin as follows:

curl -X POST http://localhost:8001/services/<service-name-or-id>/plugins \
  -d "name=my-custom-plugin" \
  -d "config.environment=development" \
  -d "config.server.host=http://localhost"

And the following will be available in handler.lua:

-- handler.lua

local CustomHandler = {
  VERSION  = "1.0.0",
  PRIORITY = 10,
}

local kong = kong

function CustomHandler:access(config)

  kong.log.inspect(config.environment) -- "development"
  kong.log.inspect(config.server.host) -- "http://localhost"
  kong.log.inspect(config.server.port) -- 80
end


return CustomHandler

You can also see a real-world example of schema in the Key-Auth plugin source code.
