Mesh HTTP Route
This policy uses new policy matching algorithm. It’s recommended to migrate from TrafficRoute. See “Interactions with
TrafficRoute
” section for more information.
The MeshHTTPRoute
policy allows altering and redirecting HTTP requests
depending on where the request is coming from and where it’s going to.
TargetRef support matrix
If you don’t understand this table you should read matching docs.
Configuration
Unlike others outbound policies MeshHTTPRoute
doesn’t contain default
directly in the to
array.
The default
section is nested inside rules
, so the policy structure looks like this:
spec:
to:
- targetRef: {...}
rules:
- matches: [...] # various ways to match an HTTP request (path, method, query)
default: # configuration applied for the matched HTTP request
filters: [...]
backendRefs: [...]
Remember to tag your
Service
ports withappProtocol: http
to use them in aMeshHTTPRoute
!
Gateways
In order to route HTTP traffic for a MeshGateway, you need to target the
MeshGateway in spec.targetRef
and set spec.to[].targetRef.kind: Mesh
.
Interactions with MeshTCPRoute
MeshHTTPRoute
takes priority over MeshTCPRoute
when a proxy is targeted by both and the matching MeshTCPRoute
is ignored.
Interactions with TrafficRoute
MeshHTTPRoute
takes priority over TrafficRoute
when a proxy is targeted by both policies.
All legacy policies like Retry
, TrafficLog
, Timeout
etc. only match on routes defined by TrafficRoute
.
All new recommended policies like MeshRetry
, MeshAccessLog
, MeshTimeout
etc. match on routes defined by MeshHTTPRoute
and TrafficRoute
.
If you don’t use legacy policies, it’s recommended to remove any existing TrafficRoute
.
Otherwise, it’s recommended to migrate to new policies and then removing TrafficRoute
.
Examples
Traffic split
We can use MeshHTTPRoute
to split an HTTP traffic between different MeshServices
implementing A/B testing or canary deployments.
If we want to split traffic between v1
and v2
versions of the same service,
first we have to create MeshServices backend-v1
and backend-v2
that select
backend application instances according to the version.
Traffic modifications
We can use MeshHTTPRoute
to modify outgoing requests, by setting new path
or changing request and response headers.
Here is an example of a MeshHTTPRoute
that adds x-custom-header
with value xyz
when frontend
tries to consume backend
.
Traffic mirror
MeshHTTPRoute
can mirror a fraction of requests to another service.
This can be useful when testing a new version of the app with the production payload without
interrupting real users.
Merging
When several MeshHTTPRoute
policies target the same data plane proxy they’re merged.
Similar to the new policies the merging order is determined by
the top level targetRef.
The difference is in spec.to[].rules
.
Kong Mesh treats rules
as a key-value map
where matches
is a key and default
is a value. For example MeshHTTPRoute policies:
# MeshHTTPRoute-1
rules:
- matches: # key-1
- path:
type: Exact
name: /orders
method: GET
default: CONF_1 # value
- matches: # key-2
- path:
type: Exact
name: /payments
method: POST
default: CONF_2 # value
---
# MeshHTTPRoute-2
rules:
- matches: # key-3
- path:
type: Exact
name: /orders
method: GET
default: CONF_3 # value
- matches: # key-4
- path:
type: Exact
name: /payments
method: POST
default: CONF_4 # value
merged in the following list of rules:
rules:
- matches:
- path:
type: Exact
name: /orders
method: GET
default: merge(CONF_1, CONF_3) # because 'key-1' == 'key-3'
- matches:
- path:
type: Exact
name: /payments
method: POST
default: merge(CONF_2, CONF_4) # because 'key-2' == 'key-4'
