GenProxy Configuration

GenProxy service deals with reverse-proxying HTTP, HTTPS, HTTP/2, Websocket and gRPC requests to the desired application's IPv4 address and port based on the hostname

Info

GenProxy ⚡ automatically creates a reverse-proxy entry for Master 🌪 (if deployed) pointing to its IPv4 address and port

Default

The following section deals with the configuration of GenProxy

##############################
#   GenProxy Configuration   #
##############################

[services.genproxy]
# Time Interval (in seconds) in which `GenProxy` updates its
# `Reverse-Proxy Record Storage` by polling the central registry-server.
record_update_interval = 15
deploy = false  # Deploy GenProxy?
port = 80

Tip

You can reduce the value of record_update_interval parameter in the above configuration if you need changes in your ecosystem to propagate faster but this will in turn increase the load on the Redis central registry server so choose wisely

Warning

GenProxy usually runs on port 80, hence the Gasper binary must be executed with root privileges in Linux systems

GenProxy with SSL

The following section deals with configuring GenProxy with SSL support for HTTPS

# Configuration for using SSL with `GenProxy`.
[services.genproxy.ssl]
plugin = false  # Use SSL with GenProxy?
port = 443
certificate = "/home/user/fullchain.pem"  # Certificate Location
private_key = "/home/user/privkey.pem"  # Private Key Location

The certificate and private key in the above configuration should be configured for all sub-domains based on the domain parameter in the configuration file

Configuration Example

If the domain parameter is sdslabs.co then the certificate and private key should be configured for the following subdomains *.sdslabs.co and *.*.sdslabs.co

Warning

GenProxy with SSL usually runs on port 443, hence the Gasper binary must be executed with root privileges in Linux systems
