Soul Gateway Learning Redirect Plugin

Introduction

When the Soul gateway makes a proxy call to the target service, it can use redirect the plug-in to redirect the request. There are two scenarios: one is to redirectUrl configure it as a third-party URL address and directly use 308 it to forward and jump, and the other is redirectUrl to forward the configuration beginning with / to the gateway itself.

Plug-in configuration

In soul-admin – > Plug-in Management – > redirect, set to on.
Dependencies added redirect maven in soul-bootstrap the project's pom.xml files.
Set the selector rule in the soul- admin background. Only the matching request will be forwarded and redirected. Please see for details: Selector and Rule Configurationopen in new window.

Maven dependency

Add the plug-in dependency in the soul-bootstrap project pom.xml file.

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.dromara</groupId>
  <artifactId>soul-spring-boot-starter-plugin-redirect</artifactId>
  <version>${last.version}</version>
</dependency>

Scenes

As the name implies, redirect a plug-in is uri a redirection and redirection of.

Redirect

When we Rule configure the custom path, it should be a reachable service path.
When the request is matched, the service jump will be performed 308 according to the user-defined path Soul gateway.

Gateway self-interface forwarding

When the matching rules are met, the service internally forwards using DispatcherHandler the internal interface.
To realize the gateway's own interface forwarding, we need to start with the prefix in the configuration path /. The specific configuration is shown in the following figure.

Source Code Parsing

Before parsing redirect the redirect source code, it's important to understand that the Soul Gateway is based on the SpringBoot WebFlux implementation, where WebFlux requests are handled by default DispatcherHandler if nothing is configured by default. This is the responsive MVC processing core. Take a look at the initialization:

protected void initStrategies(ApplicationContext context) {
  Map<String, HandlerMapping> mappingBeans = BeanFactoryUtils.beansOfTypeIncludingAncestors(context, HandlerMapping.class, true, false);
  ArrayList<HandlerMapping> mappings = new ArrayList(mappingBeans.values());
  AnnotationAwareOrderComparator.sort(mappings);
  // handlerMapping related
  this.handlerMappings = Collections.unmodifiableList(mappings);
  Map<String, HandlerAdapter> adapterBeans = BeanFactoryUtils.beansOfTypeIncludingAncestors(context, HandlerAdapter.class, true, false);
  // handlerAdapter related
  this.handlerAdapters = new ArrayList(adapterBeans.values());
  AnnotationAwareOrderComparator.sort(this.handlerAdapters);
  Map<String, HandlerResultHandler> beans = BeanFactoryUtils.beansOfTypeIncludingAncestors(context, HandlerResultHandler.class, true, false);
  // resultHandler related
  this.resultHandlers = new ArrayList(beans.values());
  AnnotationAwareOrderComparator.sort(this.resultHandlers);
}

After that, we are familiar with the MVC core processing DispatcherHandler#handle method.

public Mono<Void> handle(ServerWebExchange exchange) {
    return this.handlerMappings == null ? this.createNotFoundError() : Flux.fromIterable(this.handlerMappings).concatMap((mapping) -> {
        return mapping.getHandler(exchange);
    }).next().switchIfEmpty(this.createNotFoundError()).flatMap((handler) -> {
        return this.invokeHandler(exchange, handler);
    }).flatMap((result) -> {
        return this.handleResult(exchange, result);
    });
}

To figure out how to handle it by default DispatcherHandler, let's talk about Soul Gateway, SoulWebHandler which implements the WebHandler interface. And then BeanName replace that previously DispatcherHandler registered default proces handler with the declaration webHandler.

@Bean("webHandler")
public SoulWebHandler soulWebHandler(final ObjectProvider<List<SoulPlugin>> plugins) {
  List<SoulPlugin> pluginList = plugins.getIfAvailable(Collections::emptyList);
  List<SoulPlugin> soulPlugins = pluginList.stream()
    .sorted(Comparator.comparingInt(SoulPlugin::getOrder)).collect(Collectors.toList());
  soulPlugins.forEach(soulPlugin -> log.info("load plugin:[{}] [{}]", soulPlugin.named(), soulPlugin.getClass().getName()));
  return new SoulWebHandler(soulPlugins);
}

So far, we understand that the default request has been SoulWebHandler#handle processed. What if we need to forward it to the gateway itself MVC? The following is DispatcherHandler injected during initialization RedirectPlugin, and then DispatcherHandler distributed according to the specific request. The specific core code is as follows:

@Override
protected Mono<Void> doExecute(final ServerWebExchange exchange, final SoulPluginChain chain,
                               final SelectorData selector, final RuleData rule) {
  final String handle = rule.getHandle();
  final RedirectHandle redirectHandle = GsonUtils.getInstance().fromJson(handle, RedirectHandle.class);
  if (Objects.isNull(redirectHandle) || StringUtils.isBlank(redirectHandle.getRedirectURI())) {
    log.error("uri redirect rule can not configuration: {}", handle);
    return chain.execute(exchange);
  }
  // Handle self-forwarding paths starting with "/"
  if (redirectHandle.getRedirectURI().startsWith(ROOT_PATH_PREFIX)) {
    ServerHttpRequest request = exchange.getRequest().mutate()
      .uri(Objects.requireNonNull(UriUtils.createUri(redirectHandle.getRedirectURI()))).build();
    ServerWebExchange mutated = exchange.mutate().request(request).build();
    return dispatcherHandler.handle(mutated);
  } else {
    // Perform a 308 redirect
    ServerHttpResponse response = exchange.getResponse();
    response.setStatusCode(HttpStatus.PERMANENT_REDIRECT);
    response.getHeaders().add(HttpHeaders.LOCATION, redirectHandle.getRedirectURI());
    return response.setComplete();
  }
}
