HTTP API GATEWAY

Direct Gateway

Requests will be directly redirect to the Service set in the URI.
For example, given the configuration

gateway:
  direct: true

• {host}/api/my-service/foo/bar will be proxied to {my-service-endpoint}/foo/bar
• {host}/api/my-service/my-endpoint will be proxied to {my-service-endpoint}/my-endpoint

Routed Gateway

Requests will be re-routed based on configured routes and context.
For example, given the configuration

gateway:
  direct: false
  routes:
    my-service:
      service-id: my-service-id
      mapping:
        - route: foo-bar
          context: /foo/bar
        - route: my-endpoint
    some-remote-application:
       uri: https://example.com
       mapping:
          - route: example

• {host}/api/foo-bar will be proxied to {service-endpoint}/foo/bar
• {host}/api/my-endpoint will be proxied to {service-endpoint}/my-endpoint
• {host}/api/example will be proxied to https://example.com
