This plugin transform the response sent by the upstream server on the fly on Kong from json to xml,before returning the response to the client.Because of Nginx’s internals, the Content-Length header will not be set when transforming a response body.

Installation

Recommended:

$ git clone https://github.com/kakascx/apig-response-transform /opt/kong/plugins 
$ cd /opt/kong/plugins/apig-response-transform 
$ luarocks make

Configuration Reference

This plugin is compatible with DB-less mode.

In DB-less mode, you configure Kong Gateway declaratively. Therefore, the Admin API is mostly read-only. The only tasks it can perform are all related to handling the declarative config, including:

  • Setting a target's health status in the load balancer
  • Validating configurations against schemas
  • Uploading the declarative configuration using the /config endpoint

It is recommended to use in dbless mode.

Example plugin configuration

The following examples provide some typical configurations for enabling the apig-response-transform plugin on a service.

Make the following request:

curl -X POST http://localhost:8001/services/SERVICE_NAME|SERVICE_ID/plugins \
    --data "name=apig-response-transform"  \
    --data "config.format=xml"

Replace SERVICE_NAME|SERVICE_ID with the id or name of the service that this plugin configuration will target.

First, create a KongPlugin resource:

apiVersion: configuration.konghq.com/v1
kind: KongPlugin
metadata:
  name: apig-response-transform-example
config: 
  format: xml
plugin: apig-response-transform

Next, apply the KongPlugin resource to a service by annotating the service as follows:

apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: SERVICE_NAME|SERVICE_ID
  labels:
    app: SERVICE_NAME|SERVICE_ID
  annotations:
    konghq.com/plugins: apig-response-transform-example
spec:
  ports:
  - port: 80
    targetPort: 80
    protocol: TCP
    name: SERVICE_NAME|SERVICE_ID
  selector:
    app: SERVICE_NAME|SERVICE_ID

Replace SERVICE_NAME|SERVICE_ID with the id or name of the service that this plugin configuration will target.

Note: The KongPlugin resource only needs to be defined once and can be applied to any service, consumer, or route in the namespace. If you want the plugin to be available cluster-wide, create the resource as a KongClusterPlugin instead of KongPlugin.

Add this section to your declarative configuration file:

plugins:
- name: apig-response-transform
  service: SERVICE_NAME|SERVICE_ID
  config: 
    format: xml

Replace SERVICE_NAME|SERVICE_ID with the id or name of the service that this plugin configuration will target.

The following examples provide some typical configurations for enabling the apig-response-transform plugin on a route.

Make the following request:

curl -X POST http://localhost:8001/routes/ROUTE_NAME|ROUTE_ID/plugins \
  --data "name=apig-response-transform"  \
    --data "config.format=xml"

Replace ROUTE_NAME|ROUTE_ID with the id or name of the route that this plugin configuration will target.

First, create a KongPlugin resource:

apiVersion: configuration.konghq.com/v1
kind: KongPlugin
metadata:
  name: apig-response-transform-example
config: 
  format: xml
plugin: apig-response-transform

Then, apply it to an ingress (route or routes) by annotating the ingress as follows:

apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: ROUTE_NAME|ROUTE_ID
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: kong
    konghq.com/plugins: apig-response-transform-example
spec:
  rules:
  - host: examplehostname.com
    http:
      paths:
      - path: /bar
        backend:
          service:
            name: echo
            port:
              number: 80

Replace ROUTE_NAME|ROUTE_ID with the id or name of the route that this plugin configuration will target.

Note: The KongPlugin resource only needs to be defined once and can be applied to any service, consumer, or route in the namespace. If you want the plugin to be available cluster-wide, create the resource as a KongClusterPlugin instead of KongPlugin.

Add this section to your declarative configuration file:

plugins:
- name: apig-response-transform
  route: ROUTE_NAME
  config: 
    format: xml

Replace ROUTE_NAME|ROUTE_ID with the id or name of the route that this plugin configuration will target.

A plugin which is not associated to any service, route, or consumer is considered global, and will be run on every request. Read the Plugin Reference and the Plugin Precedence sections for more information.

The following examples provide some typical configurations for enabling the apig-response-transform plugin globally.

Make the following request:

curl -X POST http://localhost:8001/plugins/ \
  --data "name=apig-response-transform"  \
    --data "config.format=xml"

Create a KongClusterPlugin resource and label it as global:

apiVersion: configuration.konghq.com/v1
kind: KongClusterPlugin
metadata:
  name: <global-apig-response-transform>
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: kong
  labels:
    global: \"true\"
config: 
  format: xml
plugin: apig-response-transform

Add a plugins entry in the declarative configuration file:

plugins:
- name: apig-response-transform
  config: 
    format: xml
