Request Transformer Advanced

For example, configure this plugin on a service by making the following request:

curl -X POST http://{HOST}:8001/services/{SERVICE}/plugins \
    --data "name=request-transformer-advanced" 

SERVICE is 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: <request-transformer-advanced-example>
config:
  <optional_parameter>: <value>
plugin: request-transformer-advanced

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

apiVersion: v1
kind: Service
metadata:
  name: {SERVICE}
  labels:
    app: {SERVICE}
  annotations:
    konghq.com/plugins: <request-transformer-advanced-example>
spec:
  ports:
  - port: 80
    targetPort: 80
    protocol: TCP
    name: {SERVICE}
  selector:
    app: {SERVICE}

{SERVICE} is the id or name of the service that this plugin configuration will target.

For example, configure this plugin on a service by adding this section to your declarative configuration file:

plugins:
- name: request-transformer-advanced
  service: {SERVICE}
  config:

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

apiVersion: networking/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: {ROUTE}
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: kong
    konghq.com/plugins: <request-transformer-advanced-example>
spec:
  rules:
  - host: examplehostname.com
    http:
      paths:
      - path: /bar
        backend:
          serviceName: echo

$ curl -X POST http://{HOST}:8001/consumers/{CONSUMER}/plugins \
    --data "name=request-transformer-advanced" 

CONSUMER is the id or username of the consumer that this plugin configuration will target.

You can combine consumer.id, service.id, or route.id in the same request, to further narrow the scope of the plugin.

First, create a KongPlugin resource:

apiVersion: configuration.konghq.com/v1
kind: KongPlugin
metadata:
  name: <request-transformer-advanced-example>
config:
  <optional_parameter>: <value>
plugin: request-transformer-advanced

Then, apply it to a consumer by annotating the KongConsumer resource as follows:

apiVersion: configuration.konghq.com/v1
kind: KongConsumer
metadata:
  name: {CONSUMER}
  annotations:
    konghq.com/plugins: <request-transformer-advanced-example>
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: kong

For example, configure this plugin globally with:

$ curl -X POST http://{HOST}:8001/plugins/ \
    --data "name=request-transformer-advanced" 

Create a KongClusterPlugin resource and label it as global:

apiVersion: configuration.konghq.com/v1
kind: KongClusterPlugin
metadata:
  name: <global-request-transformer-advanced>
  annotations:
    kubernetes.io/ingress.class: kong
  labels:
    global: \"true\"
config:
  <optional_parameter>: <value>
