See traefik example middleware.

Running locally

To run the middleware locally:

(cd test && docker compose up)

Check whoami.localhost for the middleware in action and localhost:8080 for the traefik dashboard.

Setup

Deploy the geoip-api somewhere.

The further instructions will assume the API is runnng at http://geoip-api:8080.

The geoip-api will expose metrics that can be used to visualize where requests are originating from.

  deploy:
    labels:
      - traefik.http.middlewares.mw-geoip.plugin.geoip.geoipApi=http://geoip-api:8080

Add the mw-geoip middleware to all routers that should be intercepted by the geoip middleware.

A working example using local traefik plugins is available in the test folder.
