How to dynamic determine route uri at runtime?

[maoyunfei]

I want to determine the uri of the specified route at runtime，maybe depends on parameters or others. How to do it , a example code will be grateful.

[aoslee]

You can write custom GatewayFilte.

sample code:
https://github.com/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-gateway/blob/master/spring-cloud-gateway-sample/src/main/java/org/springframework/cloud/gateway/sample/ThrottleGatewayFilter.java

@Override
 public Mono<Void> filter(ServerWebExchange exchange, GatewayFilterChain chain) {
  ServerHttpRequest request = exchange.getRequest();
  String requestPath = request.getPath().pathWithinApplication().value();
......
}

I found I can write a customer GatewayFilter whose order is before NettyRoutingFilter, in filter method I set GATEWAY_REQUEST_URL_ATTR at runtime to change route uri.

public class CustomerFilter implements GatewayFilter, Ordered {

    @Override
    public int getOrder() {
        return 10001;
    }

    @Override
    public Mono<Void> filter(ServerWebExchange exchange, GatewayFilterChain chain) {
        try {
            exchange.getAttributes().put(GATEWAY_REQUEST_URL_ATTR, new URI("https://www.google.com"));
        } catch (URISyntaxException e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        return chain.filter(exchange);
    }

}

Can someone tell me whether it is wise to do in this way? Any suggestions are grateful!

Actually there are a lot of attributes you can use.
For example I've write a filter to work as zuul.

@Component
public class UriHostPlaceholderFilter extends AbstractGatewayFilterFactory {
    @Override
    public GatewayFilter apply(Object config) {
        return (exchange, chain) -> {
            Route route = exchange.getAttribute(GATEWAY_ROUTE_ATTR); // 获取路由。
            PathMatchInfo variables = exchange.getAttribute(URI_TEMPLATE_VARIABLES_ATTRIBUTE); // 获取路径变量。
            if ((variables == null) || (route == null)) {
                return chain.filter(exchange);
            }
            Map<String, String> uriVariables = variables.getUriVariables();
            URI uri = route.getUri();
            String host = uri.getHost();
            if ((host != null) && uriVariables.containsKey(host)) { // 替换uri中的host。
                host = uriVariables.get(host);
            }
            if (host == null) {
                return chain.filter(exchange);
            }
            URI newUri = UriComponentsBuilder.fromUri(uri).host(host).build().toUri(); // 重构URI。
            Route newRoute = Route.builder()
                    .id(route.getId())
                    .uri(newUri)
                    .order(route.getOrder())
                    .predicate(route.getPredicate())
                    .filters(route.getFilters())
                    .build(); // 重构路由。
            exchange.getAttributes().put(GATEWAY_ROUTE_ATTR, newRoute);
            return chain.filter(exchange);
        };
    }
}

spring:
  cloud:
    gateway:
      discovery:
        locator:
          enabled: true
      routes:
        - id: framework
          predicates:
            - Path=/{application}/**
          uri: lb://application
          filters:
            - StripPrefix=1
            - UriHostPlaceholderFilter

[dave-fl]

How can the filter be setup via RouteLocatorBuilder. It seems uri() is mandatory here.

[spencergibb]

@dave-fl it is currently required. You can put a uri like no://op to show that it doesn't matter. I'm thinking of an alias in the javadsl that would help. Not sure about the properties since this needs to be opt-in.

[dave-fl]

Thank you @spencergibb it seems that the DSL should allow for the AsyncBuilder to be generated after the call to .filters() (without uri()) which it currently does not. Will use the no://op approach for now.

Is exchange.getAttributes().put(GATEWAY_ROUTE_ATTR, newRoute) the suggested approach to set the URI dynamically from the filter?

[spencergibb]

GATEWAY_REQUEST_URL_ATTR is the proper attribute

[dave-fl]

Ok, this works with no://op.

The missing sauce was having to set a value for order greater than RouteToRequestUrlFilter .ROUTE_TO_URL_FILTER_ORDER.

[eagle8625]

@OverRide public GatewayFilter apply(Object config) { return (exchange, chain) -> { Route route = exchange.getAttribute(GATEWAY_ROUTE_ATTR); // 获取路由。 PathMatchInfo variables = exchange.getAttribute(URI_TEMPLATE_VARIABLES_ATTRIBUTE); // 获取路径变量。 if ((variables == null) || (route == null)) { return chain.filter(exchange); } Map<String, String> uriVariables = variables.getUriVariables(); URI uri = route.getUri(); String host = uri.getHost(); if ((host != null) && uriVariables.containsKey(host)) { // 替换uri中的host。 host = uriVariables.get(host); } if (host == null) { return chain.filter(exchange); } URI newUri = UriComponentsBuilder.fromUri(uri).host(host).build().toUri(); // 重构URI。 Route newRoute = Route.builder() .id(route.getId()) .uri(newUri) .order(route.getOrder()) .predicate(route.getPredicate()) .filters(route.getFilters()) .build(); // 重构路由。 exchange.getAttributes().put(GATEWAY_ROUTE_ATTR, newRoute); return chain.filter(exchange); }; }

.predicate(route.getPredicate()) has proteced access, so can not visited except for put under the same package

[pkrishi]

I have a similar requirement and i am able to dynamically create based on input path. I also have to add rewritePath dynamically. How can i use RewritePath within above mentioned code . I don't want to write multiple Rewritepath within my application.yml rather make it dynamic the way i make uri dynamic.
Hope you understand my query and respond asap.

TIA

[pkrishi]

Please see my query and respond @spencergibb

[laugues]

Thank you for all your posts. I have a case not mentionned here : what if we want to replace the lb://maplaceholder by a placeholder value.
I have tried to do this but i'm facing a URISyntaxException because lb://maplaceholder. That's normal because it's is not, but i want to evaluate this lb://maplaceholder, before the processing of RouteToRequestUrlFilter and LoadBalancerClientFilter

@laugues #286 (comment) I hope this will help some!

Hi,

I have a gateway url
https://api-gateway.com/SERVICE-ONE-EUREKA-ID/path/remainingpath
https://api-gateway.com/SERVICE-TWO-EUREKA-ID/path/remainingpath
etc

I want to dynamically call the EUREKA via load balancer. and pass the remaining path using a host predicate.

Here is a implementation that works well for me.

Below is my App.yml
spring: application: name: API-GATEWAY cloud: gateway: routes: - id: common-gateway predicates: - Host= **.api-gateway.com filters: - StripPrefix=1 - UriHostPlaceholderFilter=10001 uri: no://op

Below is my Code for custom filter

`package com.example.apigateway.filters;

import static org.springframework.cloud.gateway.support.ServerWebExchangeUtils.GATEWAY_ORIGINAL_REQUEST_URL_ATTR;
import static org.springframework.cloud.gateway.support.ServerWebExchangeUtils.GATEWAY_REQUEST_URL_ATTR;

import org.springframework.cloud.gateway.filter.OrderedGatewayFilter;
import org.springframework.cloud.gateway.filter.factory.AbstractGatewayFilterFactory;
import org.springframework.http.server.reactive.ServerHttpRequest;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;

@component
public class UriHostPlaceholderFilter extends AbstractGatewayFilterFactory<UriHostPlaceholderFilter.Config> {

public UriHostPlaceholderFilter() {
    super(Config.class);
}

public static class Config {
	
	public Config(){
		
	}
	public Config(int order){
		this.order =order;
	}
    private int order;

	public int getOrder() {
		return order;
	}

	public void setOrder(int order) {
		this.order = order;
	}
}

@Override
public List<String> shortcutFieldOrder() {
    return Arrays.asList("order");
}

@Override
public GatewayFilter apply(Config config) {
	return new OrderedGatewayFilter((exchange, chain) -> {
		String serivceID = "";
		String downStreamPath ="";
		URI uri = exchange.getAttribute(GATEWAY_REQUEST_URL_ATTR);
		LinkedHashSet<URI> originalURI = exchange
				.getRequiredAttribute(GATEWAY_ORIGINAL_REQUEST_URL_ATTR);			
		addOriginalRequestUrl(exchange,  uri);					
		String path = originalURI.stream().findFirst().get().getPath();
		Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("/(?<eurekaSerivceId>[^/]*)/(?<downStreamPath>.*)");
		if (path != null) { 
			Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(path);
			boolean flag = matcher.matches();
			serivceID = matcher.group("eurekaSerivceId");
			downStreamPath = matcher.group("downStreamPath");
		}
		String newurl = "lb://"+serivceID.toUpperCase()+downStreamPath;
		URI newUri =null;
		try {
			newUri = new URI(newurl);
		} catch (URISyntaxException e) {
			// TODO Auto-generated catch block
			e.printStackTrace();
		}		
		
        exchange.getAttributes().put(GATEWAY_REQUEST_URL_ATTR, newUri);			
		return chain.filter(exchange);
	},config.getOrder());
}

}

Is there a way to set the route uri dynamically based on a value in the request body during runtime?

[gangadharkasturi]

Is there a way to set the route uri dynamically based on a value in the request body during runtime?

Even I am looking for the same. Did you find the solution?

[backup01]

@OverRide public GatewayFilter apply(Object config) { return (exchange, chain) -> { Route route = exchange.getAttribute(GATEWAY_ROUTE_ATTR); // 获取路由。 PathMatchInfo variables = exchange.getAttribute(URI_TEMPLATE_VARIABLES_ATTRIBUTE); // 获取路径变量。 if ((variables == null) || (route == null)) { return chain.filter(exchange); } Map<String, String> uriVariables = variables.getUriVariables(); URI uri = route.getUri(); String host = uri.getHost(); if ((host != null) && uriVariables.containsKey(host)) { // 替换uri中的host。 host = uriVariables.get(host); } if (host == null) { return chain.filter(exchange); } URI newUri = UriComponentsBuilder.fromUri(uri).host(host).build().toUri(); // 重构URI。 Route newRoute = Route.builder() .id(route.getId()) .uri(newUri) .order(route.getOrder()) .predicate(route.getPredicate()) .filters(route.getFilters()) .build(); // 重构路由。 exchange.getAttributes().put(GATEWAY_ROUTE_ATTR, newRoute); return chain.filter(exchange); }; }

.predicate(route.getPredicate()) has proteced access, so can not visited except for put under the same package

I faced with the same issue.
And if i won't set the predicate in Route's builder, it says java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: predicate must not be null.
Is there any solution?

[oldfr]

@hnxuruochen ,

Even I am getting error:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: predicate must not be null.

Could you help here?
