echo

Description

The echo Plugin is to help users understand how they can develop an APISIX Plugin.

This Plugin addresses common functionalities in phases like init, rewrite, access, balancer, header filter, body filter and log.

The echo Plugin is built as an example. It has missing cases and should not be used in production environments.

echo - 图2note

You can fetch the admin_key from config.yaml and save to an environment variable with the following command:

  1. admin_key=$(yq '.deployment.admin.admin_key[0].key' conf/config.yaml | sed 's/"//g')
  1. curl http://127.0.0.1:9180/apisix/admin/routes/1 -H "X-API-KEY: $admin_key" -X PUT -d '
  2. {
  3.     "plugins": {
  4.         "echo": {
  5.             "before_body": "before the body modification "
  6.         }
  7.     },
  8.     "upstream": {
  9.         "nodes": {
  10.             "127.0.0.1:1980": 1
  11.         },
  12.         "type": "roundrobin"
  13.     },
  14.     "uri": "/hello"
  15. }'

Example usage

First, we configure the Plugin as mentioned above. We can then make a request as shown below:

  1. curl -i http://127.0.0.1:9080/hello
  1. HTTP/1.1 200 OK
  2. ...
  3. before the body modification hello world

Delete Plugin

To remove the echo Plugin, you can delete the corresponding JSON configuration from the Plugin configuration. APISIX will automatically reload and you do not have to restart for this to take effect.

  1. curl http://127.0.0.1:9180/apisix/admin/routes/1  \
  2. -H "X-API-KEY: $admin_key" -X PUT -d '
  3. {
  4.     "methods": ["GET"],
  5.     "uri": "/hello",
  6.     "plugins": {},
  7.     "upstream": {
  8.         "type": "roundrobin",
  9.         "nodes": {
  10.             "127.0.0.1:1980": 1
  11.         }
  12.     }
  13. }'
