OpenResty Reverse Proxy

This playbook was written to provide a quick proxy to a downstream service using OpenResty. The proxy had to hide the downstream headers by rewriting or removing headers and also provide multiple HTTP Basic Auth credentials to clients whilst sharing one set of credentials when calling the other service.

It provides examples of;

  • Installing OpenResty by building from source on the remote machines
  • Setting up HTTP basic auth
  • Removing headers with OpenResty

Run

$  ansible-playbook -i <your inventory file> playbooks/openresty.yml

Adding additional credentials

Add a new element to the list in playbooks/openresty.yml

Testing

The following two commands should be equivalent;

$ curl -i https://yourdomain.com/test \
	-X PUT \
	-u XXXXXXXXXX:YYYYYYYYY \
	-H 'Content-Type:application/json' \
	-d '{"key": "value"}'

$ curl -i 'https://otherservice.com/test' \
	-X PUT \
	-u username:password  
	-H "Content-Type: application/json"
	-d '{"key": "value"}'
