## check dependencies
if you have dependencies on external libraries , check the dependent items . if your plugin needs to use shared memory , it
needs to declare in __bin/apisix__ , for example :
```nginx
lua_shared_dict plugin-limit-req 10m;
lua_shared_dict plugin-limit-count 10m;
lua_shared_dict prometheus-metrics 10m;
lua_shared_dict plugin-limit-conn 10m;
lua_shared_dict upstream-healthcheck 10m;
lua_shared_dict worker-events 10m;
# for openid-connect plugin
lua_shared_dict discovery 1m; # cache for discovery metadata documents
lua_shared_dict jwks 1m; # cache for JWKs
lua_shared_dict introspection 10m; # cache for JWT verification results
```
The plugin itself provides the init method . It is convenient for plugins to perform some initialization after
the plugin is loaded .
Note : if the dependency of some plugin needs to be initialized when Nginx start , you may need to add logic to the initialization
method "http_init" in the file __Lua/apifix.lua__ , And you may need to add some processing on generated part of Nginx
configuration file in __bin/apisix__ file . but it is easy to have an impact on the overall situation according to the
existing plugin mechanism, we do not recommend this unless you have a complete grasp of the code .
## name and config
determine the name and priority of the plugin , and add to conf/config.yaml . For example , for the key-auth plugin ,
you need to specify the plugin name in the code (the name is the unique identifier of the plugin and cannot be
duplicate) , you can see the code in file "__lua/apisix/plugins/key-auth.lua__" :
```lua
local plugin_name = "key-auth"
local _M = {
version = 0.1,
priority = 2500,
type = 'auth',
name = plugin_name,
schema = schema,
}
```
Note : The priority of the new plugin cannot be the same as the priority of any existing plugin.
in the "__conf/config.yaml__" configuration file , the enabled plugins (all specified by plugin name) are listed .
```yaml
plugins: # plugin list
- example-plugin
- limit-req
- limit-count
- limit-conn
- key-auth
- prometheus
- node-status
- jwt-auth
- zipkin
- ip-restriction
- grpc-transcode
- serverless-pre-function
- serverless-post-function
- openid-connect
- proxy-rewrite
- redirect
```
Note : the order of the plugins is not related to the order of execution .
## schema and check
Write [Json Schema](https://json-schema.org) descriptions and check functions. similarly , take the key-auth plugin as an example to see its
configuration data :
```json
"key-auth" : {
"key" : "auth-one"
}
```
The configuration data of the plugin is relatively simple . Only one attribute named key is supported . Let's look
at its schema description :
```lua
local schema = {
type = "object",
properties = {
key = {type = "string"},
}
}
```
at the same time, we need to implement the __check_schema(conf)__ method to complete the specification verification .
```lua
function _M.check_schema(conf)
return core.schema.check(schema, conf)
end
```
Note: the project has provided the public method "__core.schema.check__" , which can be used directly to complete JSON
verification .
## choose phase to run
determine which phase to run , generally access or rewrite . if you don't know the Openresty life cycle , it's
recommended to know it in advance . key-auth is an authentication plugin , as long as the authentication is completed
before the business response after the request comes in . The plugin can be executed in the rewrite and access phases ,
in the project, the authentication logic is implemented in the rewrite phase . Generally, IP access and interface
permission are completed in the access phase .
## implement the logic
Write the logic of the plugin in the corresponding phase .
## write test case
for functions , write and improve the test cases of various dimensions , do a comprehensive test for your plugin ! The
test cases of plugins are all in the "__t/plugin__" directory. You can go ahead to find out . the test framework
[****test-nginx****](https://github.com/openresty/test-nginx) adopted by the project. a test case, .t file is usually
divided into prologue and data parts by \__data\__ . Here we will briefly introduce the data part, that is, the part
of the real test case . For example, the key-auth plugin :
```perl
=== TEST 1: sanity
--- config
location /t {
content_by_lua_block {
local plugin = require("apisix.plugins.key-auth")
local ok, err = plugin.check_schema({key = 'test-key'})
if not ok then
ngx.say(err)
end
ngx.say("done")
}
}
--- request
GET /t
--- response_body
done
--- no_error_log
[error]
```
a test case consists of three parts :
- __Program code__ : configuration content of Nginx location
- __Input__ : http request information
- __Output check__ : status, header, body, error log check
when we request __/t__ , which config in the configuration file , the Nginx will call "__content_by_lua_block__" instruction to
complete the Lua script, and finally return. The assertion of the use case is response_body return "done",
"__no_error_log__" means to check the "__error.log__" of Nginx. There must be no ERROR level record .
### Attach the test-nginx execution process:
According to the path we configured in the makefile and some configuration items at the front of each __.t__ file, the
framework will assemble into a complete nginx.conf file. "__t/servroot__" is the working directory of Nginx and start the
Nginx instance. according to the information provided by the test case, initiate the http request and check that the
return items of HTTP include HTTP status, HTTP response header, HTTP response body and so on .
