Examples

Enable the plugin

1: enable the proxy-mirror plugin for a specific route :

curl http://127.0.0.1:9080/apisix/admin/routes/1  -H 'X-API-KEY: edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1' -X PUT -d '
{
    "plugins": {
        "proxy-mirror": {
           "host": "http://127.0.0.1:9797"
        }
    },
    "upstream": {
        "nodes": {
            "127.0.0.1:1999": 1
        },
        "type": "roundrobin"
    },
    "uri": "/hello"
}'

Test plugin：

$ curl http://127.0.0.1:9080/hello -i
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
Content-Length: 12
Connection: keep-alive
Server: APISIX web server

hello world

Since the specified mirror address is 127.0.0.1:9797, so to verify whether this plugin is in effect, we need to confirm on the service with port 9797. For example, we can start a simple server: python -m SimpleHTTPServer 9797

Disable Plugin

Remove the corresponding JSON in the plugin configuration to disable the plugin immediately without restarting the service:

curl http://127.0.0.1:9080/apisix/admin/routes/1  -H 'X-API-KEY: edd1c9f034335f136f87ad84b625c8f1' -X PUT -d '
{
    "uri": "/hello",
    "plugins": {},
    "upstream": {
        "type": "roundrobin",
        "nodes": {
            "127.0.0.1:1999": 1
        }
    }
}'

The plugin has been disabled now.
