Plugin template configuration

[LiteSun]

Background and purpose

To allow users to configure plugin templates in advance and bind the corresponding plugin templates when creating routes to achieve the fast configuration of routing plugin.

Design options

Front-end

• Plugin template configuration portal:
  Add the Plugin Template Config button to the top of the route list, and enter the Plugin Template list page after clicking the button.

• New plugin template configuration list page
  The list page is consistent with the style of other list pages and contains CRUD.

• Add a new plugin template configuration step page
  After clicking Create or Edit in the plugin template configuration List page, you will enter the plugin template configuration Steps page.
  The steps page is divided into two pages:

  • Basic configuration information (e.g., desc) and plugin template configuration, which interacts with the Plugin Marketplace page.
    
  • Preview page

• Update the Create Route configuration route page to include the plugin template selector, and render the corresponding plugin information after selecting the corresponding plugin template.
  

  Policy is consistent with apisix:

  • If the route is already configured with plugins, then the plugin configuration inside the Plugin config will be merged in.
  • The same plugins will overwrite the original plugins plugins

Back-end

Required interfaces:

• Plugin configuration list
• Plugin list search
• Create plugin configuration
• Update Plugin Configuration
• Delete plugin configuration
• May need to update Create and update routing interface, need @nic-chen to confirm

will pugin support tag?
In this way, the management and grouping of plug-ins can be completed, which is more flexible

Good catch!
Does apisix plugin config support tag? Need @spacewander to confirm, if apisix supports it, I will update the tag to the solution.

Apisix has submitted pr to complete this requirement: apache/apisix#3703

The front-end page was changed as follows to complete the requirement.

1. new label search on the plugin template list page, similar to the route list label search.
   

2. add label field in the basic information configuration. similar to the creation of the route when the configuration label.

I am a little confused about how to use the plugin template. Do we need to bind the template to the target route manually? @LiteSun

Yes, just like binding upstream in a route.

Yes, just like binding upstream in a route.

Got it, and does the plugin template can also be bind to service?

Binding service depends on apisix, which does not currently support this feature
