Since the 1.9, it is forbidden to alter the channel buffer from an HTTP stream because there is no way to keep the HTTP parser synchronized if the buffer content is altered. In addition, since the HTX is the only reprensentation for HTTP messages, the data in HTTP buffers are structured and cannot be read or updated in a raw fashion. A warning is triggered when a user tries to alter an HTTP buffer. However, it was not documented. This patch adds a warning in the lua documentation. This patch is related to the issue #1287. It may be backported as far as 2.0.

How Lua runs in HAProxy
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
HAProxy Lua running contexts
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
The Lua code executed in HAProxy can be processed in 2 main modes. The first one
|
|
is the **initialisation mode**, and the second is the **runtime mode**.
|
|
|
|
* In the **initialisation mode**, we can perform DNS solves, but we cannot
|
|
perform socket I/O. In this initialisation mode, HAProxy still blocked during
|
|
the execution of the Lua program.
|
|
|
|
* In the **runtime mode**, we cannot perform DNS solves, but we can use sockets.
|
|
The execution of the Lua code is multiplexed with the requests processing, so
|
|
the Lua code seems to be run in blocking, but it is not the case.
|
|
|
|
The Lua code is loaded in one or more files. These files contains main code and
|
|
functions. Lua have 6 execution context.
|
|
|
|
1. The Lua file **body context**. It is executed during the load of the Lua file
|
|
in the HAProxy `[global]` section with the directive `lua-load`. It is
|
|
executed in initialisation mode. This section is use for configuring Lua
|
|
bindings in HAProxy.
|
|
|
|
2. The Lua **init context**. It is a Lua function executed just after the
|
|
HAProxy configuration parsing. The execution is in initialisation mode. In
|
|
this context the HAProxy environment are already initialized. It is useful to
|
|
check configuration, or initializing socket connections or tasks. These
|
|
functions are declared in the body context with the Lua function
|
|
`core.register_init()`. The prototype of the function is a simple function
|
|
without return value and without parameters, like this: `function fcn()`.
|
|
|
|
3. The Lua **task context**. It is a Lua function executed after the start
|
|
of the HAProxy scheduler, and just after the declaration of the task with the
|
|
Lua function `core.register_task()`. This context can be concurrent with the
|
|
traffic processing. It is executed in runtime mode. The prototype of the
|
|
function is a simple function without return value and without parameters,
|
|
like this: `function fcn()`.
|
|
|
|
4. The **action context**. It is a Lua function conditionally executed. These
|
|
actions are registered by the Lua directives "`core.register_action()`". The
|
|
prototype of the Lua called function is a function with doesn't returns
|
|
anything and that take an object of class TXN as entry. `function fcn(txn)`.
|
|
|
|
5. The **sample-fetch context**. This function takes a TXN object as entry
|
|
argument and returns a string. These types of function cannot execute any
|
|
blocking function. They are useful to aggregate some of original HAProxy
|
|
sample-fetches and return the result. The prototype of the function is
|
|
`function string fcn(txn)`. These functions can be registered with the Lua
|
|
function `core.register_fetches()`. Each declared sample-fetch is prefixed by
|
|
the string "lua.".
|
|
|
|
**NOTE**: It is possible that this function cannot found the required data
|
|
in the original HAProxy sample-fetches, in this case, it cannot return the
|
|
result. This case is not yet supported
|
|
|
|
6. The **converter context**. It is a Lua function that takes a string as input
|
|
and returns another string as output. These types of function are stateless,
|
|
it cannot access to any context. They don't execute any blocking function.
|
|
The call prototype is `function string fcn(string)`. This function can be
|
|
registered with the Lua function `core.register_converters()`. Each declared
|
|
converter is prefixed by the string "lua.".

HAProxy Lua Hello world
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
HAProxy configuration file (`hello_world.conf`):
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
global
|
|
lua-load hello_world.lua
|
|
|
|
listen proxy
|
|
bind 127.0.0.1:10001
|
|
tcp-request inspect-delay 1s
|
|
tcp-request content use-service lua.hello_world
|
|
|
|
HAProxy Lua file (`hello_world.lua`):
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: lua
|
|
|
|
core.register_service("hello_world", "tcp", function(applet)
|
|
applet:send("hello world\n")
|
|
end)
|
|
|
|
How to start HAProxy for testing this configuration:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
./haproxy -f hello_world.conf
|
|
|
|
On other terminal, you can test with telnet:
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
#:~ telnet 127.0.0.1 10001
|
|
hello world
|
|
|
|
Core class
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
.. js:class:: core
|
|
|
|
The "core" class contains all the HAProxy core functions. These function are
|
|
useful for the controlling the execution flow, registering hooks, manipulating
|
|
global maps or ACL, ...
|
|
|
|
"core" class is basically provided with HAProxy. No `require` line is
|
|
required to uses these function.
|
|
|
|
The "core" class is static, it is not possible to create a new object of this
|
|
type.
|
|
|
|
.. js:attribute:: core.emerg
|
|
|
|
:returns: integer
|
|
|
|
This attribute is an integer, it contains the value of the loglevel "emergency" (0).

|
|
|
:returns: integer
|
|
|
|
This attribute is an integer, it contains the value of the loglevel "error" (3).
|
|
|
|
.. js:attribute:: core.warning
|
|
|
|
:returns: integer
|
|
|
|
This attribute is an integer, it contains the value of the loglevel "warning" (4).
|
|
|
|
.. js:attribute:: core.notice
|
|
|
|
:returns: integer
|
|
|
|
This attribute is an integer, it contains the value of the loglevel "notice" (5).
|
|
|
|
.. js:attribute:: core.info
|
|
|
|
:returns: integer
|
|
|
|
This attribute is an integer, it contains the value of the loglevel "info" (6).
|
|

.. js:attribute:: core.debug
|
|
|
|
:returns: integer
|
|
|
|
This attribute is an integer, it contains the value of the loglevel "debug" (7).
|
|
|
|
.. js:attribute:: core.proxies
|
|
|
|
**context**: task, action, sample-fetch, converter
|
|
|
|
This attribute is a table of declared proxies (frontend and backends). Each
|
|
proxy give an access to his list of listeners and servers. The table is
|
|
indexed by proxy name, and each entry is of type :ref:`proxy_class`.
|
|
|
|
Warning, if you are declared frontend and backend with the same name, only one
|
|
of these are listed.
|
|
|
|
:see: :js:attr:`core.backends`
|
|
:see: :js:attr:`core.frontends`
|
|
|
|
.. js:attribute:: core.backends
|
|
|
|
**context**: task, action, sample-fetch, converter
|
|
|
|
This attribute is a table of declared proxies with backend capability. Each
|
|
proxy give an access to his list of listeners and servers. The table is
|
|
indexed by the backend name, and each entry is of type :ref:`proxy_class`.
|
|
|
|
:see: :js:attr:`core.proxies`

|
.. js:attribute:: core.frontends
|
|
|
|
**context**: task, action, sample-fetch, converter
|
|
|
|
This attribute is a table of declared proxies with frontend capability. Each
|
|
proxy give an access to his list of listeners and servers. The table is

|
.. js:attribute:: core.thread
|
|
|
|
**context**: task, action, sample-fetch, converter, applet
|
|
|
|
This variable contains the executing thread number starting at 1. 0 is a
|
|
special case for the common lua context. So, if thread is 0, Lua scope is
|
|
shared by all threads, otherwise the scope is dedicated to a single thread.
|
|
A program which needs to execute some parts exactly once regardless of the
|
|
number of threads can check that core.thread is 0 or 1.
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: core.log(loglevel, msg)
|
|
|
|
**context**: body, init, task, action, sample-fetch, converter
|
|
|
|
This function sends a log. The log is sent, according with the HAProxy
|
|
configuration file, on the default syslog server if it is configured and on
|
|
the stderr if it is allowed.
|
|
|
|
:param integer loglevel: Is the log level associated with the message. It is a
|
|
number between 0 and 7.
|
|
:param string msg: The log content.
|
|
:see: :js:attr:`core.emerg`, :js:attr:`core.alert`, :js:attr:`core.crit`,
|
|
:js:attr:`core.err`, :js:attr:`core.warning`, :js:attr:`core.notice`,

Proxies is a table containing the list of all proxies declared in the
|
|
configuration file. The table is indexed by the proxy name, and each entry
|
|
of the proxies table is an object of type :ref:`proxy_class`.
|
|
|
|
Warning, if you have declared a frontend and backend with the same name, only
|
|
one of these are listed.
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: core.register_action(name, actions, func [, nb_args])
|
|
|
|
**context**: body
|
|
|
|
Register a Lua function executed as action. All the registered action can be
|
|
used in HAProxy with the prefix "lua.". An action gets a TXN object class as
|
|
input.
|
|
|
|
:param string name: is the name of the converter.
|
|
:param table actions: is a table of string describing the HAProxy actions who
|
|
want to register to. The expected actions are 'tcp-req',
|
|
'tcp-res', 'http-req' or 'http-res'.
|
|
:param integer nb_args: is the expected number of argument for the action.
|
|
By default the value is 0.
|
|
:param function func: is the Lua function called to work as converter.
|
|
|
|
The prototype of the Lua function used as argument is:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: lua
|
|
|
|
function(txn [, arg1 [, arg2]])
|
|
..
|
|
|
|
* **txn** (:ref:`txn_class`): this is a TXN object used for manipulating the
|
|
current request or TCP stream.
|
|
|
|
* **argX**: this is argument provided through the HAProxy configuration file.
|
|
|
|
Here, an example of action registration. The action just send an 'Hello world'
|
|
in the logs.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: lua
|
|
|
|
core.register_action("hello-world", { "tcp-req", "http-req" }, function(txn)
|
|
txn:Info("Hello world")
|
|
end)
|
|
..
|
|
|
|
This example code is used in HAProxy configuration like this:
|
|
|
|
::

|
|
|
|
**context**: body
|
|
|
|
Register a Lua function executed as converter. All the registered converters
|
|
can be used in HAProxy with the prefix "lua.". An converter get a string as
|
|
input and return a string as output. The registered function can take up to 9
|
|
values as parameter. All the value are strings.
|
|
|
|
:param string name: is the name of the converter.
|
|
:param function func: is the Lua function called to work as converter.

|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: core.register_service(name, mode, func)
|
|
|
|
**context**: body
|
|
|
|
Register a Lua function executed as a service. All the registered service can
|
|
be used in HAProxy with the prefix "lua.". A service gets an object class as
|
|
input according with the required mode.
|
|
|
|
:param string name: is the name of the converter.
|
|
:param string mode: is string describing the required mode. Only 'tcp' or
|
|
'http' are allowed.
|
|
:param function func: is the Lua function called to work as converter.
|
|
|
|
The prototype of the Lua function used as argument is:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: lua
|
|
|
|
function(applet)
|
|
..
|
|
|
|
* **applet** *applet* will be a :ref:`applettcp_class` or a
|
|
:ref:`applethttp_class`. It depends the type of registered applet. An applet
|
|
registered with the 'http' value for the *mode* parameter will gets a
|
|
:ref:`applethttp_class`. If the *mode* value is 'tcp', the applet will gets
|
|
a :ref:`applettcp_class`.
|
|
|
|
**warning**: Applets of type 'http' cannot be called from 'tcp-*'
|
|
rulesets. Only the 'http-*' rulesets are authorized, this means
|
|
that is not possible to call an HTTP applet from a proxy in tcp
|
|
mode. Applets of type 'tcp' can be called from anywhere.
|
|
|
|
Here, an example of service registration. The service just send an 'Hello world'
|
|
as an http response.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: lua
|
|
|
|
core.register_service("hello-world", "http", function(applet)
|
|
local response = "Hello World !"
|
|
applet:set_status(200)
|
|
applet:add_header("content-length", string.len(response))
|
|
applet:add_header("content-type", "text/plain")
|
|
applet:start_response()
|
|
applet:send(response)

|
|
|
|
Concat class
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
.. js:class:: Concat
|
|
|
|
This class provides a fast way for string concatenation. The way using native
|
|
Lua concatenation like the code below is slow for some reasons.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: lua
|
|
|
|
str = "string1"
|
|
str = str .. ", string2"
|
|
str = str .. ", string3"
|
|
..
|
|
|
|
For each concatenation, Lua:
|
|
* allocate memory for the result,
|
|
* catenate the two string copying the strings in the new memory block,
|
|
* free the old memory block containing the string which is no longer used.
|
|
This process does many memory move, allocation and free. In addition, the
|
|
memory is not really freed, it is just mark mark as unused and wait for the
|
|
garbage collector.
|
|
|
|
The Concat class provide an alternative way to concatenate strings. It uses
|
|
the internal Lua mechanism (it does not allocate memory), but it doesn't copy
|
|
the data more than once.
|
|
|
|
On my computer, the following loops spends 0.2s for the Concat method and
|
|
18.5s for the pure Lua implementation. So, the Concat class is about 1000x
|
|
faster than the embedded solution.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: lua
|
|
|
|
for j = 1, 100 do
|
|
c = core.concat()

c:add("#####")
|
|
end

|
This class contains a lot of internal HAProxy sample fetches. See the
|
|
HAProxy "configuration.txt" documentation for more information about her
|
|
usage. They are the chapters 7.3.2 to 7.3.6.

|
|
:see: :js:attr:`TXN.c`
|
|
:see: :js:attr:`TXN.sc`
|
|
|

Converters provides statefull transformation. They are useful for:
|
|
|
|
* converting input to base64,
|
|
* applying hash on input string (djb2, crc32, sdbm, wt6),
|
|
* format date,
|
|
* json escape,
|
|
* extracting preferred language comparing two lists,
|
|

|
|
|
Channel class
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
.. js:class:: Channel
|
|
|
|
HAProxy uses two buffers for the processing of the requests. The first one is
|
|
used with the request data (from the client to the server) and the second is
|
|
used for the response data (from the server to the client).
|
|
|
|
Each buffer contains two types of data. The first type is the incoming data
|
|
waiting for a processing. The second part is the outgoing data already
|
|
processed. Usually, the incoming data is processed, after it is tagged as
|
|
outgoing data, and finally it is sent. The following functions provides tools
|
|
for manipulating these data in a buffer.
|
|
|
|
The following diagram shows where the channel class function are applied.
|
|
|
|
**Warning**: It is not possible to read from the response in request action,
|
|
and it is not possible to read for the request channel in response action.
|
|
|
|
**Warning**: It is forbidden to alter the Channels buffer from HTTP contexts.
|
|
So only :js:func:`Channel.get_in_length`, :js:func:`Channel.get_out_length`
|
|
and :js:func:`Channel.is_full` can be called from an HTTP conetext.
|
|
|
|
.. image:: _static/channel.png
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: Channel.dup(channel)
|
|
|
|
This function returns a string that contain the entire buffer. The data is
|
|
not remove from the buffer and can be reprocessed later.
|
|
|
|
If the buffer can't receive more data, a 'nil' value is returned.
|
|
|
|
:param class_channel channel: The manipulated Channel.
|
|
:returns: a string containing all the available data or nil.
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: Channel.get(channel)
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
:param class_channel channel: The manipulated Channel.
|
|
:returns: a string containing all the available data or nil.
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: Channel.getline(channel)
|
|
|
|

|
|
data is consumed. If the data returned doesn't contains a final '\n' its
|
|
assumed than its the last available data in the buffer.
|
|
|
|
If the buffer can't receive more data, a 'nil' value is returned.
|
|
|
|
:param class_channel channel: The manipulated Channel.
|
|
:returns: a string containing the available line or nil.

|
session and optionally reply to the client for HTTP sessions.
|
|
|
|
:param class_txn txn: The class txn object containing the data.
|
|
:param class_reply reply: The class reply object to return to the client.

This functions can be used when a critical error is detected or to terminate
|
|
processing after some data have been returned to the client (eg: a redirect).
|
|
To do so, a reply may be provided. This object is optional and may contain a
|
|
status code, a reason, a header list and a body. All these fields are
|
|
optionnals. When not provided, the default values are used. By default, with
|
|
an empty reply object, an empty HTTP 200 response is returned to the
|
|
client. If no reply object is provided, the transaction is terminated without
|
|
any reply.

The reply object may be fully created in lua or the class Reply may be used to
|
|
create it.

.. _socket_class:
|
|
|
|
Socket class
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
.. js:class:: Socket
|
|
|
|
This class must be compatible with the Lua Socket class. Only the 'client'
|
|
functions are available. See the Lua Socket documentation:
|
|
|
|
`http://w3.impa.br/~diego/software/luasocket/tcp.html
|
|
<http://w3.impa.br/~diego/software/luasocket/tcp.html>`_
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: Socket.close(socket)
|
|
|
|
Closes a TCP object. The internal socket used by the object is closed and the
|
|
local address to which the object was bound is made available to other
|
|
applications. No further operations (except for further calls to the close
|
|
method) are allowed on a closed Socket.
|
|
|
|
:param class_socket socket: Is the manipulated Socket.
|
|
|
|
Note: It is important to close all used sockets once they are not needed,
|
|
since, in many systems, each socket uses a file descriptor, which are limited
|
|
system resources. Garbage-collected objects are automatically closed before
|
|
destruction, though.
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: Socket.connect(socket, address[, port])
|
|
|
|
Attempts to connect a socket object to a remote host.
|
|
|
|
|
|
In case of error, the method returns nil followed by a string describing the
|
|
error. In case of success, the method returns 1.
|
|
|
|
:param class_socket socket: Is the manipulated Socket.
|
|
:param string address: can be an IP address or a host name. See below for more
|
|
information.
|
|
:param integer port: must be an integer number in the range [1..64K].
|
|
:returns: 1 or nil.
|
|
|
|
An address field extension permits to use the connect() function to connect to
|
|
other stream than TCP. The syntax containing a simpleipv4 or ipv6 address is
|
|
the basically expected format. This format requires the port.
|
|
|
|
Other format accepted are a socket path like "/socket/path", it permits to
|
|
connect to a socket. Abstract namespaces are supported with the prefix
|
|
"abns@", and finally a file descriptor can be passed with the prefix "fd@".
|
|
The prefix "ipv4@", "ipv6@" and "unix@" are also supported. The port can be
|
|
passed int the string. The syntax "127.0.0.1:1234" is valid. In this case, the
|
|
parameter *port* must not be set.
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: Socket.connect_ssl(socket, address, port)
|
|
|
|
Same behavior than the function socket:connect, but uses SSL.
|
|
|
|
:param class_socket socket: Is the manipulated Socket.
|
|
:returns: 1 or nil.
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: Socket.getpeername(socket)
|
|
|
|
Returns information about the remote side of a connected client object.
|
|
|
|
Returns a string with the IP address of the peer, followed by the port number
|
|
that peer is using for the connection. In case of error, the method returns
|
|
nil.
|
|
|
|
:param class_socket socket: Is the manipulated Socket.
|
|
:returns: a string containing the server information.
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: Socket.getsockname(socket)
|
|
|
|
Returns the local address information associated to the object.
|
|
|
|
The method returns a string with local IP address and a number with the port.
|
|
In case of error, the method returns nil.
|
|
|
|
:param class_socket socket: Is the manipulated Socket.
|
|
:returns: a string containing the client information.
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: Socket.receive(socket, [pattern [, prefix]])
|
|
|
|
Reads data from a client object, according to the specified read pattern.
|
|
Patterns follow the Lua file I/O format, and the difference in performance
|
|
between all patterns is negligible.
|
|
|
|
:param class_socket socket: Is the manipulated Socket.
|
|
:param string|integer pattern: Describe what is required (see below).
|
|
:param string prefix: A string which will be prefix the returned data.
|
|
:returns: a string containing the required data or nil.
|
|
|
|
Pattern can be any of the following:
|
|
|
|
* **`*a`**: reads from the socket until the connection is closed. No
|
|
end-of-line translation is performed;
|
|
|
|
* **`*l`**: reads a line of text from the Socket. The line is terminated by a
|
|
LF character (ASCII 10), optionally preceded by a CR character
|
|
(ASCII 13). The CR and LF characters are not included in the
|
|
returned line. In fact, all CR characters are ignored by the
|
|
pattern. This is the default pattern.
|
|
|
|
* **number**: causes the method to read a specified number of bytes from the
|
|
Socket. Prefix is an optional string to be concatenated to the
|
|
beginning of any received data before return.
|
|
|
|
* **empty**: If the pattern is left empty, the default option is `*l`.
|
|
|
|
If successful, the method returns the received pattern. In case of error, the
|
|
method returns nil followed by an error message which can be the string
|
|
'closed' in case the connection was closed before the transmission was
|
|
completed or the string 'timeout' in case there was a timeout during the
|
|
operation. Also, after the error message, the function returns the partial
|
|
result of the transmission.
|
|
|
|
Important note: This function was changed severely. It used to support
|
|
multiple patterns (but I have never seen this feature used) and now it
|
|
doesn't anymore. Partial results used to be returned in the same way as
|
|
successful results. This last feature violated the idea that all functions
|
|
should return nil on error. Thus it was changed too.
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: Socket.send(socket, data [, start [, end ]])
|
|
|
|
Sends data through client object.
|
|
|
|
:param class_socket socket: Is the manipulated Socket.
|
|
:param string data: The data that will be sent.
|
|
:param integer start: The start position in the buffer of the data which will
|
|
be sent.
|
|
:param integer end: The end position in the buffer of the data which will
|
|
be sent.
|
|
:returns: see below.
|
|
|
|
Data is the string to be sent. The optional arguments i and j work exactly
|
|
like the standard string.sub Lua function to allow the selection of a
|
|
substring to be sent.
|
|
|
|
If successful, the method returns the index of the last byte within [start,
|
|
end] that has been sent. Notice that, if start is 1 or absent, this is
|
|
effectively the total number of bytes sent. In case of error, the method
|
|
returns nil, followed by an error message, followed by the index of the last
|
|
byte within [start, end] that has been sent. You might want to try again from
|
|
the byte following that. The error message can be 'closed' in case the
|
|
connection was closed before the transmission was completed or the string
|
|
'timeout' in case there was a timeout during the operation.
|
|
|
|
Note: Output is not buffered. For small strings, it is always better to
|
|
concatenate them in Lua (with the '..' operator) and send the result in one
|
|
call instead of calling the method several times.
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: Socket.setoption(socket, option [, value])
|
|
|
|
Just implemented for compatibility, this cal does nothing.
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: Socket.settimeout(socket, value [, mode])
|
|
|
|
Changes the timeout values for the object. All I/O operations are blocking.
|
|
That is, any call to the methods send, receive, and accept will block
|
|
indefinitely, until the operation completes. The settimeout method defines a
|
|
limit on the amount of time the I/O methods can block. When a timeout time
|
|
has elapsed, the affected methods give up and fail with an error code.
|
|
|
|
The amount of time to wait is specified as the value parameter, in seconds.
|
|
|
|
The timeout modes are not implemented, the only settable timeout is the
|
|
inactivity time waiting for complete the internal buffer send or waiting for
|
|
receive data.
|
|
|
|
:param class_socket socket: Is the manipulated Socket.
|
|
:param float value: The timeout value. Use floating point to specify
|
|
milliseconds.

Regex class
|
|
===========
|
|
|
|
.. js:class:: Regex
|
|
|
|
This class allows the usage of HAProxy regexes because classic lua doesn't
|
|
provides regexes. This class inherits the HAProxy compilation options, so the
|
|
regexes can be libc regex, pcre regex or pcre JIT regex.
|
|
|
|
The expression matching number is limited to 20 per regex. The only available
|
|
option is case sensitive.
|
|
|
|
Because regexes compilation is a heavy process, it is better to define all
|
|
your regexes in the **body context** and use it during the runtime.
|
|

print "error: " .. regex
|
|
end
|

|
|
-- Match the regexes
|
|
print(regex:exec("Looking for a needle in the haystack")) -- true
|
|
print(regex:exec("Lokking for a cat in the haystack")) -- false
|
|
|
|
-- Extract words
|
|
st, list = regex:match("Looking for a needle in the haystack")
|
|
print(st) -- true
|

|
applet execution place cannot access to a valid HAProxy core HTTP
|
|
transaction, so some sample fetches related to the HTTP dependent
|
|
values (hdr, path, ...) are not available.
|

|
.. js:attribute:: AppletHTTP.sf
|
|
|
|
:returns: A :ref:`fetches_class`
|

|
|
|
|
:returns: table
|
|
|
|
The attribute headers returns a table containing the HTTP
|
|
headers. The header names are always in lower case. As the header name can be
|
|
encountered more than once in each request, the value is indexed with 0 as
|
|
first index value. The table have this form:

|
================
|
|
|
|
.. js:class:: StickTable
|
|
|
|
**context**: task, action, sample-fetch
|
|
|
|
This class can be used to access the HAProxy stick tables from Lua.
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: StickTable.info()
|
|
|
|
Returns stick table attributes as a Lua table. See HAProxy documentation for
|
|
"stick-table" for canonical info, or check out example below.
|
|
|
|
:returns: Lua table
|
|
|
|
Assume our table has IPv4 key and gpc0 and conn_rate "columns":
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: lua
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
expire=<int>, # Value in ms
|
|
size=<int>, # Maximum table size
|
|
used=<int>, # Actual number of entries in table
|
|
data={ # Data columns, with types as key, and periods as values
|
|
(-1 if type is not rate counter)
|
|
conn_rate=<int>,

|
|
# otherwise

|
|
:returns: Lua table
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: StickTable.dump([filter])
|
|
|
|
Returns all entries in stick table. An optional filter can be used
|
|
to extract entries with specific data values. Filter is a table with valid
|
|
comparison operators as keys followed by data type name and value pairs.
|
|
Check out the HAProxy docs for "show table" for more details. For the
|
|
reference, the supported operators are:
|
|
"eq", "ne", "le", "lt", "ge", "gt"
|
|
|
|
For large tables, execution of this function can take a long time (for
|
|
HAProxy standards). That's also true when filter is used, so take care and
|
|
measure the impact.
|
|
|
|
:param table filter: Stick table filter
|
|
:returns: Stick table entries (table)
|
|
|
|
See below for example filter, which contains 4 entries (or comparisons).
|
|
(Maximum number of filter entries is 4, defined in the source code)
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: lua
|
|
|
|
local filter = {
|
|
{"gpc0", "gt", 30}, {"gpc1", "gt", 20}}, {"conn_rate", "le", 10}

.. js:class:: Act
|
|
|
|
**context**: action
|
|
|
|
This class contains all return codes an action may return. It is the lua
|
|
equivalent to HAProxy "ACT_RET_*" code.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: lua
|
|
|
|
core.register_action("deny", { "http-req" }, function (txn)
|
|
return act.DENY
|
|
end)
|
|
..
|
|
.. js:attribute:: act.CONTINUE
|
|
|
|
This attribute is an integer (0). It instructs HAProxy to continue the current
|
|
ruleset processing on the message. It is the default return code for a lua
|
|
action.
|
|
|
|
:returns: integer
|
|
|
|
.. js:attribute:: act.STOP
|
|
|
|
This attribute is an integer (1). It instructs HAProxy to stop the current
|
|
ruleset processing on the message.
|
|
|
|
.. js:attribute:: act.YIELD
|
|
|
|
This attribute is an integer (2). It instructs HAProxy to temporarily pause
|
|
the message processing. It will be resumed later on the same rule. The
|
|
corresponding lua script is re-executed for the start.
|
|
|
|
.. js:attribute:: act.ERROR
|
|
|
|
This attribute is an integer (3). It triggers an internal errors The message
|
|
processing is stopped and the transaction is terminated. For HTTP streams, an
|
|
HTTP 500 error is returned to the client.
|
|
|
|
:returns: integer
|
|
|
|
.. js:attribute:: act.DONE
|
|
|
|
This attribute is an integer (4). It instructs HAProxy to stop the message
|
|
processing.
|
|
|
|
:returns: integer
|
|
|
|
.. js:attribute:: act.DENY
|
|
|
|
This attribute is an integer (5). It denies the current message. The message
|
|
processing is stopped and the transaction is terminated. For HTTP streams, an
|
|
HTTP 403 error is returned to the client if the deny is returned during the
|
|
request analysis. During the response analysis, an HTTP 502 error is returned
|
|
and the server response is discarded.
|
|
|
|
:returns: integer
|
|
|
|
.. js:attribute:: act.ABORT
|
|
|
|
This attribute is an integer (6). It aborts the current message. The message
|
|
processing is stopped and the transaction is terminated. For HTTP streams,
|
|
HAProxy assumes a response was already sent to the client. From the Lua
|
|
actions point of view, when this code is used, the transaction is terminated
|
|
with no reply.
|
|
|
|
:returns: integer
|
|
|
|
.. js:attribute:: act.INVALID
|
|
|
|
This attribute is an integer (7). It triggers an internal errors. The message
|
|
processing is stopped and the transaction is terminated. For HTTP streams, an
|
|
HTTP 400 error is returned to the client if the error is returned during the
|
|
request analysis. During the response analysis, an HTTP 502 error is returned
|
|
and the server response is discarded.
|
|
|
|
:returns: integer
|
|
|
|
.. js:function:: act:wake_time(milliseconds)
|
|
|
|
**context**: action
|
|
|
|
Set the script pause timeout to the specified time, defined in
|
|
milliseconds.
|
|
|
|
:param integer milliseconds: the required milliseconds.
|
|
|
|
This function may be used when a lua action returns `act.YIELD`, to force its
|
|
wake-up at most after the specified number of milliseconds.

External Lua libraries
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
A lot of useful lua libraries can be found here:
|
|
|
|
* `https://lua-toolbox.com/ <https://lua-toolbox.com/>`_
|
|
|
|
Redis client library:
|
|
|
|
* `https://github.com/nrk/redis-lua <https://github.com/nrk/redis-lua>`_
|
|
|
|
This is an example about the usage of the Redis library with HAProxy. Note that
|
|
each call of any function of this library can throw an error if the socket
|
|
connection fails.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: lua
|
|
|
|
-- load the redis library
|
|
local redis = require("redis");
|
|
|
|
function do_something(txn)
|
|
|
|
-- create and connect new tcp socket
|
|
local tcp = core.tcp();
|
|
tcp:settimeout(1);
|
|
tcp:connect("127.0.0.1", 6379);
|
|
|
|
-- use the redis library with this new socket
|
|
local client = redis.connect({socket=tcp});
|
|
client:ping();
|
|
|
|
end
