fastify rest-gateway

Description

This plugin for fastify 4.x allows you to expose REST APIs for your REST microservices starting from OpenApi contracts hosted into same microservice.

Routes to be exposed by the gateway must be tagged with the appropriate tags; by default "public-api" for public APIs, "private-api" for hidden APIs.

Note To distribute open-api compliant contracts I recommend using the plugins for fastify @fastify/swagger and @fastify/swagger-ui

Warning The plugin mandatorily requires the @fastify/reply-from plugin.

Install

npm i @fgiova/fastify-rest-gateway @fastify/reply-from

Usage

const app = require("fastify")();
const replyFrom = require("@fastify/reply-from");
const fastifyRestGateway = require("@fgiova/fastify-rest-gateway");
app.register(replyFrom);
app.register(fastifyRestGateway, {
    services: [
        {
            host: "https://petstore.test.com",
            openApiUrl: "/open-api/json",
            remoteBaseUrl: "/v1/test/public-api/",
            gwBaseUrl: "/v1/test/",
            
        }
    ]
});

The plugin can be used in conjunction with @fastify/swagger and @fastify/swagger-ui to produce an open-api contract of the routes exposed by the fastify-rest-gateway plugin.

npm i @fgiova/fastify-rest-gateway @fastify/reply-from @fastify/swagger @fastify/swagger-ui

const app = require("fastify")();
const fastifyRestGateway = require("@fgiova/fastify-rest-gateway");

await app.register(require("@fastify/reply-from"));
await app.register(fastifyRestGateway, {
    services: [
        {
            host: "https://petstore.test.com",
            openApiUrl: "/open-api/json",
            remoteBaseUrl: "/v1/test/public-api/",
            gwBaseUrl: "/v1/test/",
            
        }
    ]
});

await app.register(require("@fastify/swagger"), {
    mode: "dynamic",
    openapi: {
        ...
    }
});
await app.register(require("@fastify/swagge-ui"), {
    routePrefix: "/open-api",
});

The plugin can be used in conjunction with @fastify/rate-limit to restrict upstream accesses to the target microservice.

npm i @fgiova/fastify-rest-gateway @fastify/reply-from @fastify/rate-limit

const app = require("fastify")();
const fastifyRestGateway = require("@fgiova/fastify-rest-gateway");

await app.register(require("@fastify/reply-from"));
await app.register(require("@fastify/rate-limit"));
await app.register(fastifyRestGateway, {
    services: [
        {
            host: "https://petstore.test.com",
            openApiUrl: "/open-api/json",
            remoteBaseUrl: "/v1/test/public-api/",
            gwBaseUrl: "/v1/test/",
            hitLimit: {
                max: (req: FastifyRequest) => {
                    return 10;
                },
                keyGenerator: (req: FastifyRequest) => {
                    return `${req.ip}_test`;
                },
                timeWindow: 5000
            }
        }
    ]
});

await app.register(require("@fastify/swagger"), {
    mode: "dynamic",
    openapi: {
        ...
    }
});
await app.register(require("@fastify/swagge-ui"), {
    routePrefix: "/open-api",
});

This plugin can be used in conjunction with @fastify/restartable to reload the routes when open-api contracts of microservices are changed.

npm i @fgiova/fastify-rest-gateway @fastify/reply-from @fastify/rate-limit @fastify/restartable

const app = require("fastify")();
const fastifyRestGateway = require("@fgiova/fastify-rest-gateway");
const restartable = require("@fastify/restartable");


async function createApp (fastify, opts) {
    const app = fastify(opts)

    await app.register(require("@fastify/reply-from"));
    await app.register(require("@fastify/rate-limit"));
    await app.register(fastifyRestGateway, {
        services: [
            {
                host: "https://petstore.test.com",
                openApiUrl: "/open-api/json",
                remoteBaseUrl: "/v1/test/public-api/",
                gwBaseUrl: "/v1/test/",
                refreshTimeout: 60000, // each 60s reload open-api contract from host if are changed, restart fastify
                hitLimit: {
                    max: (req: FastifyRequest) => {
                        return 10;
                    },
                    keyGenerator: (req: FastifyRequest) => {
                        return `${req.ip}_test`;
                    },
                    timeWindow: 5000
                }
            }
        ]
    });

    await app.register(require("@fastify/swagger"), {
        mode: "dynamic",
        openapi: {
            ...
        }
    });
    await app.register(require("@fastify/swagge-ui"), {
        routePrefix: "/open-api",
    });

    return app;
}

const app = await restartable(createApp, { logger: true });
const host = await app.listen({ port: 3000 });
