Brooklyn UI :: Dumb proxy

How To Add a Proxy

1. feature:install brooklyn-ui-proxy
2. Create config admin PID of the form org.apache.brooklyn.ui.proxy-myNewProxy
3. Add the alias entry. The alias is the path that the proxy will be exposed on eg alias = /my-proxy will be exposed on http://localhost:8181/my-proxy
4. Add the target entry. The target is the proxy destination.

Add a proxy from the command line

karaf@brooklyn()> config:edit org.apache.brooklyn.ui.proxy-myNewProxy
karaf@brooklyn()> config:property-set alias /my-proxy
karaf@brooklyn()> config:property-set target http://localhost:9999/myDatabase
karaf@brooklyn()> config:update

Add a proxy using a cfg file

Create a new cfg file in <karaf_home/etc/ the file must have the same form as above ie org.apache.brooklyn.ui.proxy-myNewProxy.cfg

Add the two required fields

alias = /my-proxy
target = http://localhost:9999/myDatabase

Authenticated Target (Basic)

Add the fields username & password to the above PID

alias = /my-proxy
target = http://localhost:9999/myDatabase
username = admin
password = p@55w0rd

Proxy Authentication

All created proxies use a default httpContext proxy-context this can be overridden by setting the field httpContext.id

By default the UiProxyHttpContext uses the karaf realm this can be configured by adding the PID org.apache.brooklyn.ui.proxy.security/ui.proxy.security.realm
