sidebar_position: 2 title: Integrate Http with soul gateway keywords: [“soul”] description: Integrate Http with soul gateway

Features

• This chapter is a guide about integrating Http service with soul gateway.
• Soul gateway uses divide plugin handling http request, pls enable it in soul-admin background.
• Please start soul-admin successfully before integrating and Environment Setup is Ok.

Configure soul gateway as Http proxy.

• Add these dependencies in gateway's pom.xml:

  <!--if you use http proxy start this-->
   <dependency>
       <groupId>org.dromara</groupId>
       <artifactId>soul-spring-boot-starter-plugin-divide</artifactId>
       <version>${last.version}</version>
   </dependency>

   <dependency>
       <groupId>org.dromara</groupId>
       <artifactId>soul-spring-boot-starter-plugin-httpclient</artifactId>
       <version>${last.version}</version>
   </dependency>

• pls restart the gateway.

Http request via soul gateway（springMVC user）

• pls make sure divide plugin has enabled in soul-admin background.

add Soul-Client methods（available for SpringMVC,SpringBoot user）

• SpringBoot User

  • Add these dependencies in your local maven repository pom.xml:

         <dependency>
             <groupId>org.dromara</groupId>
             <artifactId>soul-spring-boot-starter-client-springmvc</artifactId>
             <version>${last.version}</version>
         </dependency>
    

  • Backend server register center config, please look:register center access.

• SpringMVC User

  • Add these dependencies in your local maven repository pom.xml:

           <dependency>
               <groupId>org.dromara</groupId>
               <artifactId>soul-client-springmvc</artifactId>
               <version>${last.version}</version>
           </dependency>
    

  • Inject these properties into your Spring beans XML file:

        <bean id ="springMvcClientBeanPostProcessor" class ="org.dromara.soul.client.springmvc.init.SpringMvcClientBeanPostProcessor">
             <constructor-arg  ref="soulRegisterCenterConfig"/>
        </bean>
    
        <bean id="soulRegisterCenterConfig" class="org.dromara.soul.register.common.config.SoulRegisterCenterConfig;">
             <property name="registerType" value="http"/>
             <property name="serverList" value="http://localhost:9095"/>
             <property name="props">
                  <map>
                    <entry key="contextPath" value="/your contextPath"/>
                    <entry key="appName" value="your server name"/>
                    <entry key="port" value="your server port"/>
                    <entry key="isFull" value="false"/>
                  </map>
             </property>
        </bean>
    

• Add this annotation @SoulSpringMvcClient in your controller interface.

  • You can apply the annotation to class-level in a controller.the name of the path variable is prefix and ‘/**’ will apply proxy for entire interfaces.

  • Example1: both /test/payment and /test/findByUserId will be handled by proxy service.

      @RestController
      @RequestMapping("/test")
      @SoulSpringMvcClient(path = "/test/**")
      public class HttpTestController {
    
          @PostMapping("/payment")
          public UserDTO post(@RequestBody final UserDTO userDTO) {
              return userDTO;
          }
    
          @GetMapping("/findByUserId")
          public UserDTO findByUserId(@RequestParam("userId") final String userId) {
              UserDTO userDTO = new UserDTO();
              userDTO.setUserId(userId);
              userDTO.setUserName("hello world");
              return userDTO;
          }      
       }
    

  • Example2: /order/save will be handled by proxy service, but /order/findById won't.

      @RestController
      @RequestMapping("/order")
      @SoulSpringMvcClient(path = "/order")
      public class OrderController {
    
          @PostMapping("/save")
          @SoulSpringMvcClient(path = "/save")
          public OrderDTO save(@RequestBody final OrderDTO orderDTO) {
              orderDTO.setName("hello world save order");
              return orderDTO;
          }
    
          @GetMapping("/findById")
          public OrderDTO findById(@RequestParam("id") final String id) {
              OrderDTO orderDTO = new OrderDTO();
              orderDTO.setId(id);
              orderDTO.setName("hello world findById");
              return orderDTO;
          }
      }
    

• Kick off your project with your interface, which is integrated with soul gateway.

Configure soul gateway as an Http proxy（other framework）

• first of all, enable the divide plugin in soul-admin, then add selector and rule which will filter the request.
• if you don't know how to configure, pls refer to selector guide.
• you can also develop your cutomized http-client，refer to multi-language Http client development。

User request

• Send the request as before, only two points need to notice.

• Firstly，the domain name that requested before in your service, now need to replace with gateway's domain name.

• Secondly，soul gateway needs a route prefix which comes from contextPath, it configured during the integration with gateway, you can change it freely in divide plugin of soul-admin, if you are familiar with it.

  • for example, if you have an order service and it has a interface, the request url: http://localhost:8080/test/save

  • Now need to change to: http://localhost:9195/order/test/save

  • We can see localhost:9195 is your gateway's ip port，default port number is 9195 ，/order is your contextPath which you configured with gateway.

  • other parameters doesn't change in request method.

  • Any questions, pls join the group and we can talk about it.

• Then you can visit, very easy and simple.
