Description
We're trying to leverage the grpc pass to route to dynamic set of services based on the incoming sub domain name. It is a mixture of http/json and grpc traffic.
user nginx;
worker_processes 1;
error_log /dev/stderr;
pid /var/run/nginx.pid;
events {
worker_connections 1024;
}
http {
log_format main '$remote_addr - $remote_user [$time_local] "$request" '
'$status $body_bytes_sent "$http_referer" '
'"$http_user_agent"';
server {
server_name ~^(?<name>.+)\.example\.com$;
listen 443 ssl http2;
ssl_certificate /etc/nginx/ssl/nginx.crt;
ssl_certificate_key /etc/nginx/ssl/nginx.key;
access_log /dev/stdout;
location / {
resolver 8.8.8.8;
set $grpctarget grpc://$name.vfe-test.svc.cluster.local;
set $httptarget http://$name.vfe-test.svc.cluster.local;
if ($http_content_type = "application/grpc") {
grpc_pass $grpctarget:11001;
}
if ($http_content_type != "application/grpc"){
proxy_pass $httptarget:11001;
}
}
}
}
The proxy_pass block works fine, but the grpc_pass block fails with:
nginx: [emerg] no port in upstream "$grpctarget" in /etc/nginx/nginx.conf:34
Is this expected? Am I doing something incorrectly? If this isn't supported, is there any work around?
Thanks
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
Variables are not available in
grpc_pass, much like they aren't inmemcached_pass. When variables are supported in a particular directive parameter, this is explicitly documented. See, for example, the proxy_pass directive description:There is no such clause in the grpc_pass directive description.
If you want nginx to resolve names of upstream servers dynamically, you can use server ... resolve as available in the commercial version.
