hi Craig
There is no way to define a condition at the ProxyEndpoint layer. The distinguisher for ProxyEndpoints is the basepath. You need to specify a single static basepath for each ProxyEndpoint. And those basepaths must be unique (but can be overlapping).
Your original question was something like
- I'm trying to run two proxy endpoints that go to the same target endpoint and one of them adds authentication
- /images goes to the target's /api/images and this is working fine
- I want /doc/images that also goes to /api/images with basic auth on it.
I tried to explain how you can set up multiple proxyendpoints that proxy to the same target. I think we solved that problem.
But what you really want is ... not necessarily two distinct ProxyEndpoints. (and when I use that term, it refers to the specific thing within Apigee configuration). I think what you want is conditional handling of API requests, and maybe you'll handle it in a single ProxyEndpoint.
So let's suppose you use a single proxyendpoint and a single targetendpoint.
It doesn't matter what the ProxyEndpoint basepath will be. Let's assume /inbound-api
And at this point you can introduce multiple conditional flows, like this, within the ProxyEndpoint:
<Flows>
<Flow name='bare-images'>
<Request/>
<Response/>
<Condition>proxy.pathsuffix MatchesPath "/images/*" and request.verb = "GET"</Condition>
</Flow>
<Flow name='images-but-add-auth'>
<Request>
...
</Request>
<Response/>
<Condition>proxy.pathsuffix MatchesPath "/add-auth/images" and request.verb = "GET"</Condition>
</Flow>
<Flow name='unknown request'>
<Request>
<Step><Name>RF-UnknownRequest</Name></Step>
</Request>
<Response/>
</Flow>
</Flows><br>When you receive a Request with /add-auth/images (the second flow), it seems like you want to do 2 things:
- encode a basic auth header and inject it into the request header. That takes two steps: the BasicAuthentication policy and maybe the AssignMessage policy. I guess you are already doing this.
- Insure that the /add-auth part of the path does not get propagated to the target. You can do this by setting the target.url directly, but only within the TargetEndpoint ! Not in the ProxyEndpojnt. Therefore introduce a conditional flow there.
<!-- put this in the TargetEndpoint under a Flows parent -->
<Flow name='images-but-add-auth'>
<Request>
<Step><Name>BasicAuth-1</Name></Step>
<Step><Name>JS-ModifyPath</Name></Step>
</Request>
<Response/>
<Condition>proxy.pathsuffix MatchesPath "/add-auth/*" </Condition>
</Flow>And the JS for the JS step should be something like this:
context.setVariable('target.copy.pathsuffix', false);
var originalUrl = context.getVariable('target.url');
var pathsuffix = context.getVariable('proxy.pathsuffix');
context.setVariable('target.url', originalUrl + pathsuffix.replace('add-auth/',''));
context.setVariable('request.header.injected', 'hello there');
