Describes the configuration state for the Mixer client library that’s built into Envoy.

## APIKey

APIKey defines the explicit configuration for generating the `request.api_key` attribute from HTTP requests.

See API Keys for a general overview of API keys as defined by OpenAPI.

Field | Type | Description | Required
--- | --- | --- | ---

`query`

`string (oneof)`

API Key is sent as a query parameter. `query` represents the query string parameter name.

For example, `query=api_key` should be used with the following request:

    GET /something?api_key=abcdef12345

Yes

`header`

`string (oneof)`

API key is sent in a request header. `header` represents the header name.

For example, `header=X-API-KEY` should be used with the following request:

    GET /something HTTP/1.1
    X-API-Key: abcdef12345

Yes

`cookie`

`string (oneof)`

API key is sent in a cookie,

For example, `cookie=X-API-KEY` should be used for the following request:

    GET /something HTTP/1.1
    Cookie: X-API-KEY=abcdef12345

Yes

## AttributeMatch

Specifies a match clause to match Istio attributes

Field | Type | Description | Required
--- | --- | --- | ---
`clause` | `map<string, StringMatch>` | Map of attribute names to StringMatch type. Each map element specifies one condition to match. Example: clause: source.uid: exact: SOURCEUID request.httpmethod: exact: POST | No

## HTTPAPISpec

HTTPAPISpec defines the canonical configuration for generating API-related attributes from HTTP requests based on the method and uri templated path matches. It is sufficient for defining the API surface of a service for the purposes of API attribute generation. It is not intended to represent auth, quota, documentation, or other information commonly found in other API specifications, e.g. OpenAPI.

Existing standards that define operations (or methods) in terms of HTTP methods and paths can be normalized to this format for use in Istio. For example, a simple petstore API described by OpenAPIv2 here can be represented with the following HTTPAPISpec.

    apiVersion: config.istio.io/v1alpha2
    kind: HTTPAPISpec
    metadata:
      name: petstore
      namespace: default
    spec:
      attributes:
        attributes:
          api.service:
            stringValue: petstore.swagger.io
          api.version:
            stringValue: 1.0.0
      patterns:
      - attributes:
          attributes:
            api.operation:
              stringValue: findPets
        httpMethod: GET
        uriTemplate: /api/pets
      - attributes:
          attributes:
            api.operation:
              stringValue: addPet
        httpMethod: POST
        uriTemplate: /api/pets
      - attributes:
          attributes:
            api.operation:
              stringValue: findPetById
        httpMethod: GET
        uriTemplate: /api/pets/{id}
      - attributes:
          attributes:
            api.operation:
              stringValue: deletePet
        httpMethod: DELETE
        uriTemplate: /api/pets/{id}
      apiKeys:
      - query: api-key

Field | Type | Description | Required

`apiKeys`

`APIKey[]`

List of APIKey that describes how to extract an API-KEY from an HTTP request. The first API-Key match found in the list is used, i.e. ‘OR’ semantics.

The following default policies are used to generate the `request.api_key` attribute if no explicit APIKey is defined.

    `query: key, `query: api_key`, and then `header: x-api-key`

No

## HTTPAPISpecBinding

HTTPAPISpecBinding defines the binding between HTTPAPISpecs and one or more IstioService. For example, the following establishes a binding between the HTTPAPISpec `petstore` and service `foo` in namespace `bar`.

    apiVersion: config.istio.io/v1alpha2
    kind: HTTPAPISpecBinding
    metadata:
      name: my-binding
      namespace: default
    spec:
      services:
      - name: foo
        namespace: bar
      apiSpecs:
      - name: petstore
        namespace: default

Field | Type | Description | Required
--- | --- | --- | ---
`services` | `IstioService[]` | One or more services to map the listed HTTPAPISpec onto. | Yes

    - attributes
        api.operation: doFooBar
      httpMethod: GET
      uriTemplate: /foo/bar

`reportBatchMaxEntries` | `uint32` | When disablereportbatch is false, this value specifies the maximum number of requests that are batched in report. If left unspecified, the default value of reportbatchmax_entries == 0 will use the hardcoded defaults of istio::mixerclient::ReportOptions. | No
`reportBatchMaxTime` | `Duration` | When disablereportbatch is false, this value specifies the maximum elapsed time a batched report will be sent after a user request is processed. If left unspecified, the default reportbatchmax_time == 0 will use the hardcoded defaults of istio::mixerclient::ReportOptions. | No

## istio.mixer.v1.Attributes

Attributes represents a set of typed name/value pairs. Many of Mixer’s API either consume and/or return attributes.

Istio uses attributes to control the runtime behavior of services running in the service mesh. Attributes are named and typed pieces of metadata describing ingress and egress traffic and the environment this traffic occurs in. An Istio attribute carries a specific piece of information such as the error code of an API request, the latency of an API request, or the original IP address of a TCP connection. For example:

    request.path: xyz/abc
    request.size: 234
    request.time: 12:34:56.789 04/17/2017
    source.ip: 192.168.0.1
    target.service: example

A given Istio deployment has a fixed vocabulary of attributes that it understands. The specific vocabulary is determined by the set of attribute producers being used in the deployment. The primary attribute producer in Istio is Envoy, although specialized Mixer adapters and services can also generate attributes.

The common baseline set of attributes available in most Istio deployments is defined here.

Attributes are strongly typed. The supported attribute types are defined by ValueType. Each type of value is encoded into one of the so-called transport types present in this message.

Defines a map of attributes in uncompressed format. Following places may use this message: 1) Configure Istio/Proxy with static per-proxy attributes, such as source.uid. 2) Service IDL definition to extract api attributes for active requests. 3) Forward attributes from client proxy to server proxy for HTTP requests.

Field | Type | Description | Required
--- | --- | --- | ---
`attributes` | `map<string, AttributeValue>` | A map of attribute name to its value. | No
