# Routing across Knative Services

This example shows how to map multiple Knative services to different paths
under a single domain name using the Istio VirtualService concept.
Istio is a general-purpose reverse proxy, therefore these directions can also be
used to configure routing based on other request data such as headers, or even
to map Knative and external resources under the same domain name.
In this sample, we set up two web services: "Search" service and "Login"
service, which simply read in an env variable 'SERVICE_NAME' and prints
"${SERVICE_NAME} is called". We'll then create a VirtualService with host
"example.com", and define routing rules in the VirtualService so that
"example.com/search" maps to the Search service, and "example.com/login" maps

"example.com/search" maps to the Search service, and "example.com/login" maps
to the Login service.
## Prerequisites
1. [Install Knative](https://github.com/knative/docs/blob/master/install/README.md)
1. Install [docker](https://www.docker.com/)
1. Acquire a domain name. In this example, we use example.com. If you don't
have a domain name, you can modify your hosts file (on Mac or Linux) to map
example.com to your cluster's ingress IP.
1. A Kubernetes cluster with [Knative Serving](https://github.com/knative/docs/blob/master/install/README.md) installed.
2. Install [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-started/#prepare-your-docker-environment).
3. Acquire a domain name.
- In this example, we use example.com. If you don't have a domain name,
you can modify your hosts file (on Mac or Linux) to map example.com to your
cluster's ingress IP.
4. Check out the code:
```
go get -d github.com/knative/docs/serving/samples/knative-routing-go
```
## Setup
Build the app container and publish it to your registry of choice:
Build the application container and publish it to a container registry:
```shell
REPO="gcr.io/<your-project-here>"
1. Move into the sample directory:
```
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/knative/docs
```
# Build and publish the container, run from the root directory.
2. Set your preferred container registry:
```
export REPO="gcr.io/<YOUR_PROJECT_ID>"
```
This example shows how to use Google Container Registry (GCR). You will need a Google Cloud Project and to enable the [Google Container Registry
API](https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/library/containerregistry.googleapis.com).
3. Use Docker to build your application container:
```
docker build \
--tag "${REPO}/serving/samples/knative-routing-go" \
--file=serving/samples/knative-routing-go/Dockerfile .
```
4. Push your container to a container registry:
```
docker push "${REPO}/serving/samples/knative-routing-go"
```
# Replace the image reference with our published image.
perl -pi -e "s@github.com/knative/docs/serving/samples/knative-routing-go@${REPO}/serving/samples/knative-routing-go@g" serving/samples/knative-routing-go/*.yaml
5. Replace the image reference path with our published image path in the configuration file (`serving/samples/knative-routing-go/sample.yaml`):
* Manually replace:
`image: github.com/knative/docs/serving/samples/knative-routing-go` with `image: <YOUR_CONTAINER_REGISTRY>/serving/samples/knative-routing-go`
# Deploy the Knative Serving sample
Or
* Use run this command:
```
perl -pi -e "s@github.com/knative/docs@${REPO}@g" serving/samples/knative-routing-go/sample.yaml
```
## Deploy the Service
Deploy the Knative Serving sample:
```
kubectl apply -f serving/samples/knative-routing-go/sample.yaml
```
## Exploring
## Exploring the Routes
A shared Gateway "knative-shared-gateway" is used within Knative service mesh
for serving all incoming traffic. You can inspect it and its corresponding k8s
service with
```shell
# Check shared Gateway
A shared Gateway "knative-shared-gateway" is used within Knative service mesh
for serving all incoming traffic. You can inspect it and its corresponding Kubernetes
service with:
* Check the shared Gateway:
```
kubectl get Gateway -n knative-serving -oyaml
```
# Check the corresponding k8s service for the shared gateway
* Check the corresponding Kubernetes service for the shared Gateway:
```
kubectl get svc knative-ingressgateway -n istio-system -oyaml
```
And you can inspect the deployed Knative services with
```shell
* Inspect the deployed Knative services with:
```
kubectl get service.serving.knative.dev
```
You should see 2 Knative services: search-service and login-service.
You can directly access "Search" service by running
```shell
# Get the ingress IP.
export GATEWAY_IP=`kubectl get svc knative-ingressgateway -n istio-system -o jsonpath="{.status.loadBalancer.ingress[*]['ip']}"`
### Access the Services
1. Find the shared Gateway IP and export as an environment variable:
```
export GATEWAY_IP=`kubectl get svc knative-ingressgateway -n istio-system \
-o jsonpath="{.status.loadBalancer.ingress[*]['ip']}"`
```
2. Find the "Search" service route and export as an environment variable:
```
export SERVICE_HOST=`kubectl get route search-service -o jsonpath="{.status.domain}"`
```
3. Make a curl request to the service:
```
curl http://${GATEWAY_IP} --header "Host:${SERVICE_HOST}"
```
You should see
```
Search Service is called !
```
Similarly, you can also directly access "Login" service with
```shell
# Get the ingress IP.
export GATEWAY_IP=`kubectl get svc knative-ingressgateway -n istio-system -o jsonpath="{.status.loadBalancer.ingress[*]['ip']}"`
You should see: `Search Service is called !`
4. Similarly, you can also directly access "Login" service with:
```
export SERVICE_HOST=`kubectl get route login-service -o jsonpath="{.status.domain}"`
```
```
curl http://${GATEWAY_IP} --header "Host:${SERVICE_HOST}"
```
You should see
```
Login Service is called !
```
You should see: `Login Service is called !`
## Apply Custom Routing Rule
You can apply the custom routing rules defined in "routing.yaml" file with
```shell
1. Apply the custom routing rules defined in `routing.yaml` file with:
```
kubectl apply -f serving/samples/knative-routing-go/routing.yaml
```
The routing.yaml file will generate a new VirtualService "entry-route" for
domain "example.com". You can see it by running
```shell
kubectl get VirtualService entry-route -o yaml
2. The `routing.yaml` file will generate a new VirtualService "entry-route" for
domain "example.com". View the VirtualService:
```
kubectl get VirtualService entry-route -oyaml
```
Now you can send request to "Search" service and "Login" service by using
different URI.
3. Send a request to the "Search" service and the "Login" service by using
corresponding URIs. You should get the same results as directly accessing these services.
* Get the ingress IP:
```
export GATEWAY_IP=`kubectl get svc knative-ingressgateway -n istio-system \
-o jsonpath="{.status.loadBalancer.ingress[*]['ip']}"`
```
```shell
# Get the ingress IP.
export GATEWAY_IP=`kubectl get svc knative-ingressgateway -n istio-system -o jsonpath="{.status.loadBalancer.ingress[*]['ip']}"`
# send request to Search service
curl http://${GATEWAY_IP}/search --header "Host:example.com"
# send request to Login service
curl http://${GATEWAY_IP}/login --header "Host:example.com"
```
You should get the same results as you directly access these services.
* Send a request to the Search service:
```
curl http://${GATEWAY_IP}/search --header "Host:example.com"
```
* Send a request to the Login service:
```
curl http://${GATEWAY_IP}/login --header "Host:example.com"
```
## How It Works
This is the traffic flow of this sample:
When an external request with host "example.com" reaches
"knative-shared-gateway" Gateway, the "entry-route" VirtualService will check
if it has `/search` or `/login` URI. If the URI matches, then the host of
request will be rewritten into the host of "Search" service or "Login" service
correspondingly. This resets the final destination of the request.
The request with updated host will be forwarded to "knative-shared-gateway"
Gateway again. The Gateway proxy checks the updated host, and forwards it to
"Search" or "Login" service according to its host setting.
![Object model](images/knative-routing-sample-flow.png)
When an external request with host "example.com" reaches
"knative-shared-gateway" Gateway, the "entry-route" VirtualService will check
if it has "/search" or "/login" URI. If it has, then the host of
request will be rewritten into the host of "Search" service or "Login" service
correspondingly, which actually resets the final destination of the request.
The request with updated host will be forwarded to "knative-shared-gateway"
Gateway again. The Gateway proxy checks the updated host, and forwards it to
"Search" or "Login" service according to its host setting.
