	DefaultRetry = Retry{
		MaxRetries:      10,

var ErrResolveNoAddress = stderrors.New("no address specified")

ErrResolveNoAddress error occurs when IP address resolution is attempted, but no address was provided.

Functions

func GetPrivateIPs

func GetPrivateIPs(ctx context.Context) ([]string, bool)

GetPrivateIPs blocks until private IP addresses are available, or a timeout is reached.

func ResolveAddr

func ResolveAddr(addr string, lookupIPAddr ...lookupIPAddrType) (string, error)

ResolveAddr resolves an authority address to an IP address. Incoming addr can be an IP address or hostname. If addr is an IPv6 address, the IP part must be enclosed in square brackets.

LookupIPAddr() may return multiple IP addresses, of which this function returns the first IPv4 entry. To use this function in an IPv6 only environment, either provide an IPv6 address or ensure the hostname resolves to only IPv6 addresses.

Types

type Agent

type Agent interface {
	// ConfigCh returns the config channel used to send configuration updates.
	// Agent compares the current active configuration to the desired state and
	// initiates a restart if necessary. If the restart fails, the agent attempts
	// to retry with an exponential back-off.
	ConfigCh() chan<- interface{}

	// Run starts the agent control loop and awaits for a signal on the input
	// channel to exit the loop.
	Run(ctx context.Context)
}

Agent manages the restarts and the life cycle of a proxy binary. Agent keeps track of all running proxy epochs and their configurations. Hot restarts are performed by launching a new proxy process with a strictly incremented restart epoch. It is up to the proxy to ensure that older epochs gracefully shutdown and carry over all the necessary state to the latest epoch. The agent does not terminate older epochs. The initial epoch is 0.

The restart protocol matches Envoy semantics for restart epochs: to successfully launch a new Envoy process that will replace the running Envoy processes, the restart epoch of the new process must be exactly 1 greater than the highest restart epoch of the currently running Envoy processes. See https://www.envoyproxy.io/docs/envoy/latest/intro/arch_overview/hot_restart.html for more information about the Envoy hot restart protocol.

Agent requires two functions "run" and "cleanup". Run function is a call to start the proxy and must block until the proxy exits. Cleanup function is executed immediately after the proxy exits and must be non-blocking since it is executed synchronously in the main agent control loop. Both functions take the proxy epoch as an argument. A typical scenario would involve epoch 0 followed by a failed epoch 1 start. The agent then attempts to start epoch 1 again.

Whenever the run function returns an error, the agent assumes that the proxy failed to start and attempts to restart the proxy several times with an exponential back-off. The subsequent restart attempts may reuse the epoch from the failed attempt. Retry budgets are allocated whenever the desired configuration changes.

Agent executes a single control loop that receives notifications about scheduled configuration updates, exits from older proxy epochs, and retry attempt timers. The call to schedule a configuration update will block until the control loop is ready to accept and process the configuration update.

func NewAgent

func NewAgent(proxy Proxy, retry Retry, terminationDrainDuration time.Duration) Agent

NewAgent creates a new proxy agent for the proxy start-up and clean-up functions.

type DrainConfig

type DrainConfig struct{}

DrainConfig is used to signal to the Proxy that it should start draining connections

type Proxy

type Proxy interface {
	// Run command for a config, epoch, and abort channel
	Run(interface{}, int, <-chan error) error

	// Cleanup command for an epoch
	Cleanup(int)

	// Panic command is invoked with the desired config when all retries to
	// start the proxy fail just before the agent terminating
	Panic(interface{})
}

Proxy defines command interface for a proxy

type Retry

type Retry struct {

	// MaxRetries is the maximum number of retries
	MaxRetries int

	// InitialInterval is the delay between the first restart, from then on it is
	// multiplied by a factor of 2 for each subsequent retry
	InitialInterval time.Duration
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}
