Tyk Pro Demo using Docker

Quick start

Prerequisites

• Docker

Once you have a license, run these commands:

1. git clone https://github.com/TykTechnologies/tyk-pro-docker-demo && cd tyk-pro-docker-demo

2. up.sh

hint: you may need to give the executable permissions if you have an error:

chmod +x up.sh

Then check the terminal output to log in with your created user.

This will build an API that is protected by the following authentication token: my_custom_key

The repository extends the docker-pro-demo repository. Further advanced configuration with MongoDB, PostgreSQL can be found there.

An RSA key pair will be generated and stored in the confs/keys folder. These can be used to sign plugin bundles.

Plugins

This repository contains a basic example of a plugin in the following languages:

• GoLang 1.19
• JVM
• Python

It does not target gRPC.

The plugin logs to the console when each hook is activated.

Overview

A Makefile has been created to start a Tyk Self Managed docker-compose stack for each specific language.

The docker-compose stack consists of an Nginx instance to serve signed plugin bundles. To generate the RSA key pairs enter the following command from within the root of the repository:

make gen-keys

Alternatively if you have ran the up.sh command to setup the repository then the keys will have been generated for you in the confs/keys folder.

N.B the data storage volume is currently shared across docker-compose stacks.

Subsequently, for each language it will be necessary to update the plugin bundle for the API.

There is a plugins folder that contains a logger plugin, with subfolders for:

• Go
• Javascript
• Python

Each subfolder has a Makefile for building and bundling the plugin as a signed zip file. Please refer to the README file within each subfolder for an overview of the specific make rules provide for each language.

The following table summarises how to start the plugin
