File-Driven Standalone Mode Configurations

In file-driven standalone mode, APISIX fetches configuration from apisix.yaml or apisix.json instead of using etcd as the configuration center. These configurations are loaded into memory at startup and monitored for changes at a regular interval, without the requirement of manually reloading APISIX.

important

If you are working with apisix.yaml, please note that APISIX will not load the configurations if there is no #END at the end of the file.

This document provides some configuration examples for APISIX deployed in file-driven standalone mode. To learn more about the available configuration options, see the Admin API reference (but do not use these endpoints). These configuration options can be translated into YAML or JSON for use in file-driven standalone mode.

Configure Routes​

This example creates two routes to forward requests to /hello and /hello2 to different upstreams:

apisix.yaml
routes:
  -
    uri: /hello
    upstream:
      nodes:
        "127.0.0.1:1980": 1
      type: roundrobin
  -
    uri: /hello2
    upstream:
      nodes:
        "127.0.0.1:1981": 1
      type: roundrobin
#END

Configure Routes and Services​

This example creates a service and a route within the service:

apisix.yaml
routes:
  -
    uri: /hello
    service_id: 1
services:
  -
    id: 1
    upstream:
      nodes:
        "127.0.0.1:1980": 1
      type: roundrobin
#END

Configure Routes and Upstreams​

This example creates an upstream and a route that points to the upstream:

apisix.yaml
routes:
  -
    uri: /hello
    upstream_id: 1
upstreams:
  -
    id: 1
    nodes:
      "127.0.0.1:1980": 1
    type: roundrobin
#END

Configure Routes, Services, and Upstreams​

This example creates an upstream, a service, and a route within the service:

apisix.yaml
routes:
  -
    uri: /hello
    service_id: 1
services:
  -
    id: 1
    upstream_id: 2
upstreams:
  -
    id: 2
    nodes:
      "127.0.0.1:1980": 1
    type: roundrobin
#END

Configure Plugins​

This example enables three plugins:

apisix.yaml
plugins:
  - name: ip-restriction
  - name: jwt-auth
  - name: mqtt-proxy
    stream: true
#END

Set stream to true for L4 plugins.

Note that this configuration will override the list of plugins enabled by default or in the configuration file.

Configure Plugin Configs​

This example creates a plugin config which is referenced by a route:

apisix.yaml
plugin_configs:
  -
    id: 1
    plugins:
      response-rewrite:
        body: "hello\n"
routes:
  - id: 1
    uri: /hello
    plugin_config_id: 1
    upstream:
    nodes:
      "127.0.0.1:1980": 1
    type: roundrobin
#END

Configure Plugin Global Rules​

This example creates a plugin global rule:

apisix.yaml
global_rules:
  -
    id: 1
    plugins:
      response-rewrite:
        body: "hello\n"
#END

Configure Plugin Metadata​

This example creates plugin metadata:

apisix.yaml
upstreams:
  - id: 1
    nodes:
      "127.0.0.1:1980": 1
    type: roundrobin
routes:
  -
    uri: /hello
    upstream_id: 1
    plugins:
      http-logger:
        batch_max_size: 1
        uri: http://127.0.0.1:1980/log
plugin_metadata:
  - id: http-logger
    log_format:
      host: "$host",
      remote_addr: "$remote_addr"
#END

Configure SSL​

This example configures SSL:

apisix.yaml
ssls:
  - 
    cert: ${{SERVER_CERT}}
    key: ${{SERVER_KEY}}
    snis:
      - "yourdomain.com"
#END

To learn more about setting environment variables, see Use Environment Variables in Configuration Files.

Configure Consumers​

This example creates a consumer:

apisix.yaml
consumers:
  - username: jwt
    plugins:
      jwt-auth:
        key: user-key
        secret: my-secret-key
#END

Configure Stream Routes​

This example creates a stream route:

apisix.yaml
stream_routes:
  - server_addr: 127.0.0.1
    server_port: 1985
    id: 1
    upstream:
       nodes:
         "127.0.0.1:1981": 1
       type: roundrobin
    plugins:
      mqtt-proxy:
        protocol_name: "MQTT"
        protocol_level: 4
#END

Configure Protos​

This example creates a proto object:

apisix.yaml
protos:
  - id: helloworld
    desc: hello world
    content: >
      syntax = "proto3";
      package helloworld;

      service Greeter {
        rpc SayHello (HelloRequest) returns (HelloReply) {}
      }
      message HelloRequest {
        string name = 1;
      }
      message HelloReply {
        string message = 1;
      }
#END
