Spring Cloud-Zuul API Gateway

The document explains the functionalities of the Zuul API gateway and Eureka server in a microservices architecture. Zuul acts as an edge service with four standard filters (pre, route, post, error) for request handling, while Eureka serves as a discovery server for microservices registration. Key configurations for both Zuul and Eureka, including server ports and annotations, are also outlined.

Spring cloud

Zuul API gateway:


 Zuul api gateway will work as edge service(An edge service is a component which is exposed to the
public internet. It acts as a gateway to all other services).
 Zuul core is the main component for which it will execute and compile for the filters.
 Zuul is a JVM-based router and server-side load balancer from Netflix
 Zuul contains 4 standard filters which are pre filter, route filter, post filter, error filter
 Pre filter: this filter run before the request is routed
 Route filter: this filter can handle the actual routing of the request
 Post filter: this filter run after the request has been routed
 Error filter: this filter run if an error occurs in the course of handling the request.
Example:

public class SimpleFilter extends ZuulFilter {

private static Logger log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(SimpleFilter.class);

@Override
public String filterType() {
return "pre";
}

@Override
public int filterOrder() {
return 1;
}

@Override
public boolean shouldFilter() {
return true;
}

@Override
public Object run() {
RequestContext ctx = RequestContext.getCurrentContext();
HttpServletRequest request = ctx.getRequest();

log.info(String.format("%s request to %s", request.getMethod(), request.getRequestURL().toString()));

return null;
}

 filterType(): Returns a String that stands for the type of the filter — in this case, ”PRE”.
 filterOrder(): Gives the order in which this filter is to be run, relative to other filters.
 shouldFilter(): Contains the logic that determines when to run this filter (this particular filter is
always run).
 Run(): Contains the functionality of the filter.
 Zuul filters store request and state information in (and share it by means of) the RequestContext .
You can use that to get at the HttpServletRequest and then log the HTTP method and URL of the
request before it is sent on its way.

Eureka:
All Micro service will 1st register in the Eureka server and this Eureka server knows all the
service applications running on each port and name of that application. Eureka Server is also
known as Discovery Server.
 By default Eureka server will run at port :8761
 The @EnableEurekaServer annotation is used to make your Spring Boot application
acts as a Eureka Server
 By default Eureka Server will get registers itself into the discovery.
 eureka.client.registerWithEureka = false
 eureka.client.fetchRegistry = false
 server.port = 8761

 @EnableEurekaClient: this will make the service as client and it will register into the
eureka server.

 eureka.client.serviceUrl.defaultZone =
http://localhost:8761/eureka
 spring.application.name = eurekaclient
