Getting Started # Route
===============
## Configuration Route is a load balancer that has backends connect to the load balancer instead
of the load balancer connecting to backends. This model allows networks to be
vastly simplified, no longer having to bring in consul or another consensus layer,
no more configuration generation.
```shell Project Stability: Alpha
# base configuration
BOLTDB_PATH=/routed/route.db
WEB_ADDR=:80
SSL_ADDR=:443
BACKEND_TCP_ADDR=:8757
BACKEND_KCP_ADDR=:8804
GRPC_ADDR=:7268
DOMAIN_SUFFIX=
ACME_EMAIL=
SSL_CERT_KEY=
```
Fill out the missing parts of this and save it as `.env` somewhere.
### `DOMAIN_SUFFIX`
type: string
When a domain is not supplied for a newly created route, domains will be a random
string prepended to this setting. Set up a wildcard DNS entry for this prefix pointed
to the server running routed.
Example: `.route.xeserv.us`
### `ACME_EMAIL`
type: string, email address
This email address will be used to establish an account with Let's Encrypt. By
using the ACME support route has you agree to follow all of the Let's Encrypt
terms and conditions [here][letoc].
### `SSL_CERT_KEY`
type: string, encryption key
This will be used to encrypt and decrypt all SSL certificates on the disk.
New keys can be generated by running `route generate-key`.
## Node Setup
The target node must have a direct route from the internet to TCP ports
`80`, `443`, `7268`, and `8757` and UDP port `8804`. In order they are used
for:
| kind | port | usage |
|:-- |:-- |:-- |
| tcp | `80` | plain http traffic to backends |
| tcp | `443` | https (and http/2) traffic to backends |
| tcp | `7268` | grpc interface for management |
| tcp | `8757` | backend connections |
| udp | `8804` | backend connections |
### Docker Volume Creation
```console
$ docker volume create routed
```
### Initial Setup
```console
$ docker run --rm -it -v routed:/routed xena/route:latest sh
(ctr)$ cd /routed
(ctr)$ route-cli token generate-root --key=<ssl cert key from above> --username=<username> --db=./route.db
Your token is e73831bc-f40a-4cd4-84a6-b6b1e4529fa2
(ctr)$ exit
```
Save this username and token as they will be very important.
### Persistent setup with runit
- Create a folder in `/etc/system` named `routed`
`# mkdir -p /etc/system/routed`
- Copy the `.env` file created above into `etc/system/routed`
- Create a file named `run` with the following contents:
```sh
#!/bin/sh
routeVer='latest'
docker rm -f routed
sleep 2
docker run --net host --name routed --rm -it --env-file .env -v routed:/routed -e BOLTDB_PATH=/routed/route.db xena/route:$routeVer
```
```console
# chmod +X /etc/system/routed/run
```
### Usage
Change the definition of this variable as is needed for your setup. For now this must
be publicly facing but later versions of `route` will not require this. Set this in
a variable named `ROUTED_GRPC_ADDR`:
```console
$ export ROUTED_GRPC_ADDR=h.routed.xeserv.us:7268
```
Similarly, point this to the TCP backend connections port:
```console
$ export ROUTED_TCP_BACKEND_ADDR=h.routed.xeserv.us:8757
```
Next, open `~/.netrc` in your favorite editor and add the following to the end of it:
```
machine h.routed.xeserv.us:7268
login usename
password token
```
#### Create a route
```
$ route-cli --routed-addr=$ROUTED_GRPC_ADDR route create --help
master*!+1 »»»» ./route route create --help 0|12:57:46
usage: route route create [<flags>]
create a new route
Flags:
--help Show context-sensitive help (also try
--help-long and --help-man).
--routed-addr="127.0.0.1:7268"
routed grpc address
--netrc="/Users/xena/.netrc" netrc path
--domain=DOMAIN domain for the route (if not given one will be
generated for you)
$ route-cli --routed-addr=$ROUTED_GRPC_ADDR route create
