Getting Started

Configuration

# 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.

`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

$ docker volume create routed

Initial Setup

$ 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:

#!/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

# 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:

$ export ROUTED_GRPC_ADDR=h.routed.xeserv.us:7268

Similarly, point this to the TCP backend connections port:

$ 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
86d50f43-221d-4a57-99c9-8056dea0f12c
$ route-cli --routed-addr=$ROUTED_GRPC_ADDR route list

Connect a backend

In another terminal window:

$ route-cli test-server

In yet another terminal window:

$ route-httpagent -token=<token from above> -domain=<domain from above> -server=$ROUTED_TCP_BACKEND_ADDR

Now to your main terminal window:
