Contrary to haproxy, httpterm does not support all the HTTP protocols. Furthermore, it has become easier to handle inbound/outbound connections/streams since the rework done at conn_stream level. This patch implements httpterm HTTP server services into haproxy. To do so, it proceeds the same way as for the TCP checks which use only one stream connector, but on frontend side. Into haproxy, the httpterm server also instantiates a httpterm stream (hstream struct) attached to a stream connector for each incoming connection without backend stream connector. This is the role of sc_new_from_endp() called by the muxes to instantiate streams/hstreams. As for stream_new(), hstream_new() instantiates a task named process_hstream() (see httpterm.c) which has the same role as process_stream() but for httpterm streams. httpterm into haproxy takes advantage of the HTTP muxes and HTX API to support all the HTTP protocols supported by haproxy. httpterm_init.c is added to implement haproxy_init_args() which overloads the one defined by haproxy.c. This way, httpterm program uses its own argv[] parsing function. |

HAProxy
HAProxy is a free, very fast and reliable reverse-proxy offering high availability, load balancing, and proxying for TCP and HTTP-based applications.
Installation
The INSTALL file describes how to build HAProxy. A list of packages is also available on the wiki.
Getting help
The discourse and the mailing-list are available for questions or configuration assistance. You can also use the slack or IRC channel. Please don't use the issue tracker for these.
The issue tracker is only for bug reports or feature requests.
Documentation
The HAProxy documentation has been split into a number of different files for ease of use. It is available in text format as well as HTML. The wiki is also meant to replace the old architecture guide.
Please refer to the following files depending on what you're looking for:
- INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install HAProxy
- BRANCHES to understand the project's life cycle and what version to use
- LICENSE for the project's license
- CONTRIBUTING for the process to follow to submit contributions
The more detailed documentation is located into the doc/ directory:
- doc/intro.txt for a quick introduction on HAProxy
- doc/configuration.txt for the configuration's reference manual
- doc/lua.txt for the Lua's reference manual
- doc/SPOE.txt for how to use the SPOE engine
- doc/network-namespaces.txt for how to use network namespaces under Linux
- doc/management.txt for the management guide
- doc/regression-testing.txt for how to use the regression testing suite
- doc/peers.txt for the peers protocol reference
- doc/coding-style.txt for how to adopt HAProxy's coding style
- doc/internals for developer-specific documentation (not all up to date)
