Kong Python Plugin Server

kong-python-pluginserver

Plugin server for Python language support in Kong plugin.

Requires Kong >= 2.0.0.

Run the plugin server

git clone https://github.com/fffonion/kong-python-pluginserver
python3 ./setup.py install
kong-pluginserver -s KONG_PREFIX/go_pluginserver.sock

Configure Kong

Add the following line into kong.conf:

plugins=bundled,py-hello,py-image
go_plugins_dir=/your/path/to/python/plugins/dir

For example, to test examples, clone kong-python-pluginserver to /dir1/kong-python-pluginserver and set go_plugins_dir to /dir1/kong-python-pluginserver/examples

Enable the plugin

Same step as it's a Lua plugin.

Notes

• All PDK API supported by Go Plugin Server is supported.
• If your plugin is CPU-hungry, consider run in a seperate thread. In current gevent model, spending too much time in CPU work will block other requests.
• Currently you can't run Go plugins and Python plugins at the same time, as Kong only accepts one plugin server socket.

TODO

• Tests
• Hot reload
