envoy-control-plane for Rust

This package exposes the Envoy xDS protos and gRPC services via prost. It also enables reading JSON and YAML bootstrap files into prost-generated structs, e.g. if you have a bootstrap.yaml containing:

---
admin:
  address:
    socketAddress:
      address: "127.0.0.1"
      portValue: 9901
node:
  id: envoy-test-1
  cluster: envoy-test-cluster-1
staticResources:
  listeners:
    - name: server-1
      address:
        socketAddress:
          address: 127.0.0.1
          portValue: 9000

You can read that Bootstrap config in with:

use envoy_control_plane::envoy::config::bootstrap::v3::Bootstrap;

let config_contents = read_all(&args.config_path).await?;
let config_ext = args.config_path.extension().unwrap_or_default();
let bootstrap: Bootstrap = if config_ext == "yaml" || config_ext == "yml" {
    eprintln!("WARNING: YAML support is incomplete (e.g. durations don't work)");
    serde_yaml::from_str(&config_contents)?
} else {
    serde_json::from_str(&config_contents)?
};

Envoy uses a lot of protobuf Any values for polymorphism. As you can see above we read them off disk just fine, but there is an additional hoop to jump through in order to actually access a typed instance:

let downstream_tls_context_type_url = DownstreamTlsContext::default().type_url();

// this works for the bootstrap config above, but real code wouldn't hardcode pulling
// the value out in such a fragile way.
let bootstrap_tls_config = bootstrap
    .static_resources
    .as_ref()
    .unwrap()
    .listeners[0]
    .filter_chains[0]
    .transport_socket
    .as_ref()
    .unwrap()
    .config_type
    .as_ref()
    .unwrap();
// there are not other `ConfigType` enum variants, so this let works fine.
let ConfigType::TypedConfig(tls_any) = bootstrap_tls_config;
// because the `TypedConfig` is `Any`, we need to check the type_url
if &tls_any.type_url == downstream_tls_context_type_url {
    let ctx = DownstreamTlsContext::decode(&*tls_any.value).unwrap();
    // store or do something with the `DownstreamTlsContext` instance
} else {
    panic!("unsupported typed config: {}", &tls_any.type_url);
}

Caveats

  • Envoy's JSON/YAML support allows both camelCase and snake_case for field names, but we only support snake case (e.g. lbPolicy and not lb_policy).
  • We're using a hacked-up fork of pbjson to correctly read in Any values from JSON/YAML.
