Running

# Start
docker compose up

# Test without gateway (baseline)
curl http://127.0.0.1:12345/get

# Test with gateway (plugin applied)
curl http://127.0.0.1:10000/get

# Stop
docker compose down

Modifying Plugin Config

1. Edit the configuration.value section in envoy.yaml
2. Restart: docker compose restart envoy

Viewing Logs

# Follow Envoy logs
docker compose logs -f envoy

# WASM debug logs (enabled by --component-log-level wasm:debug)

Adding External Services

To test external HTTP/Redis calls, add services to docker-compose.yaml:

services:
  # ... existing services ...
  
  redis:
    image: redis:7-alpine
    networks:
      - wasmtest
    ports:
      - "6379:6379"

  auth-service:
    image: your-auth-service:latest
    networks:
      - wasmtest

Then add clusters to envoy.yaml:

clusters:
  # ... existing clusters ...
  
  - name: outbound|6379||redis.static
    connect_timeout: 5s
    type: LOGICAL_DNS
    dns_lookup_family: V4_ONLY
    lb_policy: ROUND_ROBIN
    load_assignment:
      cluster_name: redis
      endpoints:
        - lb_endpoints:
            - endpoint:
                address:
                  socket_address:
                    address: redis
                    port_value: 6379
