providersThrottleDuration
: Providers throttle duration: minimum duration in seconds between 2 events from providers before applying a new configuration. It avoids unnecessary reloads if multiples events are sent in a short amount of time.
Can be provided in a format supported by time.ParseDuration or as raw values (digits). If no units are provided, the value is parsed assuming seconds. -
maxIdleConnsPerHost
: Controls the maximum idle (keep-alive) connections to keep per-host.
If zero,DefaultMaxIdleConnsPerHost
from the Go standard library net/http module is used. If you encounter 'too many open files' errors, you can either increase this value or change theulimit
. -
insecureSkipVerify
: If set to true invalid SSL certificates are accepted for backends.
Note: This disables detection of man-in-the-middle attacks so should only be used on secure backend networks. -
rootCAs
: Register Certificates in the RootCA. This certificates will be use for backends calls.
Note You can use file path or cert content directly -
defaultEntryPoints
: Entrypoints to be used by frontends that do not specify any entrypoint.
Each frontend can specify its own entrypoints. -
keepTrailingSlash
: Tells Traefik whether it should keep the trailing slashes that might be present in the paths of incoming requests (true), or if it should redirect to the slashless version of the URL (default behavior: false)
!!! note
Beware that the value of keepTrailingSlash
can have a significant impact on the way your frontend rules are interpreted.
The table below tries to sum up several behaviors depending on requests/configurations.
The current default behavior is deprecated and kept for compatibility reasons.
As a consequence, we encourage you to set keepTrailingSlash
to true.
| Incoming request | keepTrailingSlash | Path:{value} | Behavior
|----------------------|-------------------|--------------|----------------------------|
| http://foo.com/path/ | false | Path:/path/ | Proceeds with the request |
| http://foo.com/path/ | false | Path:/path | 301 to http://foo.com/path |
| http://foo.com/path | false | Path:/path/ | Proceeds with the request |
| http://foo.com/path | false | Path:/path | Proceeds with the request |
| http://foo.com/path/ | true | Path:/path/ | Proceeds with the request |
| http://foo.com/path/ | true | Path:/path | 404 |
| http://foo.com/path | true | Path:/path/ | 404 |
| http://foo.com/path | true | Path:/path | Proceeds with the request |
Constraints
In a micro-service architecture, with a central service discovery, setting constraints limits Traefik scope to a smaller number of routes.
Traefik filters services according to service attributes/tags set in your providers.
Supported filters:
tag
Simple
# Simple matching constraint
constraints = ["tag==api"]
# Simple mismatching constraint
constraints = ["tag!=api"]
# Globbing
constraints = ["tag==us-*"]
Multiple
# Multiple constraints
# - "tag==" must match with at least one tag
# - "tag!=" must match with none of tags
constraints = ["tag!=us-*", "tag!=asia-*"]
provider-specific
Supported Providers:
- Docker
- Consul K/V
- BoltDB
- Zookeeper
- ECS
- Etcd
- Consul Catalog
- Rancher
- Marathon
- Kubernetes (using a provider-specific mechanism based on label selectors)
# Provider-specific constraint
[consulCatalog]
# ...
constraints = ["tag==api"]
# Provider-specific constraint
[marathon]
# ...
constraints = ["tag==api", "tag!=v*-beta"]
Custom Error pages
Custom error pages can be returned, in lieu of the default, according to frontend-configured ranges of HTTP Status codes.
In the example below, if a 503 status is returned from the frontend "website", the custom error page at http://2.3.4.5/503.html is returned with the actual status code set in the HTTP header.
!!! note
The 503.html
page itself is not hosted on Traefik, but some other infrastructure.
[frontends]
[frontends.website]
backend = "website"
[frontends.website.errors]
[frontends.website.errors.network]
status = ["500-599"]
backend = "error"
query = "/{status}.html"
[frontends.website.routes.website]
rule = "Host: website.mydomain.com"
[backends]
[backends.website]
[backends.website.servers.website]
url = "https://1.2.3.4"
[backends.error]
[backends.error.servers.error]
url = "http://2.3.4.5"
In the above example, the error page rendered was based on the status code.
Instead, the query parameter can also be set to some generic error page like so: query = "/500s.html"
Now the 500s.html
error page is returned for the configured code range.
The configured status code ranges are inclusive; that is, in the above example, the 500s.html
page will be returned for status codes 500
through, and including, 599
.
Rate limiting
Rate limiting can be configured per frontend.
Multiple sets of rates can be added to each frontend, but the time periods must be unique.
[frontends]
[frontends.frontend1]
# ...
[frontends.frontend1.ratelimit]
extractorfunc = "client.ip"
[frontends.frontend1.ratelimit.rateset.rateset1]
period = "10s"
average = 100
burst = 200
[frontends.frontend1.ratelimit.rateset.rateset2]
period = "3s"
average = 5
burst = 10
In the above example, frontend1 is configured to limit requests by the client's ip address.
An average of 5 requests every 3 seconds is allowed and an average of 100 requests every 10 seconds.
These can "burst" up to 10 and 200 in each period respectively.
Valid values for extractorfunc
are:
client.ip
request.host
request.header.<header name>
Buffering
In some cases request/buffering can be enabled for a specific backend. By enabling this, Traefik will read the entire request into memory (possibly buffering large requests into disk) and will reject requests that are over a specified limit. This may help services deal with large data (multipart/form-data for example) more efficiently and should minimise time spent when sending data to a backend server.
For more information please check oxy/buffer documentation.
Example configuration:
[backends]
[backends.backend1]
[backends.backend1.buffering]
maxRequestBodyBytes = 10485760
memRequestBodyBytes = 2097152
maxResponseBodyBytes = 10485760
memResponseBodyBytes = 2097152
retryExpression = "IsNetworkError() && Attempts() <= 2"
Retry Configuration
# Enable retry sending request if network error
[retry]
# Number of attempts
#
# Optional
# Default: (number servers in backend) -1
#
# attempts = 3
Health Check Configuration
# Enable custom health check options.
[healthcheck]
# Set the default health check interval and timeout.
#
# Optional
# Default: "30s"
#
# interval = "30s"
# timeout = "5s"
interval
sets the default health check interval.timeout
sets the default health check request timeout.
These options will only be effective if health check paths are defined. Given provider-specific support, the value may be overridden on a per-backend basis. Can be provided in a format supported by time.ParseDuration or as raw values (digits). If no units are provided, the value is parsed assuming seconds. Note: the interval must be greater than the timeout. If configuration doesn't reflect this, the interval will be set to timeout + 1 second.
Life Cycle
Controls the behavior of Traefik during the shutdown phase.
[lifeCycle]
# Duration to keep accepting requests prior to initiating the graceful
# termination period (as defined by the `graceTimeOut` option). This
# option is meant to give downstream load-balancers sufficient time to
# take Traefik out of rotation.
# Can be provided in a format supported by [time.ParseDuration](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#ParseDuration) or as raw values (digits).
# If no units are provided, the value is parsed assuming seconds.
# The zero duration disables the request accepting grace period, i.e.,
# Traefik will immediately proceed to the grace period.
#
# Optional
# Default: 0
#
# requestAcceptGraceTimeout = "10s"
# Duration to give active requests a chance to finish before Traefik stops.
# Can be provided in a format supported by [time.ParseDuration](https://golang.org/pkg/time/#ParseDuration) or as raw values (digits).
# If no units are provided, the value is parsed assuming seconds.
# Note: in this time frame no new requests are accepted.
#
# Optional
# Default: "10s"
#
# graceTimeOut = "10s"
Timeouts

#
# idleTimeout = "360s"
