fortio v1.9.0 Release Notes

Release Date: 2020-10-07 // over 3 years ago

  • Pretty big new feature (#160): you can now optionally open server ports for which every request made to that port gets forwarded to 1+ destination URLs and the combined data is returned.

    This is using the new -M multi flag (or as a library fhttp.MultiServer)

    For instance fortio proxies -M "5554 http://svc1:8080/echo http://svc2:8080/echo" will forward incoming requests on 5554 to svc1 and svc2.

    🛰 By default all headers and request type (URI, query args, method (POST vs GET), payload etc) are mirrored, alternatively if you pass -multi-mirror-origin=false then only distributed tracing headers are passed and the target request is as specified
