feat(test): add reconfiguration completion detection plugin

Open hanshuebner opened this issue 5 months ago • 0 comments

Summary

Unlike the previous implementation, this one does not require changes to Kong and its proxy path. It works based on the assumption that the order of admin API changes is preserved. The admin API client marks the end of the changes that it needs to see propagated to the data plane(s) by changing the configuration of this plugin, setting a particular configuration version number. On the proxy path, a header X-Kong-Configuration-Version is sent with that version number. The plugin's access handler verifies that the version number configured in the plugin (on the dataplane) matches the version number requested by the client. If the version numbers do not match, a 503 error is generated, which causes the client to retry.
