# Route

Provides HTTP routing, reverse proxy, file serving, and TCP/UDP stream proxying for GoDoxy.

## Overview

The `internal/route` package implements the core routing system for GoDoxy. It handles reverse proxying HTTP requests, serving static files, and proxying TCP/UDP streams. Routes can be discovered from Docker containers, YAML files, or remote agents.

### Primary Consumers

- **Route providers**: Create and manage route instances
- **HTTP server**: Dispatches requests to route handlers
- **Configuration layer**: Validates and loads route configs

### Non-goals

- Does not implement container runtime operations (delegates to providers)
- Does not handle authentication (delegates to middleware/rules)
- Does not manage health checks (delegates to `internal/health/monitor`)

### Stability

Internal package with stable core types. Route configuration schema is versioned.

### Core Components

    class Route {
        +Validate() gperr.Error
        +Start(parent) gperr.Error
        +Finish(reason)
        +Started() &lt;-chan struct#123;#125;
    }

    class Metadata {
        +impl types.Route
        +task *task.Task
        +started chan struct#123;#125;
    }

    class HealthMonitor {
        +Start(parent) error
        +Healthy() bool
        +URL() string
    }

    Route --> Metadata : contains
    Route --> HealthMonitor : optional

## Configuration Surface

### Route Configuration

```go
type Route struct {
    Alias  string       `json:"alias"`
    Scheme Scheme       `json:"scheme"`
    Host   string       `json:"host,omitempty"`
    Port   Port         `json:"port"`

    SPA    bool         `json:"spa,omitempty"`
    Index  string       `json:"index,omitempty"`
    // ... additional fields
}
```

### Docker Labels

  proxy.aliases: myapp
  proxy.myapp.port: 3000
```

### YAML Configuration

```yaml
routes:
  myapp:
    scheme: http
    root: /var/www/myapp
    spa: true
```

| Dependency                       | Purpose                          |
| -------------------------------- | -------------------------------- |
| `internal/route/routes`          | Route registry and lookup        |
| `internal/route/rules`           | Request/response rule processing |
| `internal/route/stream`          | TCP/UDP stream proxying          |
| `internal/route/provider`        | Route discovery and loading      |

## Observability

### Logs

- **INFO**: Route start/stop, validation results
- **DEBUG**: Request processing details
- **ERROR**: Proxy failures, health check failures

Log context includes: `alias`, `host`, `method`, `path`, `status`

### Metrics

Health check metrics via `internal/health/monitor`:

- `health_check_total`
- `health_check_failure_total`
- `health_check_duration_seconds`

## Security Considerations

- Route matching validates host and path patterns
- Upstream URL validation prevents SSRF attacks
- Rules engine can enforce authentication/authorization
- ACL integration available for IP-based access control

## Failure Modes and Recovery

| Failure                   | Behavior                   | Recovery                    |
| ------------------------- | -------------------------- | --------------------------- |
| Backend unavailable       | Returns 502 error          | Fix backend service         |
| Health check fails        | Route marked unhealthy     | Fix backend health endpoint |
| Route validation fails    | Route excluded with reason | Fix configuration           |
| TLS handshake fails       | Connection error           | Fix certificates            |
| Load balancer no backends | Returns 503 error          | Add healthy backends        |

## Usage Examples

### Creating a Basic HTTP Route

```go
route := &route.Route{
    Alias:  "myapp",
    Scheme: route.SchemeHTTP,
    Host:   "myapp.local",
    Port:   route.Port{Proxy: 8080, Target: 3000},
}

if err := route.Validate(); err != nil {
    return err
}

if err := route.Start(parent); err != nil {
    return err
}
```

### Route with Health Check

```go
route := &route.Route{
    Alias: "myservice",
    HealthCheck: types.HealthCheckConfig{
        Path:     "/health",
        Interval: 30 * time.Second,
        Timeout:  5 * time.Second,
    },
}
```

### File Server Route

```go
route := &route.Route{
    Alias:  "files",
    Scheme: route.SchemeFileServer,
    Root:   "/var/www/files",
    SPA:    false,
    Index:  "index.html",
}
```

## Testing Notes

- Unit tests for validation logic
- Integration tests with real backends
- Mock health monitors for testing
- Route exclusion tests cover all reason codes
