Sentinel Spring Cloud Zuul Adapter

Zuul does not provide rateLimit function, If use default SentinelRibbonFilter route filter. it wrapped by Hystrix Command. so only provide Service level circuit protect.

Sentinel can provide ServiceId level and API Path level flow control for spring cloud zuul gateway service.

Note: this project is for zuul 1.

How to use

1. Add maven dependency

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.cloud</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-cloud-alibaba-sentinel-zuul</artifactId>
    <version>x.y.z</version>
</dependency>

2. Set application.property

// default value is false
spring.cloud.sentinel.zuul.enabled=true

How it works

As Zuul run as per thread per connection block model, we add filters around route Filter to trace sentinel statistics.

• SentinelPreFilter: Get an entry of resource,the first order is ServiceId, then API Path.
• SentinelPostFilter: When success response,exit entry.
• SentinelErrorFilter: When get an Exception, trace the exception and exit context.

the order of Filter can be changed by configuration:

spring.cloud.sentinel.zuul.order.post=0
spring.cloud.sentinel.zuul.order.pre=10000
spring.cloud.sentinel.zuul.order.error=-1

Filters create structure like:

EntranceNode: machine-root(t:3 pq:0 bq:0 tq:0 rt:0 prq:0 1mp:0 1mb:0 1mt:0)
-EntranceNode: coke(t:2 pq:0 bq:0 tq:0 rt:0 prq:0 1mp:0 1mb:0 1mt:0)
--coke(t:2 pq:0 bq:0 tq:0 rt:0 prq:0 1mp:0 1mb:0 1mt:0)
---/coke/uri(t:0 pq:0 bq:0 tq:0 rt:0 prq:0 1mp:0 1mb:0 1mt:0)
-EntranceNode: sentinel_default_context(t:0 pq:0 bq:0 tq:0 rt:0 prq:0 1mp:0 1mb:0 1mt:0)
-EntranceNode: book(t:1 pq:0 bq:0 tq:0 rt:0 prq:0 1mp:0 1mb:0 1mt:0)
--book(t:1 pq:0 bq:0 tq:0 rt:0 prq:0 1mp:0 1mb:0 1mt:0)
---/book/uri(t:0 pq:0 bq:0 tq:0 rt:0 prq:0 1mp:0 1mb:0 1mt:0)

book and coke are serviceId.

---/book/uri is api path, the real uri is /uri.

Custom Fallbacks

Implements SentinelFallbackProvider to define your own Fallback Provider when Sentinel Block Exception throwing for different rout. the default Fallback Provider is DefaultBlockFallbackProvider.

By default Fallback route is ServiveId + URI PATH, example /book/coke, first book is serviceId, /uri is URI PATH, so both
can be needed.

Here is an example:

// custom provider 
public class MyCokeServiceBlockFallbackProvider implements SentinelFallbackProvider {

    private Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger(DefaultBlockFallbackProvider.class);
    
    // you can define root as service level 
    @Override
    public String getRoute() {
        return "/coke/uri";
    }

    @Override
    public ClientHttpResponse fallbackResponse(String route, Throwable cause) {
        if (cause instanceof BlockException) {
            logger.info("get in fallback block exception:{}", cause);
            return response(HttpStatus.TOO_MANY_REQUESTS, route);
        } else {
            return response(HttpStatus.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR, route);
        }
    }
 }

Custom Request Origin Parser

By default this adapter use DefaultRequestOriginParser to parse sentinel origin.

public class CustomRequestOriginParser implements RequestOriginParser {
    @Override
    public String parseOrigin(HttpServletRequest request) {
        // do custom logic.
        return "";
    }
}

Custom UrlCleaner

By default this adapter use DefaultUrlCleaner to define uri resource.

public class CustomUrlCleaner implements UrlCleaner {

    @Override
    public String clean(String originUrl) {
        // do custom logic.
        return originUrl;
    }
}
