kubernetes ingress with multiple target-rewrite

3/27/2018

Usually ingress rewrite target works as follows:

nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/rewrite-target: /

This will rewrite the target of your service names as they are in the root directory. So if I have this:

apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: demo-ingress
  annotations:
    nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/rewrite-target: /
spec:
  tls:
  rules:
    http:
      paths:
      - path: /
        backend:
          serviceName: front-main
          servicePort: 80
      - path: /api
        backend:
          serviceName: back-main
          servicePort: 80

My services are going to receive data as they are in /. However, I would like for my service front-main to send root / and for the server back-main to send /someotherpath/. How can I do this?

Is there something like the following line?

nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/rewrite-target: "front-main: / ; back-main: /someotherpath"

I don't seem to find the answer in the documentation.

Another solution is create two ingress yaml files

Each one using different annotations. It works!

Unfortunately, Ingress based on free version of Nginx do not have that feature.

But, if you can use Nginx Plus based Ingress, you can do it by annotation.

Here is an example from official repo:

apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
  name: cafe-ingress
  annotations:
    nginx.org/rewrites: "serviceName=tea-svc rewrite=/;serviceName=coffee-svc rewrite=/beans/"
spec:
  rules:
  - host: cafe.example.com
    http:
      paths:
      - path: /tea/
        backend:
          serviceName: tea-svc
          servicePort: 80
      - path: /coffee/
        backend:
          serviceName: coffee-svc
          servicePort: 80

Below are the examples of how the URI of requests to the tea-svc are rewritten (Note that the /tea requests are redirected to /tea/).

/tea/ -> /
/tea/abc -> /abc

Below are the examples of how the URI of requests to the coffee-svc are rewritten (Note that the /coffee requests are redirected to /coffee/).

/coffee/ -> /beans/
/coffee/abc -> /beans/abc
