README Kubernetes section: what a Middleware CR edit actually does (Traefik builds a new instance, warm-fills discovery, swaps it in; requests in flight finish on the old one), what survives a rebuild (Redis-backed counters and cache — windowKey's key never carries instance identity) vs what resets (in-memory fallback counters, down-latches, the discovery cache), why new models via discovery need no config edit, why the users Secret must be a whole-volume mount (subPath never receives a kubelet update) and how the plugin's own 5s mtime poll picks up the resulting symlink swap, and why a file-provider dynamic config needs directory: rather than filename: in Kubernetes (ConfigMap symlink swap) and under Docker Desktop (VirtioFS fsnotify) alike. examples/kubernetes.yaml: annotated the existing (already-correct, no-subPath) users Secret volume mount explaining why subPath would silently break Secret updates, so a future edit doesn't 'simplify' it into one.

# Example Kubernetes deployment of the LLM Gateway Traefik plugin: a
|
|
# Secret holding the file-backed users list, a Middleware custom resource
|
|
# carrying the plugin's own configuration, and a router wiring both onto a
|
|
# host. See ../README.md for the full configuration reference and
|
|
# ../.traefik.yml for the catalog-facing plugin manifest.
|
|
#
|
|
# Provider API keys are NOT put in this file. They are read by the plugin
|
|
# at startup via "env:VAR_NAME" (see the Middleware below), which means
|
|
# they must be set as environment variables on the Traefik pod itself —
|
|
# see the Helm values snippet at the bottom of this file.
|
|
#
|
|
# The empty-map gotcha: write an empty group as `providers: []`, never a
|
|
# bare `{}`. Confirmed against Traefik's file provider, twice, with this
|
|
# exact plugin build (examples/docker-compose.yml, plus an isolated
|
|
# minimal repro outside that demo's compose-specific config mechanism): a
|
|
# bare `default: {}` fails plugin construction with
|
|
# "expected a map, got 'string'"; an explicit empty list decodes
|
|
# correctly and means the same thing (all values allowed). Whether the
|
|
# Kubernetes CRD provider used below hits the same decode path as the
|
|
# file provider is NOT verified — this file uses the empty-list form
|
|
# defensively, not because the CRD path is confirmed affected.

# Helm values snippet (traefik/traefik-helm-chart) — illustrative, verify
|
|
# field names against the chart version you deploy. Two things are
|
|
# required beyond a stock install:
|
|
#
|
|
# 1. Load the plugin. Either the catalog form (once this plugin is listed
|
|
# in the Traefik Plugin Catalog, see ../.traefik.yml) or localPlugins,
|
|
# mounting this repository's source into the Traefik pod the same way
|
|
# ../examples/docker-compose.yml does for its local demo:
|
|
#
|
|
# experimental:
|
|
# plugins:
|
|
# llmgateway:
|
|
# moduleName: "github.com/lukaszraczylo/traefik-llmgateway"
|
|
# version: "v0.1.0"
|
|
#
|
|
# 2. Every "env:VAR_NAME" secret this Middleware references as env vars,
|
|
# sourced from Secrets — never inlined into the Middleware CR above.
|
|
# This is NOT just the three provider keys and the Redis password:
|
|
# LLMGW_ADMIN_KEY (the "dashboard-admin" user above) resolves at
|
|
# construction time too, so it must be set here even while
|
|
# admin.enabled is false — an unset "env:" var is a hard construction
|
|
# error regardless of whether the feature it gates is on.
