Run Zuul & Api Servers

run zuul gateway proxy

• mvn spring-boot:run -Dspring-boot.run.profiles=zuul -Dstart-class=com.marcuschiu.zuulexample.zuul.ZuulExampleApplication

run api server

• mvn spring-boot:run -Dspring-boot.run.profiles=api -Dstart-class=com.marcuschiu.zuulexample.api.ApiApplication

Test Zuul Gateway Proxy

Test 1

open browser at:

• http://localhost8080/default/test

this hits the API server directly

Test 2

open browser at:

• http://localhost:8888/teehee/default/test

this hits the zuul server, which then intercepts it and makes a call to

• http://localhost:8080/default/test

this is because of the application-zuul.yml file:

zuul:
  routes:
    ...
    teehee:
      path: /teehee/**
      url: http://localhost:8080

Test 3

open browser at:

• http://localhost:8888/default/test

this hits the zuul server, which then intercepts it and makes a call to

• http://localhost:8080/default/test

this is because of the application-zuul.yml file:

zuul:
  routes:
    foos:
      path: /default/test
      url: http://localhost:8080
