A Distributed Java Reverse Proxy

Start Carapace by running ./run.sh script. This just launch the server, the ui and load a ready to use dynamic configuration. Server will start at http://localhost:8001/ui/#/ and https://localhost:4001/ui/#/ with no authentication required.

To launch/update the ui only, run ./carapace-ui/deploy.sh

To bundle the project into a .zip archive for a standalone installation run mvn clean install -DskipTests -Pproduction. You'll find the generated zip in carapace-server/target/carapace-server-X.Y.Z-SNAPSHOT.zip

To install Carapace, just unzip the carapace.zip archive and then run ./bin/service server start [custom-server.properties] (default server.properties is loaded). The server will start at hostname:port as defined in the server.properties file loaded.

You can build carapace docker image by running:

mvn clean install -DskipTests -Pproduction
docker/build.sh

Then you can run the container and the admin interface will be listening on 0.0.0.0:8001

docker run -p 8001:8001 carapace/carapace-server:latest

You can also pass system properties using docker option -e with the prefix CARAPACE:

docker run -p 8001:8001 -e CARAPACE_mode=cluster -e CARAPACE_zkAddress=localhost:2181 carapace/carapace-server:latest

You can run a simple 1-node cluster using the docker-compose.yml file. This starts a Carapace node (with embedded bookkeeper and herddb) and Zookeeper. The replication factor of bookkeeper in this case will be set to 1.

docker compose up -d
