- Document the --backend-addr flag: it is the stub upstream service Traefik proxies allowed requests to (the traefik/whoami equivalent), not AppSec. - Move the .cache/ ignore rule from the per-suite .gitignore to the repo root .gitignore, and make the wording accurate: the cache persists across local runs but is recreated on every (fresh-runner) CI run.

# Binary e2e suite (Traefik binary + mock LAPI)
|
|
|
|
This suite runs **Traefik as a downloaded binary** with the plugin loaded from
|
|
the local source tree, and replaces Crowdsec with a small **HTTP mock**
|
|
([`mocklapi/`](mocklapi/main.go), a stdlib-only Go command). No Docker, no real
|
|
Crowdsec.
|
|
|
|
It is what **CI runs** (`make e2e_mock`). The Docker suite in
|
|
[`../scenarios`](../scenarios) is kept for local debugging against a real
|
|
Crowdsec, but is not exercised in CI.
|
|
|
|
## Scope — what this suite does and does NOT test
|
|
|
|
These tests validate the **plugin's own behaviour**: the request flow through
|
|
the Traefik middleware, the live / none / stream modes, caching, trusted-IP
|
|
bypass, and ban / captcha page rendering.
|
|
|
|
They deliberately **do not** test that Crowdsec or its AppSec engine work
|
|
correctly — that is validated and owned by the upstream maintainer
|
|
([@maxlerebourg](https://github.com/maxlerebourg)), not by this plugin. The
|
|
mock only emulates the slice of the LAPI HTTP contract the plugin consumes.
|
|
|
|
So please **don't open issues here about Crowdsec/AppSec detection accuracy**
|
|
based on this suite: the AppSec scenario is intentionally absent, and the mock
|
|
returns whatever decisions the test tells it to.
|
|
|
|
## What runs
|
|
|
|
| Component | How |
|
|
|-----------|-----|
|
|
| Traefik | Binary `v3.7.1`, downloaded into `.cache/` (reused across local runs; re-downloaded on fresh CI runners) |
|
|
| Plugin | Loaded via `experimental.localPlugins` from the repo root (symlinked into `plugins-local/`) |
|
|
| LAPI | `mocklapi` — a stdlib-only Go command (its own nested module), compiled and cached under `.cache/`, driven through `/admin` endpoints instead of `cscli` |
|
|
| Backend | A plain HTTP responder built into the mock |
|
|
|
|
Fixed ports (override with env vars if needed): Traefik `8000`, LAPI `8090`,
|
|
backend `8091`.
|
|
|
|
## Running locally
|
|
|
|
Prerequisites: `bash`, `curl`, `go`, `tar`. On first use the Traefik binary is
|
|
fetched and the mock is compiled into `.cache/`. That cache is reused across
|
|
local runs; CI runs on fresh runners, so both are recreated on every CI run.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# one scenario
|
|
make e2e_mock_stream-mode
|
|
# or directly
|
|
./tests/e2e/mock/scenarios/stream-mode/run.sh
|
|
|
|
# the whole suite
|
|
make e2e_mock
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Layout
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
mock/
|
|
lib/
|
|
common.sh # stack lifecycle, Traefik download, mock build, assertions, admin client
|
|
traefik.yml # static Traefik config (shared by all scenarios)
|
|
mocklapi/
|
|
go.mod # nested module — kept out of the plugin's build/lint/vendor
|
|
main.go # mock LAPI + backend
|
|
scenarios/
|
|
<name>/
|
|
dynamic.yml # Traefik dynamic config (router + bouncer middleware + backend)
|
|
run.sh # assertions for the scenario
|
|
*.html # optional fixtures (ban / captcha templates)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`dynamic.yml` uses placeholders (`@@APIKEY@@`, `@@LAPI_HOST@@`,
|
|
`@@BACKEND_URL@@`, `@@SCENARIO_DIR@@`) that `common.sh` substitutes at runtime.
|
|
|
|
## Adding a scenario
|
|
|
|
1. Create `scenarios/<name>/dynamic.yml` and `run.sh` (copy `stream-mode/` as a
|
|
template).
|
|
2. In `run.sh`, define a `body` function with the assertions and call
|
|
`run_scenario "<name>" "$HERE" body`.
|
|
3. Drive decisions with `lapi_add_decision <ip> [type] [duration]`,
|
|
`lapi_delete_decision <ip>`, `lapi_reset`.
|
|
4. Add `<name>` to `E2E_MOCK_SCENARIOS` in the `Makefile`.
