Features

  • Export
    Existing Kong configuration to a YAML configuration file This can be used to backup Kong's configuration.
  • Import
    Kong's database can be populated using the exported or a hand written config file.
  • Diff and sync capabilities
    decK can diff the configuration in the config file and the configuration in Kong's DB and then sync it as well. This can be used to detect config drifts or manual interventions.
  • Reverse sync
    decK supports a sync the other way as well, meaning if an entity is created in Kong and doesn't add it to the config file, decK will detect the change.
  • Validation
    decK can validate a YAML file that you backup or modify to catch errors early on.
  • Reset
    This can be used to drops all entities in Kong's DB.
  • Parallel operations
    All Admin API calls to Kong are executed in parallel using multiple threads to speed up the sync process.
  • Authentication with Kong Custom HTTP headers can be injected in requests to Kong's Admin API for authentication/authorization purposes.
  • Manage Kong's config with multiple config file
    Split your Kong's configuration into multiple logical files based on a shared set of tags amongst entities.
  • Designed to automate configuration management
    decK is designed to be part of your CI pipeline and can be used to not only push configuration to Kong but also detect drifts in configuration.
