2 KongConsumer for apikey authentication for 1 service with different path

1

Hi,
I am a new beginner of kong for kubernetes and for my case that i need to create 2 consumers and use these 2 consumers with 1 service but with different kong url, like one with /a and one with /b. so how can i use these 2 Kongconsumer for the apikey authentication?

For example, i deploy a simple service echo. And then create an ingress
apiVersion: extensions/v1beta1
kind: Ingress
metadata:
name: demo
annotations:
kubernetes.io/ingress.class: kong
spec:
rules:

  • http:
    paths:
    • path: /foo
      backend:
      serviceName: echo
      servicePort: 80
    • path: /hoo
      backend:
      serviceName: echo
      servicePort: 80

for example the key and consumer setup.
apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
name: ’ my-secret’
stringData:
kongCredType: ‘key-auth’
key: mytestkey

apiVersion: configuration.konghq.com/v1
kind: KongPlugin
metadata:
name: echo-auth
plugin: key-auth

apiVersion: configuration.konghq.com/v1
kind: KongConsumer
metadata:
name: ‘my-consumer’
annotations:
kubernetes.io/ingress.class: kong
username: ‘my-user’
credentials:

  • my-secret

apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
name: ’ my-secret1’
stringData:
kongCredType: ‘key-auth’
key: mytestkey1

apiVersion: configuration.konghq.com/v1
kind: KongConsumer
metadata:
name: ‘my-consumer1’
annotations:
kubernetes.io/ingress.class: kong
username: ‘my-user1’
credentials:

  • my-secret1

So i can access it by both /foo and /hoo, then i want to use the KongConsumer to do the auth apikey check for /foo and use kongconsumer1 to do the auth apikey check for /hoo, then what should I do?
Thanks.

From what you described so far, it seems you want to allow consumer1 to access /foo and consumer2 to access /hoo only, is that right?

If that’s true, you need to add ACL plugin.

Thank you for the info. If possible can you guide me how to set it with acl? Can you please create an example for it? Thanks.

I believe the best learning method is by exploring docs and do the tests yourself.

Please have a look at the official doc first. If you can’t get it to work, please share what you’ve tried and people can help you.
