Hello,
I am pretty new to Kong and I was trying to bring up a Kong IC (non-DB mode) on my self-managed K8s cluster using the default helm charts as per documentation (kong/ingress chart).
- I got both controller & gateway pods running without any issue and when I look up the Dashboard (Gateway UI), I can not find any plugins in it (I need both JWT & JWT2HEADER plugins) and I am unable to install any plugins in the UI screen
- When I manually printed out all ENV variables from the gateway-pod, I see KONG_PLUGINS=bundled.
a) Does anyone know which plugins come by default (“bundled”) and in case JWT & JWT2HEADER plugins is already present, how do I enable this?
b) In case these are not present in “bundled” mode, do I need to inject JWT & JWT2HEADER plugin manually as per this documentation Custom Plugins - Kong Ingress Controller | Kong Docs
Would appreciate any help on this topic.
Thanks,
Anand
As an update, I looked through the gateway pod file system under /usr/local/share/lua/5.1/kong/plugins/ folder and it lists the following folders:
$ ls /usr/local/share/lua/5.1/kong/plugins/
acl aws-lambda grpc-gateway loggly redirect statsd
acme azure-functions grpc-web oauth2 request-size-limiting syslog
ai-prompt-decorator basic-auth hmac-auth opentelemetry request-termination tcp-log
ai-prompt-guard bot-detection http-log post-function request-transformer udp-log
ai-prompt-template correlation-id ip-restriction pre-function response-ratelimiting zipkin
ai-proxy cors jwt prometheus response-transformer
ai-request-transformer datadog key-auth proxy-cache session
ai-response-transformer file-log ldap-auth rate-limiting standard-webhooks
Does this mean, all these plugins are already bundled? If so, should we enable them before we start using any of them and what is the config to do so.
Thanks,
Anand
