The KrakenD Enterprise Playground
The KrakenD Enterprise Playground is a Docker Compose demonstration environment that puts together the necessary pieces to get you started with our API Gateway, using example use-cases.
As KrakenD is an API gateway, we have added surrounding services:
- Internal and third-party services that feed the gateway
- Authentication/authorization examples, including JWT token-based authentication with Auth0 integration, a JWT token revoker, API-Key-based authentication, and basic authentication.
- Static assets to test the by KrakenD Static Server based on disk content
- Integrations with Grafana+Influx (metrics), ELK (log storing and visualization), and Jaeger (tracing).
An environment ready to use!
The KrakenD Enterprise Playground can be managed easily using customized make
commands. Once up & running, you can fire up your browser, curl
, Postman, httpie or anything else you use to interact with the services.
Start the stack included in docker-compose
$ make start
Follow the KrakenD logs after the complete stack is up & running
$ make logs
Shut down the complete stack, removing all the volumes
$ make stop
Have a look at the docker-compose.yml
file to understand how these services interact together, and also at the krakend.json
file to find out what endpoints are exposed.
