Ambassador: We want regex pattern rewrite

[FrostyLeaf]

Hope ambassador to support some rules like below:

      getambassador.io/config: |
        ---
        apiVersion: ambassador/v0
        kind:  Mapping
        name:  regex_pattern_mapping
        prefix_regex: true
        prefix: /svc/([\w-]+)/([\w-]+)/
        service: $2.$1:80
        host_rewrite: $2.$1
        ---
        apiVersion: ambassador/v0
        kind:  Mapping
        name:  regex_pattern_mapping2
        prefix_regex: true
        prefix: /svc/{namespace}/{svcname}/
        service: $namespace.$svcname:80
        host_rewrite: $namespace.$svcname

PR would be great. (Or at least, an investigation into whether or not this is a supported Envoy feature.)

This looks good:

not stale

It looks like envoy support for this recently landed https://github.com/envoyproxy/envoy/pull/10050. Regex-based path rewriting would be really helpful for us, too.

I would implement this if I know how to do it :). May I help in any form?

This would be really helpful.

FYI the Ambassador's regex_rewrite feature is just released today. You can read more about it here in docs.

@alphashr, cool! Thanks for reminding me. This can be helpful.
