Installing custom plugins on Kong

[Alexanderdorow]

I'm trying to install a custom plugin on Wicked Kong, but so far without success. I'm running the developer environment and already tried do the configuration inside the kong docker's container. Have you ever gone through the scenario of needing a custom plugin or knows how to install one?

Ping @santokhsingh @maksimlikharev - aren’t you doing this? Can you give some pointers?

[maksimlikharev]

both vagrant and docker distributions of kong supports custom plugins configuration, please see the following:

More Info:

If you wish to link your custom plugin to the docker kong image which is being used by wicked you could do as follows. Here are the changes which I did to docker-compose.yml to hook my custom plugin

kong: image: wicked.kong:local depends_on:

• "kong-database" links:
• kong-database:kong-database security_opt:
• seccomp:unconfined volumes:
• "/path/to/your/plugins/kong/plugins/your-plugin:/usr/local/share/lua/5.1/kong/plugins/your-plugin" ports:
• "8000:8000"
• "8443:8443"
• "8001:8001" restart: unless-stopped environment:
• "PROXY_SSL_KEY"
• "PROXY_SSL_CERT"
• "KONG_CUSTOM_PLUGINS=your-plugin"
