APISIX Setup

Finmars APISIX Setup Guide

Abstract

As result of that instruction you will have proxy to Exante Broker e.g. https://exante-proxy.client.com where client.com your domain

Prerequisites

Before starting make sure you have the following:

  1. A machine running Linux with Ubuntu 22.04.
  2. Docker installed on your machine.
  3. A public IP address.
  4. Generated API keys in Exante Account Page
  5. You need to convert API Key and Secret Key to Basic Auth Token String (Use any public base64 encoder, in other words it should be base64(api_key + ":" + secret_key) )

Steps to Set Up APISIX

  1. Run the APISIX Docker Container:

    docker run -d --name apache-apisix -p 9080:9080 -p 9443:9443 -e APISIX_STAND_ALONE=true apache/apisix

  2. Create the apisix.yaml Configuration File:

    Create a file named apisix.yaml with your desired configuration.

  3. Copy the apisix.yaml File to the APISIX Container:

    docker cp apisix.yaml apache-apisix:/var/tmp/

  4. Move the apisix.yaml File to the APISIX Configuration Directory:

    docker exec -i apache-apisix sh -c 'cp /var/tmp/apisix.yaml /usr/local/apisix/conf/'

  5. Reload the APISIX Configuration:

    docker exec -it apache-apisix apisix reload

Setting Up HTTPS

If you want your APISIX instance to listen for HTTPS connections, follow these additional steps:

  1. Obtain an SSL Certificate:

    Get or create an SSL certificate and export it along with its private key to PEM format.

  2. Update ssls.yaml:

    Put the PEM contents into the corresponding sections of ssls.yaml.

  3. Include SSL Configuration in apisix.yaml:

    Add the contents of ssls.yaml to apisix.yaml before the #END instruction.
