Routing

Developers can specifies the routing configuration of the app. The routing behavior is based on simple rules:

• The request path is matched against configured path prefix.
• The longest matched prefix would be used.
• Path with /_prefix is reserved for Skygear built-in APIs.

For example, in the following configuration:

deployments:
  - name: backend
    path: /api
    port: 8080
    # ...
  - name: frontend
    path: /
    port: 8080
    # ...

Requests would be routed to:

• /: micro-service frontend
• /api: micro-service backend
• /login: micro-service frontend
• /api/blogs: micro-service backend
• /_auth/login: Skygear Auth APIs

Requests with unmatched paths would be responded with status code 404.
