# Contour Configuration Reference

- [Serve Flags](#serve-flags)
- [Configuration File](#configuration-file)
- [Environment Variables](#environment-variables)
- [Bootstrap Config File](#bootstrap-config-file)

## Overview

There are various ways to configure Contour, flags, the configuration file, as well as environment variables.
Contour has a precedence of configuration for contour serve, meaning anything configured in the config file is overridden by environment vars which are overridden by cli flags.

## Serve Flags

The `contour serve` command is the main command which is used to watch for Kubernetes resource and process them into Envoy configuration which is then streamed to any Envoy via its xDS gRPC connection.
There are a number of flags that can be passed to this command which further configures how Contour operates.
Many of these flags are mirrored in the [Contour Configuration File](#configuration-file).

## Configuration File

A configuration file can be passed to the `--config-path` argument of the `contour serve` command to specify additional configuration to Contour.
In most deployments, this file is passed to Contour via a ConfigMap which is mounted as a volume to the Contour pod.

The Contour configuration file is optional.
In its absence, Contour will operate with reasonable defaults.
Where Contour settings can also be specified with command-line flags, the command-line value takes precedence over the configuration file.

| Field Name | Type | Default | Description |
|------------|------|---------|-------------|
| accesslog-format | string | `envoy` | This key sets the global [access log format][2] for Envoy. Valid options are `envoy` or `json`. |
| accesslog-format-string | string | None | If present, this specifies custom access log format for Envoy. See [Envoy documentation](https://www.envoyproxy.io/docs/envoy/latest/configuration/observability/access_log/usage) for more information about the syntax. This field only has effect if `accesslog-format` is `envoy` |
| debug | boolean | `false` | Enables debug logging. |
| default-http-versions | string array | <code style="white-space:nowrap">HTTP/1.1</code> <br> <code style="white-space:nowrap">HTTP/2</code> | This array specifies the HTTP versions that Contour should program Envoy to serve. HTTP versions are specified as strings of the form "HTTP/x", where "x" represents the version number. |
| disableAllowChunkedLength | boolean | `false` | If this field is true, Contour will disable the RFC-compliant Envoy behavior to strip the `Content-Length` header if `Transfer-Encoding: chunked` is also set. This is an emergency off-switch to revert back to Envoy's default behavior in case of failures. |
| disablePermitInsecure | boolean | `false` | If this field is true, Contour will ignore `PermitInsecure` field in HTTPProxy documents. |
| envoy-service-name | string | `envoy` | This sets the service name that will be inspected for address details to be applied to Ingress objects. |
| envoy-service-namespace | string | `projectcontour` | This sets the namespace of the service that will be inspected for address details to be applied to Ingress objects. If the `CONTOUR_NAMESPACE` environment variable is present, Contour will populate this field with its value. |
| ingress-status-address | string | None | If present, this specifies the address that will be copied into the Ingress status for each Ingress that Contour manages. It is exclusive with `envoy-service-name` and `envoy-service-namespace`.|
| incluster | boolean | `false` | This field specifies that Contour is running in a Kubernetes cluster and should use the in-cluster client access configuration.  |
| json-fields | string array | [fields][5]| This is the list the field names to include in the JSON [access log format][2]. This field only has effect if `accesslog-format` is `json`. |
| kubeconfig | string | `$HOME/.kube/config` | Path to a Kubernetes [kubeconfig file][3] for when Contour is executed outside a cluster. |
| leaderelection | leaderelection | | The [leader election configuration](#leader-election-configuration). |
| policy | PolicyConfig | | The default [policy configuration](#policy-configuration). |
| tls | TLS | | The default [TLS configuration](#tls-configuration). |
| timeouts | TimeoutConfig | | The [timeout configuration](#timeout-configuration). |
| cluster | ClusterConfig | | The [cluster configuration](#cluster-configuration). |
| network | NetworkConfig | | The [network configuration](#network-configuration). |
| listener | ListenerConfig | | The [listener configuration](#listener-configuration). |
| server | ServerConfig |  | The [server configuration](#server-configuration) for `contour serve` command. |
| gateway | GatewayConfig |  | The [gateway-api Gateway configuration](#gateway-configuration). |
| rateLimitService | RateLimitServiceConfig | | The [rate limit service configuration](#rate-limit-service-configuration). |
| enableExternalNameService | boolean | `false` | Enable ExternalName Service processing. Enabling this has security implications. Please see the [advisory](https://github.com/projectcontour/contour/security/advisories/GHSA-5ph6-qq5x-7jwc) for more details. |

### TLS Configuration

The TLS configuration block can be used to configure default values for how
Contour should provision TLS hosts.

| Field Name | Type| Default  | Description |
|------------|-----|----------|-------------|
| minimum-protocol-version| string | `1.2` | This field specifies the minimum TLS protocol version that is allowed. Valid options are `1.2` (default) and `1.3`. Any other value defaults to TLS 1.2. |
| fallback-certificate | | | [Fallback certificate configuration](#fallback-certificate). |
| envoy-client-certificate | | | [Client certificate configuration for Envoy](#envoy-client-certificate). |
| cipher-suites | []string | See [config package documentation](https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/projectcontour/contour/pkg/config#pkg-variables) | This field specifies the TLS ciphers to be supported by TLS listeners when negotiating TLS 1.2. This parameter should only be used by advanced users. Note that this is ignored when TLS 1.3 is in use. The set of ciphers that are allowed is a superset of those supported by default in stock, non-FIPS Envoy builds and FIPS builds as specified [here](https://www.envoyproxy.io/docs/envoy/latest/api-v3/extensions/transport_sockets/tls/v3/common.proto#envoy-v3-api-field-extensions-transport-sockets-tls-v3-tlsparameters-cipher-suites). Custom ciphers not accepted by Envoy in a standard build are not supported. |

### Fallback Certificate

| Field Name | Type| Default  | Description |
|------------|-----|----------|-------------|
| name       | string | `""` | This field specifies the name of the Kubernetes secret to use as the fallback certificate.      |
| namespace  | string | `""` | This field specifies the namespace of the Kubernetes secret to use as the fallback certificate. |


### Envoy Client Certificate

| Field Name | Type| Default  | Description |
|------------|-----|----------|-------------|
| name       | string | `""` | This field specifies the name of the Kubernetes secret to use as the client certificate and private key when establishing TLS connections to the backend service. |
| namespace  | string | `""` | This field specifies the namespace of the Kubernetes secret to use as the client certificate and private key when establishing TLS connections to the backend service. |

### Leader Election Configuration

The leader election configuration block configures how a deployment with more than one Contour pod elects a leader.
The Contour leader is responsible for updating the status field on Ingress and HTTPProxy documents.
In the vast majority of deployments, only the `configmap-name` and `configmap-namespace` fields should require any configuration.

| Field Name | Type | Default | Description |
|------------|------|---------|-------------|
| configmap-name | string | `leader-elect` | The name of the ConfigMap that Contour leader election will lease. |
| configmap-namespace | string | `projectcontour` | The namespace of the ConfigMap that Contour leader election will lease. If the `CONTOUR_NAMESPACE` environment variable is present, Contour will populate this field with its value. |
| lease-duration | [duration][4] | `15s` | The duration of the leadership lease. |
| renew-deadline | [duration][4] | `10s` | The length of time that the leader will retry refreshing leadership before giving up. |
| retry-period | [duration][4] | `2s` | The interval at which Contour will attempt to the acquire leadership lease. |

### Timeout Configuration

The timeout configuration block can be used to configure various timeouts for the proxies. All fields are optional; Contour/Envoy defaults apply if a field is not specified.

| Field Name | Type| Default  | Description |
|------------|-----|----------|-------------|
| request-timeout | string | none* | This field specifies the default request timeout. Note that this is a timeout for the entire request, not an idle timeout. Must be a [valid Go duration string][4], or omitted or set to `infinity` to disable the timeout entirely. See [the Envoy documentation][12] for more information.<br /><br />_Note: A value of `0s` previously disabled this timeout entirely. This is no longer the case. Use `infinity` or omit this field to disable the timeout._  |
| connection-idle-timeout| string | `60s` | This field defines how long the proxy should wait while there are no active requests (for HTTP/1.1) or streams (for HTTP/2) before terminating an HTTP connection. Must be a [valid Go duration string][4], or `infinity` to disable the timeout entirely. See [the Envoy documentation][8] for more information. |
| stream-idle-timeout| string | `5m`* |This field defines how long the proxy should wait while there is no request activity (for HTTP/1.1) or stream activity (for HTTP/2) before terminating the HTTP request or stream. Must be a [valid Go duration string][4], or `infinity` to disable the timeout entirely. See [the Envoy documentation][9] for more information. |
| max-connection-duration | string | none* | This field defines the maximum period of time after an HTTP connection has been established from the client to the proxy before it is closed by the proxy, regardless of whether there has been activity or not. Must be a [valid Go duration string][4], or omitted or set to `infinity` for no max duration. See [the Envoy documentation][10] for more information. |
| delayed-close-timeout | string | `1s`* | *Note: this is an advanced setting that should not normally need to be tuned.* <br /><br /> This field defines how long envoy will wait, once connection close processing has been initiated, for the downstream peer to close the connection before Envoy closes the socket associated with the connection. Setting this timeout to 'infinity' will disable it.  See [the Envoy documentation][13] for more information. |
| connection-shutdown-grace-period | string | `5s`* | This field defines how long the proxy will wait between sending an initial GOAWAY frame and a second, final GOAWAY frame when terminating an HTTP/2 connection. During this grace period, the proxy will continue to respond to new streams. After the final GOAWAY frame has been sent, the proxy will refuse new streams. Must be a [valid Go duration string][4]. See [the Envoy documentation][11] for more information. |

_This is Envoy's default setting value and is not explicitly configured by Contour._

### Cluster Configuration

The cluster configuration block can be used to configure various parameters for Envoy clusters.

| Field Name | Type| Default  | Description |
|------------|-----|----------|-------------|
| dns-lookup-family | string | auto | This field specifies the dns-lookup-family to use for upstream requests to externalName type Kubernetes services from an HTTPProxy route. Values are: `auto`, `v4, `v6` |

### Network Configuration

The network configuration block can be used to configure various parameters network connections.

| Field Name | Type| Default  | Description |
|------------|-----|----------|-------------|

| admin-port | int | 9001 | Configures the Envoy Admin read-only listener on Envoy. Set to `0` to disable. |

### Listener Configuration

The listener configuration block can be used to configure various parameters for Envoy listener.

| Field Name | Type| Default  | Description |
|------------|-----|----------|-------------|
| connection-balancer | string | `""` | This field specifies the listener connection balancer. If the value is `exact`, the listener will use the exact connection balancer to balance connections between threads in a single Envoy process. See [the Envoy documentation][14] for more information. |

### Server Configuration

The server configuration block can be used to configure various settings for the `contour serve` command.

| Field Name | Type| Default  | Description |
|------------|-----|----------|-------------|
| xds-server-type | string | contour | This field specifies the xDS Server to use. Options are `contour` or `envoy`.  |

### Gateway Configuration

The gateway configuration block is used to configure which gateway-api Gateway Contour should configure:

| Field Name | Type| Default  | Description |
|------------|-----|----------|-------------|
| controllerName | string |  | Gateway Class controller name (i.e. projectcontour.io/projectcontour/contour).  |
| name (Deprecated) | string | contour | DEPRECATED: This field specifies the name of a Gateway.  |
| namespace (Deprecated) | string | projectcontour | DEPRECATED: This field specifies the namespace of a Gateway.  |

### Policy Configuration

The Policy configuration block can be used to configure default policy values
that are set if not overridden by the user.

The `request-headers` field is used to rewrite headers on a HTTP request, and
the `response-headers` field is used to rewrite headers on a HTTP response.

| Field Name | Type| Default  | Description |
|------------|-----|----------|-------------|
| request-headers | HeaderPolicy | none | The default request headers set or removed on all service routes if not overridden in the object |
| response-headers | HeaderPolicy | none | The default response headers set or removed on all service routes if not overridden in the object |

#### HeaderPolicy

The `set` field sets an HTTP header value, creating it if it doesn't already exist but not overwriting it if it does.
The `remove` field removes an HTTP header.

| Field Name | Type| Default  | Description |
|------------|-----|----------|-------------|
| set | map[string]string | none | Map of headers to set on all service routes if not overridden in the object |
| remove | []string | none | List of headers to remove on all service routes if not overridden in the object |

Note: the values of entries in the `set` and `remove` fields can be overridden in HTTPProxy objects but it it not possible to remove these entries.

### Rate Limit Service Configuration

The rate limit service configuration block is used to configure an optional global rate limit service:

| Field Name | Type| Default  | Description |
|------------|-----|----------|-------------|
| extensionService | string | <none> | This field identifies the extension service defining the rate limit service, formatted as <namespace>/<name>.  |

## Environment Variables

### CONTOUR_NAMESPACE

If present, the value of the `CONTOUR_NAMESPACE` environment variable is used as:

1. The value for the `contour bootstrap --namespace` flag unless otherwise specified.
1. The value for the `contour certgen --namespace` flag unless otherwise specified.
1. The value for the `contour serve --envoy-service-namespace` flag unless otherwise specified.
1. The value for the `leaderelection.configmap-namespace` config file setting for `contour serve` unless otherwise specified.

The `CONTOUR_NAMESPACE` environment variable is set via the [Downward API][6] in the Contour [example manifests][7].

## Bootstrap Config File

The bootstrap configuration file is generated by an initContainer in the Envoy daemonset which runs the `contour bootstrap` command to generate the file.
This configuration file configures the Envoy container to connect to Contour and receive configuration via xDS.

The next section outlines all the available flags that can be passed to the `contour bootstrap` command which are used to customize
the configuration file to match the environment in which Envoy is deployed.

### Flags

There are flags that can be passed to `contour bootstrap` that help configure how Envoy
connects to Contour:

| Flag | Default  | Description |
|------------|----------|-------------|
| <nobr>--resources-dir</nobr> | "" | Directory where resource files will be written.  |
| <nobr>--admin-address</nobr> | /admin/admin.sock | Path to Envoy admin unix domain socket.  |
| <nobr>--admin-port (Deprecated)</nobr> | 9001 | Deprecated: Port is now configured as a Contour flag.  |
| <nobr>--xds-address</nobr> | 127.0.0.1 | Address to connect to Contour xDS server on.  |
| <nobr>--xds-port</nobr> | 8001 | Port to connect to Contour xDS server on. |
| <nobr>--envoy-cafile</nobr> | "" | CA filename for Envoy secure xDS gRPC communication.  |
| <nobr>--envoy-cert-file</nobr> | "" | Client certificate filename for Envoy secure xDS gRPC communication.  |
| <nobr>--envoy-key-file</nobr> | "" | Client key filename for Envoy secure xDS gRPC communication.  |
| <nobr>--namespace</nobr> | projectcontour | Namespace the Envoy container will run, also configured via ENV variable "CONTOUR_NAMESPACE". Namespace is used as part of the metric names on static resources defined in the bootstrap configuration file.    |
| <nobr>--xds-resource-version</nobr> | v3 | Currently, the only valid xDS API resource version is `v3`.  |
| <nobr>--dns-lookup-family</nobr> | auto | Defines what DNS Resolution Policy to use for Envoy -> Contour cluster name lookup. Either v4, v6 or auto.  |
