Configuration Query

Read-only access to the active configuration state, including route providers and system statistics.

Overview

The internal/config/query package offers read-only access to the active configuration state. It provides functions to dump route providers, list providers, search for routes, and retrieve system statistics. This package is primarily used by the API layer to expose configuration information.

Primary consumers

• internal/api/v1 - REST API endpoints for configuration queries
• internal/homepage - Dashboard statistics display
• Operators - CLI tools and debugging interfaces

Non-goals

• Configuration modification (see internal/config)
• Provider lifecycle management
• Dynamic state updates

Stability

Stable internal package. Functions are simple read-only accessors.

Public API

Exported types

type RouteProviderListResponse struct {
    ShortName string `json:"short_name"`
    FullName  string `json:"full_name"`
}

type Statistics struct {
    Total          uint16                         `json:"total"`
    ReverseProxies types.RouteStats               `json:"reverse_proxies"`
    Streams        types.RouteStats               `json:"streams"`
    Providers      map[string]types.ProviderStats `json:"providers"`
}

Exported functions

func DumpRouteProviders() map[string]types.RouteProvider

Returns all route providers as a map keyed by their short name. Thread-safe access via config.ActiveState.Load().

func RouteProviderList() []RouteProviderListResponse

Searches for a route by alias across all providers. Returns nil if not found.

func GetStatistics() Statistics

Aggregates statistics from all route providers, including total routes, reverse proxies, streams, and per-provider stats.

Architecture

Core components

config/query/
├── query.go    # Provider and route queries
└── stats.go    # Statistics aggregation

Data flow

Thread safety model

All functions use config.ActiveState.Load() for thread-safe read access:

func DumpRouteProviders() map[string]types.RouteProvider {
    state := config.ActiveState.Load()
    entries := make(map[string]types.RouteProvider, state.NumProviders())
    for _, p := range state.IterProviders() {
        entries[p.ShortName()] = p
    }
    return entries
}

Configuration Surface

No configuration. This package only reads from the active state.

Dependency and Integration Map

Internal dependencies

• internal/config/types - ActiveState atomic pointer and State interface
• internal/types - Route provider and route types

Integration points

// API endpoint uses query functions
func ListProviders(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    providers := statequery.RouteProviderList()
    json.NewEncoder(w).Encode(providers)
}

Observability

Logs

No logging in the query package itself.

Metrics

No metrics are currently exposed.

Security Considerations

• Read-only access prevents state corruption
• No sensitive data is exposed beyond what the configuration already contains
• Caller should handle nil state gracefully

Failure Modes and Recovery

Failure	Behavior	Recovery
No active state	Functions return empty/nil	Initialize config first
Provider returns nil	Skipped in iteration	Provider should not return nil
Route not found	Returns nil	Expected behavior

Performance Characteristics

• O(n) where n is number of providers for provider queries
• O(n * m) where m is routes per provider for route search
• O(n) for statistics aggregation
• No locking required (uses atomic load)

Usage Examples

Listing all providers

providers := statequery.RouteProviderList()
for _, p := range providers {
    fmt.Printf("Short: %s, Full: %s\n", p.ShortName, p.FullName)
}

Getting all providers as a map

providers := statequery.DumpRouteProviders()
for shortName, provider := range providers {
    fmt.Printf("%s: %s\n", shortName, provider.String())
}

Getting system statistics

stats := statequery.GetStatistics()
fmt.Printf("Total routes: %d\n", stats.Total)
fmt.Printf("Reverse proxies: %d\n", stats.ReverseProxies.Total)
for name, providerStats := range stats.Providers {
    fmt.Printf("Provider %s: %d routes\n", name, providerStats.RPs.Total)
}

Integration with API

func handleGetProviders(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    providers := statequery.RouteProviderList()
    w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "application/json")
    json.NewEncoder(w).Encode(providers)
}

func handleGetStats(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
    stats := statequery.GetStatistics()
    w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "application/json")
    json.NewEncoder(w).Encode(stats)
}
