Feature 6: HAProxy Import (Custom Parser)

Status: ✅ Completed Aufwand: 2 Wochen Release: v1.3.0-beta2 (Woche 8) Priorität: 🔴 Hoch Tests: 28/28 passing (100%) Parser Coverage: 88%

Übersicht

Import von HAProxy haproxy.cfg nach GAL. HAProxy verwendet ein eigenes Konfigurations-Format (ähnlich nginx.conf), daher ist ein Custom Parser erforderlich. HAProxy ist der de-facto Standard für Load Balancing und daher kritisch.

Herausforderungen

• Eigenes Format: haproxy.cfg hat section-based Syntax (global, defaults, frontend, backend)
• ACL-Syntax: HAProxy ACLs sind komplex und vielfältig
• Stick-Tables: Rate limiting via stick-tables (komplex)
• http-request/http-response: Vielfältige Direktiven
• Multi-line Syntax: Optionen können über mehrere Zeilen gehen

Implementierung

Custom Parser: HAProxyConfigParser

Feature Mapping Matrix

GAL Feature	HAProxy Config	Mapping
Service	backend <name>	Direct mapping
Upstream Targets	server name host:port	Direct mapping
Load Balancing	balance roundrobin/leastconn/source	Direct mapping
Active Health Checks	option httpchk, http-check	✅ Full support
Passive Health Checks	server ... fall N rise N	✅ Full support
Sticky Sessions	cookie NAME insert	✅ Direct mapping
Routes	use_backend + ACLs	Extracted from ACL path_beg
Rate Limiting	stick-table + http-request deny	⚠️ Complex stick-table syntax
Headers	http-request set-header, http-response set-header	Direct mapping
CORS	http-response set-header Access-Control-*	Extracted from headers
Basic Auth	http-request auth	⚠️ Limited support
