A projection from an input message to the GRPC or REST header.
A projection from an input message to the GRPC or REST header.
- Value Params
- field
A request field to extract the header key-value pair from.
- pathTemplate
A pattern matching the key-value field. Optional. If not specified, the whole field specified in the
field
field will be taken as value, and its name used as key. If specified, it MUST contain exactly one named segment (along with any number of unnamed segments) The pattern will be matched over the field specified in thefield
field, then if the match is successful:- the name of the single named segment will be used as a header name,
- the match value of the segment will be used as a header value; if the match is NOT successful, nothing will be sent. Example: -- This is a field in the request message | that the header value will be extracted from. | | -- This is the key name in the | | routing header. V | field: "table_name" v path_template: "projects/*/{table_location=instances/*}/tables/*" ^ ^ | | In the {} brackets is the pattern that -- | specifies what to extract from the | field as a value to be sent. | | The string in the field must match the whole pattern -- before brackets, inside brackets, after brackets. When looking at this specific example, we can see that:
- A key-value pair with the key
table_location
and the value matchinginstances/*
should be added to the x-goog-request-params routing header. - The value is extracted from the request message's
table_name
field if it matches the full pattern specified:projects/*/instances/*/tables/*
. NB: If thepath_template
field is not provided, the key name is equal to the field name, and the whole field should be sent as a value. This makes the pattern for the field and the value functionally equivalent to**
, and the configuration { field: "table_name" } is a functionally equivalent shorthand to: { field: "table_name" path_template: "{table_name=**}" } See Example 1 for more details.

Specifies the routing information that should be sent along with the request in the form of routing header. NOTE: All service configuration rules follow the "last one wins" order.
Specifies the routing information that should be sent along with the request in the form of routing header. NOTE: All service configuration rules follow the "last one wins" order.
The examples below will apply to an RPC which has the following request type:
Message Definition:
message Request {
// The name of the Table
// Values can be of the following formats:
// - projects/<project>/tables/<table>
// - projects/<project>/instances/<instance>/tables/<table>
// - region/<region>/zones/<zone>/tables/<table>
string table_name = 1;
// This value specifies routing for replication.
// It can be in the following formats:
// - `profiles/<profile_id>`
// - a legacy `profile_id` that can be any string
string app_profile_id = 2;
}
Example message:
{ table_name: projects/proj_foo/instances/instance_bar/table/table_baz, app_profile_id: profiles/prof_qux }
The routing header consists of one or multiple key-value pairs. Every key
and value must be percent-encoded, and joined together in the format of
key1=value1&key2=value2
.
In the examples below I am skipping the percent-encoding for readablity.
Example 1
Extracting a field from the request to put into the routing header unchanged, with the key equal to the field name.
annotation:
option (google.api.routing) = {
// Take the app_profile_id
.
routing_parameters {
field: "app_profile_id"
}
};
result:
x-goog-request-params: app_profile_id=profiles/prof_qux
Example 2
Extracting a field from the request to put into the routing header unchanged, with the key different from the field name.
annotation:
option (google.api.routing) = {
// Take the app_profile_id
, but name it routing_id
in the header.
routing_parameters {
field: "app_profile_id"
path_template: "{routing_id=**}"
}
};
result:
x-goog-request-params: routing_id=profiles/prof_qux
Example 3
Extracting a field from the request to put into the routing header, while matching a path template syntax on the field's value.
NB: it is more useful to send nothing than to send garbage for the purpose of dynamic routing, since garbage pollutes cache. Thus the matching.
Sub-example 3a
The field matches the template.
annotation:
option (google.api.routing) = {
// Take the table_name
, if it's well-formed (with project-based
// syntax).
routing_parameters {
field: "table_name"
path_template: "{table_name=projects/*/instances/*/**}"
}
};
result:
x-goog-request-params: table_name=projects/proj_foo/instances/instance_bar/table/table_baz
Sub-example 3b
The field does not match the template.
annotation:
option (google.api.routing) = {
// Take the table_name
, if it's well-formed (with region-based
// syntax).
routing_parameters {
field: "table_name"
path_template: "{table_name=regions/*/zones/*/**}"
}
};
result:
<no routing header will be sent>
Sub-example 3c
Multiple alternative conflictingly named path templates are specified. The one that matches is used to construct the header.
annotation:
option (google.api.routing) = {
// Take the table_name
, if it's well-formed, whether
// using the region- or projects-based syntax.
routing_parameters {
field: "table_name"
path_template: "{table_name=regions/*/zones/*/**}"
}
routing_parameters {
field: "table_name"
path_template: "{table_name=projects/*/instances/*/**}"
}
};
result:
x-goog-request-params: table_name=projects/proj_foo/instances/instance_bar/table/table_baz
Example 4
Extracting a single routing header key-value pair by matching a template syntax on (a part of) a single request field.
annotation:
option (google.api.routing) = {
// Take just the project id from the table_name
field.
routing_parameters {
field: "table_name"
path_template: "{routing_id=projects/*}/**"
}
};
result:
x-goog-request-params: routing_id=projects/proj_foo
Example 5
Extracting a single routing header key-value pair by matching several conflictingly named path templates on (parts of) a single request field. The last template to match "wins" the conflict.
annotation:
option (google.api.routing) = {
// If the table_name
does not have instances information,
// take just the project id for routing.
// Otherwise take project + instance.
routing_parameters {
field: "table_name"
path_template: "{routing_id=projects/*}/**"
}
routing_parameters {
field: "table_name"
path_template: "{routing_id=projects/*/instances/*}/**"
}
};
result:
x-goog-request-params: routing_id=projects/proj_foo/instances/instance_bar
Example 6
Extracting multiple routing header key-value pairs by matching several non-conflicting path templates on (parts of) a single request field.
Sub-example 6a
Make the templates strict, so that if the table_name
does not
have an instance information, nothing is sent.
annotation:
option (google.api.routing) = { // The routing code needs two keys instead of one composite // but works only for the tables with the "project-instance" name // syntax.
routing_parameters {
field: "table_name"
path_template: "{project_id=projects/*}/instances/*/**"
}
routing_parameters {
field: "table_name"
path_template: "projects/*/{instance_id=instances/*}/**"
}
};
result:
x-goog-request-params: project_id=projects/proj_foo&instance_id=instances/instance_bar
Sub-example 6b
Make the templates loose, so that if the table_name
does not
have an instance information, just the project id part is sent.
annotation:
option (google.api.routing) = {
// The routing code wants two keys instead of one composite
// but will work with just the project_id
for tables without
// an instance in the table_name
.
routing_parameters {
field: "table_name"
path_template: "{project_id=projects/*}/**"
}
routing_parameters {
field: "table_name"
path_template: "projects/*/{instance_id=instances/*}/**"
}
};
result (is the same as 6a for our example message because it has the instance information):
x-goog-request-params: project_id=projects/proj_foo&instance_id=instances/instance_bar
Example 7
Extracting multiple routing header key-value pairs by matching several path templates on multiple request fields.
NB: note that here there is no way to specify sending nothing if one of the
fields does not match its template. E.g. if the table_name
is in the wrong
format, the project_id
will not be sent, but the routing_id
will be.
The backend routing code has to be aware of that and be prepared to not
receive a full complement of keys if it expects multiple.
annotation:
option (google.api.routing) = {
// The routing needs both project_id
and routing_id
// (from the app_profile_id
field) for routing.
routing_parameters {
field: "table_name"
path_template: "{project_id=projects/*}/**"
}
routing_parameters {
field: "app_profile_id"
path_template: "{routing_id=**}"
}
};
result:
x-goog-request-params: project_id=projects/proj_foo&routing_id=profiles/prof_qux
Example 8
Extracting a single routing header key-value pair by matching several conflictingly named path templates on several request fields. The last template to match "wins" the conflict.
annotation:
option (google.api.routing) = {
// The routing_id
can be a project id or a region id depending on
// the table name format, but only if the app_profile_id
is not set.
// If app_profile_id
is set it should be used instead.
routing_parameters {
field: "table_name"
path_template: "{routing_id=projects/*}/**"
}
routing_parameters {
field: "table_name"
path_template: "{routing_id=regions/*}/**"
}
routing_parameters {
field: "app_profile_id"
path_template: "{routing_id=**}"
}
};
result:
x-goog-request-params: routing_id=profiles/prof_qux
Example 9
Bringing it all together.
annotation:
option (google.api.routing) = {
// For routing both table_location
and a routing_id
are needed.
//
// table_location can be either an instance id or a region+zone id.
//
// For routing_id
, take the value of app_profile_id
// - If it's in the format profiles/<profile_id>
, send
// just the <profile_id>
part.
// - If it's any other literal, send it as is.
// If the app_profile_id
is empty, and the table_name
starts with
// the project_id, send that instead.
routing_parameters {
field: "table_name"
path_template: "projects/*/{table_location=instances/*}/tables/*"
}
routing_parameters {
field: "table_name"
path_template: "{table_location=regions/*/zones/*}/tables/*"
}
routing_parameters {
field: "table_name"
path_template: "{routing_id=projects/*}/**"
}
routing_parameters {
field: "app_profile_id"
path_template: "{routing_id=**}"
}
routing_parameters {
field: "app_profile_id"
path_template: "profiles/{routing_id=*}"
}
};
result:
x-goog-request-params: table_location=instances/instance_bar&routing_id=prof_qux
- Value Params
- routingParameters
A collection of Routing Parameter specifications. NOTE: If multiple Routing Parameters describe the same key (via the
path_template
field or via thefield
field whenpath_template
is not provided), "last one wins" rule determines which Parameter gets used. See the examples for more details.
