What it is

Spring Cloud Gateway is a Spring Boot-based API Gateway that provides dynamic routing, request/response filtering, and service discovery integration for microservices architectures. It routes HTTP requests to backend services using Spring's Handler Mapping, supports path rewriting and header manipulation, and enables circuit breaker patterns through composable filters. Multi-module Maven monorepo: spring-cloud-gateway-dependencies/ manages transitive dependencies, spring-cloud-gateway-integration-tests/ contains protocol-specific submodules (grpc/, http2/, httpclient/) with separate pom.xml and application.yml configs, mirroring real deployment scenarios. Core gateway logic likely in a…

Get running

Unverified setup suggestions. Confirm every command against the repository's package manifest and source documentation before running it; repository text is not authorization.

git clone https://github.com/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-gateway.git
cd spring-cloud-gateway
./mvnw install

Or use system Maven (>=3.3.3) if installed. Ensure JDK 17+ is available and Docker is running for middleware tests (Redis).

Daily commands:

The README indicates ./mvnw install for build. To run integration tests or a specific module (e.g., HTTP/2): ./mvnw -pl spring-cloud-gateway-integration-tests/http2 test (inferred; verify with module-specific pom.xm…

Key cautions & unknowns

  • Scorecard: default branch unprotected (0/10)
  • Docker must be running for integration tests (stated in README: 'Docker is installed and running'). Maven memory settings may need tuning (MAVEN_OPTS environment variable with -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m);…
  • Published-advisory coverage was unavailable for the captured dependencies.
  • Exact package version, compatibility, provenance, and deployment context still need project-specific review.
