# mTLS Bridge Service
|
|
|
|
Internal HTTP-to-mTLS bridge for services that cannot present client certificates directly (for example, Grafana webhooks).
|
|
|
|
## How it works
|
|
|
|
1. Accepts plain HTTP requests inside the Docker network.
|
|
2. Forwards requests to an upstream base URL.
|
|
3. Preserves the incoming request path/method/body/query string.
|
|
4. Presents a client certificate/key pair for mTLS authentication.
|
|
|
|
## Environment variables
|
|
|
|
- `TARGET_URL` (required): upstream base URL (for example `http://node-red:1880`).
|
|
- `CLIENT_CERT` (default `/certs/client.crt`): client certificate path.
|
|
- `CLIENT_KEY` (default `/certs/client.key`): client private key path.
|
|
- `UPSTREAM_CA_CERT` (optional, alias: `CA_CERT`): CA bundle path to verify upstream TLS. Use `false`/`0`/`no` to disable verification.
|
|
- `TIMEOUT` (default `5`): request timeout in seconds.
|
|
- `LOG_LEVEL` (default `INFO`): Python logging level.
|
|
- `HEALTH_ENDPOINT` (default `/_mtls_bridge/health`): local container health endpoint path.
|
|
- `ALLOWED_PATHS_FILE` (optional): file path containing one allowed endpoint path per line (for example `/health`). Blank lines and `#` comments are ignored. If unset, all paths are allowed.
|
|
- `MTLS_BRIDGE_BASIC_AUTH_USERS` (required for Traefik auth): value for `traefik.http.middlewares.*.basicauth.users` (e.g. `user:$$apr1$$...`).
|
|
- `MTLS_BRIDGE_CORS_ALLOW_ORIGIN` (default `https://grafana.lan.ddnsgeek.com`): origin allowed for browser-based panel actions.
|
|
|
|
## Endpoints
|
|
|
|
- `GET /_mtls_bridge/health` returns `200 OK` for container health checks.
|
|
- `/*` proxies requests to `${TARGET_URL}/*` with method/body/headers/query string preserved (subject to optional allow-list checks).
|
|
|
|
Examples with `TARGET_URL=http://node-red:1880`:
|
|
|
|
- `https://mtls-bridge.../docker-update-lockouts/clear` -> `http://node-red:1880/docker-update-lockouts/clear`
|
|
- `https://mtls-bridge.../health` -> `http://node-red:1880/health`
|
|
- `https://mtls-bridge.../uptime-kuma` -> `http://node-red:1880/uptime-kuma`
|
|
|
|
## Compose integration
|
|
|
|
This repository includes `monitoring/mtls-bridge/docker-compose.yml`:
|
|
|
|
- No public port exposure.
|
|
- Read-only cert mount (`${PROJECT_ROOT}/core/traefik/certs:/certs:ro`).
|
|
- Joined to internal monitoring/traefik networks.
|
|
|
|
## Example test
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
curl http://mtls-bridge:8080/_mtls_bridge/health
|
|
curl -X POST http://mtls-bridge:8080/docker-update-lockouts/clear
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Allow-list file example
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
# one path per line
|
|
/docker-update-lockouts/clear
|
|
/health
|
|
/uptime-kuma
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
When `ALLOWED_PATHS_FILE` is set, any path not listed returns `403 Endpoint not allowed`.
