# Consul API Gateway 0.4.0
|
|
|
|
## Release Highlights
|
|
|
|
- **Support for Kubernetes Gateway API Version 0.5.0 and v1beta1 APIs:**
|
|
The `v0.5.0` release of the Kubernetes Gateway API is significant because it
|
|
marks the growth in maturity to a beta API version (v1beta1) release for some
|
|
of the key APIs:
|
|
- GatewayClass
|
|
- Gateway
|
|
- HTTPRoute
|
|
|
|
The other APIs (e.g. TCPRoute) are still at the `v1alpha2` stage.
|
|
|
|
Reaching `v1beta1` status has several benefits for users, including greater
|
|
stability and backward compatibility requirements. Existing fields and allowed
|
|
options can not be removed or renamed except in a new, major version of the
|
|
API. Once an API reaches `v1beta1` status, future versions must comply with
|
|
several backward compatibility requirements.
|
|
|
|
- **URL Path Prefix Rewrite** This release introduces support for rewriting a
|
|
URL's path prefix when routing HTTP traffic. To use this functionality, add a
|
|
`URLRewrite` filter to an `HTTPRoute` configuration. This enables the gateway
|
|
to rewrite the URL path in a client's HTTP request before sending the request
|
|
to a service. For example, you could configure the gateway to change the path
|
|
from `//store/checkout` to `//cart/checkout`. Refer to the [usage
|
|
documentation](/consul/docs/connect/gateways/api-gateway/define-routes/reroute-http-requests) for additional information.
|
|
|
|
## What has Changed
|
|
|
|
- **Reference Policy Renamed to Reference Grant** In v0.5.0 of the Kubernetes
|
|
Gateway API, `ReferencePolicy` has been renamed to `ReferenceGrant`. This
|
|
release supports both but `ReferencePolicy` is deprecated and will be removed
|
|
in a future version of the standard.
|
|
|
|
After upgrading to this version of Consul API Gateway, you should rename all
|
|
existing `ReferencePolicy` to `ReferenceGrant`. Refer to the [Upgrades](/consul/docs/connect/gateways/api-gateway/upgrades-k8s)
|
|
instructions for additional details.
