## 🚀 Feature 1: Nginx Provider (Open Source)

**Status:** ✅ **IMPLEMENTED** (Commits: 3fbd1e0, 5982ee5)
**Priority:** 🔴 High
**Effort:** 3 Wochen

- Complete nginx.conf generation
- Support for all load balancing algorithms (round_robin, least_conn, ip_hash, weighted)
- Rate limiting (limit_req_zone, limit_req)
- Basic authentication (auth_basic, htpasswd)
- Header manipulation (request/response)
- CORS policies (add_header directives)
- Passive health checks (max_fails, fail_timeout)
- Template variable conversion ({{uuid}} → $request_id, {{now}} → $time_iso8601)

**Tests:** `tests/test_nginx.py` (25 tests, all passing)
- Provider basics, validation warnings
- Load balancing (all 4 algorithms)
- Passive health checks
- Rate limiting (IP-based, header-based)
- Authentication (basic, API key, JWT)
- Header manipulation
- CORS policies
- Multiple services/routes
- All features combined

**Documentation:** `docs/guides/NGINX.md` (1000+ lines, German)
- Übersicht & Feature-Matrix
- Installation & Setup
- Feature-by-Feature Anleitungen
- Provider-Vergleich
- Nginx-spezifische Details
- OpenResty Integration (JWT, API Key)
- Best Practices & Troubleshooting

**Examples:** `examples/nginx-example.yaml` (15 production-ready scenarios)

- Passive Health Checks
- Rate Limiting (IP-based, Header-based)
- Basic Authentication
- Request/Response Headers
- CORS Configuration
- Combined Features (Production API)

- Extension map: nginx → .conf
- Verified config generation works

**Limitations:**
- ❌ No Active Health Checks (Nginx Plus only)
- ⚠️ JWT Auth requires OpenResty/Lua
- ⚠️ Circuit Breaker requires Lua

### Motivation

- **Nginx ist der #1 Web Server** weltweit (>30% Marktanteil)
- Weit verbreitet als Reverse Proxy und Load Balancer
- Leichtgewichtig und performant
- Große Community und umfangreiche Dokumentation
- Gute Basis für später: Nginx Plus Support (v1.3.0)

### Nginx Capabilities (Open Source)

**Unterstützte Features:**
- ✅ Reverse Proxy
- ✅ Load Balancing (Round Robin, Least Connections, IP Hash, Weighted)
- ✅ HTTP/HTTPS/HTTP2
- ✅ SSL/TLS Termination
- ✅ Rate Limiting (ngx_http_limit_req_module)
- ✅ Basic Authentication (ngx_http_auth_basic_module)
- ✅ Header Manipulation (add_header, proxy_set_header)

- ✅ Health Checks (passive via proxy_next_upstream)
- ✅ Upstream Targets mit Gewichtung
- ⚠️ JWT Auth (nur mit OpenResty/Lua)
- ⚠️ Circuit Breaker (limitiert, via Lua)

**Einschränkungen:**
- ❌ Keine nativen Active Health Checks (nur Nginx Plus)
- ❌ Keine native JWT Validation (benötigt Lua/OpenResty)
- ❌ Keine Dynamic Configuration (ohne Plus)
- ❌ Limitierte Observability (ohne Plus)

### Implementation Tasks

#### 1. Provider Klasse (`gal/providers/nginx.py`)

```python
class NginxProvider(Provider):
    """Nginx Open Source Gateway Provider.

    Generates nginx.conf configuration for Nginx reverse proxy.
    Supports: routing, load balancing, rate limiting, basic auth,
    headers, CORS, passive health checks.

    Limitations:
    - No active health checks (Nginx Plus only)
    - JWT auth requires OpenResty/Lua
    - Circuit breaker requires Lua
    """

    def generate(self, config: GatewayConfig) -> str:
        """Generate nginx.conf configuration."""
        pass

    def _generate_upstream(self, service: Service) -> str:
        """Generate upstream block with load balancing."""
        pass

    def _generate_server(self, service: Service) -> str:
        """Generate server block for service."""
        pass

    def _generate_location(self, route: Route, service: Service) -> str:
        """Generate location block for route."""
        pass

    def _generate_rate_limit(self, route: Route) -> str:
        """Generate limit_req_zone and limit_req directives."""
        pass

    def _generate_headers(self, headers: HeaderManipulation) -> str:
        """Generate proxy_set_header and add_header directives."""
        pass

    def _generate_cors(self, cors: CORSPolicy) -> str:
        """Generate CORS headers via add_header."""
        pass
```

#### 2. Nginx Configuration Schema

**Upstream Block (Load Balancing):**
```nginx
upstream backend_service {
    # Load Balancing Algorithm
    least_conn;  # oder: ip_hash, hash $request_uri consistent

    # Backend Servers mit Gewichtung
    server api-1.internal:8080 weight=2 max_fails=3 fail_timeout=30s;
    server api-2.internal:8080 weight=1 max_fails=3 fail_timeout=30s;

    # Passive Health Check
    # max_fails: Nach wie vielen Fehlern wird Server als down markiert
    # fail_timeout: Wie lange wird Server als down betrachtet
}
```

**Server Block:**
```nginx
server {
    listen 80;
    server_name api.example.com;

    # Rate Limiting Zone (global definition)
    limit_req_zone $binary_remote_addr zone=api_limit:10m rate=100r/s;

    location /api/v1 {
        # Rate Limiting
        limit_req zone=api_limit burst=200 nodelay;
        limit_req_status 429;

        # Basic Auth
        auth_basic "Protected Area";
        auth_basic_user_file /etc/nginx/.htpasswd;

        # Request Headers
        proxy_set_header X-Request-ID $request_id;
        proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
        proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;

        # CORS
        add_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin "https://app.example.com" always;
        add_header Access-Control-Allow-Methods "GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, OPTIONS" always;
        add_header Access-Control-Allow-Headers "Content-Type, Authorization" always;
        add_header Access-Control-Max-Age 86400 always;

        # OPTIONS Preflight
        if ($request_method = 'OPTIONS') {
            return 204;
        }

        # Response Headers
        add_header X-Frame-Options "DENY" always;
        add_header X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff" always;

        # Proxy to Upstream
        proxy_pass http://backend_service;
        proxy_http_version 1.1;
        proxy_set_header Connection "";

        # Timeouts
        proxy_connect_timeout 5s;
        proxy_send_timeout 60s;
        proxy_read_timeout 60s;
    }
}
```

**Feature Matrix:**
| Feature | Envoy | Kong | APISIX | Traefik | Nginx | HAProxy |
|---------|-------|------|--------|---------|-------|---------|
| JSON Logs | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ⚠️ |
| Custom Fields | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ⚠️ |
| Log Sampling | ✅ | ⚠️ | ⚠️ | ⚠️ | ⚠️ | ⚠️ |
| Prometheus | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ⚠️ | ⚠️ |
| OpenTelemetry | ✅ | ⚠️ | ⚠️ | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ |

**Coverage:** Test coverage increased from 13% to 32% for logging & observability

**Config Example:**
```yaml
global:
  logging:
    enabled: true
    format: json
    level: info
    access_log_path: /var/log/gateway/access.log
    sample_rate: 0.5  # 50% sampling for high traffic
    include_headers:
      - X-Request-ID
      - X-Correlation-ID
    exclude_paths:
      - /health
      - /metrics
    custom_fields:
      environment: production
      cluster: eu-west-1

  metrics:
    enabled: true
    exporter: both
    prometheus_port: 9090
