Flecto Manager

Dynamic HTTP redirect and traffic routing management for modern infrastructure.

---

What is Flecto Manager?

Flecto Manager is a centralized management platform for HTTP redirections and static pages. It provides a web interface to configure routing rules that are then consumed by agents deployed in your infrastructure.

Features

Redirections

• Manage HTTP redirects (301, 302, 307, 308)
• Support for path patterns and query string handling
• Bulk import/export via CSV
• Draft mode for reviewing changes before publishing

Pages

• Serve static text content (text/plain) for files like robots.txt
• Serve XML content (text/xml) for files like sitemap.xml
• Version control with draft/publish workflow

Architecture

┌─────────────────┐         ┌─────────────────┐
│  Flecto Manager │◄────────│   Web UI        │
│     (API)       │         │  (React)        │
└────────┬────────┘         └─────────────────┘
         │
         │ HTTP API (pull config)
         │
         ▼
┌─────────────────┐         ┌─────────────────┐
│     Agent       │────────►│  Reverse Proxy  │
│   (Traefik,     │         │  (serves users) │
│    custom...)   │         │                 │
└─────────────────┘         └─────────────────┘

How it works:

1. Configure redirects and pages in Flecto Manager (via Web UI or GraphQL API)
2. Deploy an agent in your infrastructure (e.g., Traefik plugin, custom agent)
3. The agent periodically fetches the configuration from Flecto Manager
4. The agent applies redirects and serves pages to end users

Note: Flecto Manager is the control plane only. You need an agent to actually process redirects and serve pages to users.

Quick Start

Using Docker

docker pull ghcr.io/flectolab/flecto-manager:latest

docker run -p 8080:8080 -e FLECTO_MANAGER_CFG='
http:
  listen: "0.0.0.0:8080"
db:
  type: mysql
  config:
    dsn: "user:password@tcp(localhost:3306)/flecto?parseTime=true"
auth:
  jwt:
    secret: "your-secret-key-at-least-32-chars!"
' ghcr.io/flectolab/flecto-manager:latest

From Source

# Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/flectolab/flecto-manager.git
cd flecto-manager

# Build frontend
cd webui
npm ci
npm run codegen
npm run build
cd ..

# Build and run
go mod download
go tool gqlgen generate
./bin/mock.sh
go build -o flecto-manager .
./flecto-manager start -c config.yaml

---

Development

Frontend (webui)

cd webui

# Install dependencies
npm ci

# Generate GraphQL types
npm run codegen

# Development server (hot reload)
npm run dev

# Production build
npm run build

# Lint
npm run lint

The frontend runs on http://localhost:5173 by default.

Backend (Go)

# Download dependencies
go mod download

# Generate GraphQL resolvers
go tool gqlgen generate

# Generate mocks for testing
./bin/mock.sh

# Run tests
go test -v ./...

# Build
go build -v .

# Run
./flecto-manager start -c config.yaml

Common Package

The common/ package is a standalone Go module that can be imported in other projects.

cd common

# Download dependencies
go mod download

# Run tests
go test -v -race ./...

Import in other projects:

go get github.com/flectolab/flecto-manager/common@latest

Configuration

Create a config.yaml file:

http:
  listen: "127.0.0.1:8080"

db:
  type: mysql
  config:
    dsn: "user:password@tcp(localhost:3306)/flecto?parseTime=true"

auth:
  jwt:
    secret: "your-secret-key-at-least-32-characters"
    issuer: "flecto-manager"
    access_token_ttl: 15m
    refresh_token_ttl: 24h
    header_name: "Authorization"

page:
  size_limit: 1048576        # 1MB
  total_size_limit: 104857600 # 100MB

agent:
  offline_threshold: 6h

Environment Variables

When using Docker, you can inject the config via environment variable:

Variable	Description
FLECTO_MANAGER_CFG	Full YAML configuration content
FLECTO_MANAGER_CONFIG_PATH	Config file path (default: /etc/flecto/manager.yaml)
LOG_LEVEL	Log level: DEBUG, INFO, WARN, ERROR (default: INFO)

API

• GraphQL Playground: http://localhost:8080/graphql
• REST API: http://localhost:8080/api/...

Default credentials: admin / admin
