Check header existence

[moritz....@qaware.de]

Hi,

is Kong able to check the existence of a header and deny the request if the header isn't present?

Thanks!

That would require a (very simple) custom plugin.

PS. smells like security by obscurity, which, as you probably know, is a bad idea.

Thank you, i think i'll write a plugin.

To your security note: The header is evaluated in the upstream system, but i don't want to hit that until the header exists.

You might want to check the `kong-vagrant` repo, the readme has instructions for plugin development

Hello

Are you able to write that plugin?

I am trying to achieve more or less same functionality.
