Extend "add server" to support an IO handler function named
cli_io_handler_add_server(). A context object is also defined whose
usage will depend on IO handler capabilities.
IO handler is skipped when "add server" is run in default mode, i.e. on
a dynamic server creation. Thus, currently IO handler is unneeded.
However, it will become useful to support sub-commands for "add server".
Note that return value of "add server" parser has been changed on server
creation success. Previously, it was used incorrectly to report if
server was inserted or not. In fact, parser return value is used by CLI
generic code to detect if command processing has been completed, or
should continue to the IO handler. Now, "add server" always returns 1 to
signal that CLI processing is completed. This is necessary to preserve
CLI output emitted by parser, even now that IO handler is defined for
the command. Previously, output was emitted in every situations due to
IO handler not defined. See below code snippet from cli.c for a better
overview :
if (kw->parse && kw->parse(args, payload, appctx, kw->private) != 0) {
ret = 1;
goto fail;
}
/* kw->parse could set its own io_handler or io_release handler */
if (!appctx->cli_ctx.io_handler) {
ret = 1;
goto fail;
}
appctx->st0 = CLI_ST_CALLBACK;
ret = 1;
goto end;

HAProxy is a free, very fast and reliable reverse-proxy offering high availability, load balancing, and proxying for TCP and HTTP-based applications.
Installation
The INSTALL file describes how to build HAProxy. A list of packages is also available on the wiki.
Getting help
The discourse and the mailing-list are available for questions or configuration assistance. You can also use the slack or IRC channel. Please don't use the issue tracker for these.
The issue tracker is only for bug reports or feature requests.
Documentation
The HAProxy documentation has been split into a number of different files for ease of use. It is available in text format as well as HTML. The wiki is also meant to replace the old architecture guide.
