HTTPS upstream added as HTTP

[itatabitovski]

Upstream shown as http:// in fabio admin.

    "ServiceTags": [
      "ci-fabio-/users",
      "proto=https",
      "tlsskipverify=true",
    ],

You mean in the UI?

[itatabitovski]

Yes, in the UI I see that the upstream is http://

[magiconair]

Yeah, I missed that in the PR. Also the demo server needs some work and I'll update the docs on the wiki.

[itatabitovski]

Having the service registered with the tags above does not seem to add it as HTTPS, it is not just a UI issue.

Trying to access a service resulted in:

http: proxy error: malformed HTTP response "\x15\x03\x01\x00\x02\x02"

Manually registering the service as described in #260 does not give this error.

These are not individual tags but options for the route. A service can publish more than one route and they can all have different options.

Try ci-fabio-/users proto=https tlsskipverify=true as one tag. That should produce the following route:

route add srv /users https://1.2.3.4:5678 opts "tlsskipverify=true proto=https"

I'll make sure that this is clear in the documentation.

[itatabitovski]

Manually adding the route with one combined tag "tlsskipverify=true proto=https" works as expected!

How do I register this tag in consul?

[magiconair]

You register the tag as one value, e.g.

"ServiceTags": [
  "ci-fabio-/users proto=https tlsskipverify=true",
],

Everything works fine now. Thank you. Upstream is properly registered and displayed in the UI.
