Support FastCGI proxying

[benaadams]

Support the FastCGI protocol

This would enable proxying for a wider ecosystem e.g. PHP, Python etc

I think this is pretty beyond our 1.0 radar to be honest. It may not even be a major goal right now. We're not really looking at process launching at all (let alone FastCGI) as a main goal of this. It's definitely expected that this is something you could extend YARP to do though, and might fit well into an ecosystem beyond the core of YARP.

Certainly worth keeping this around as a backlog item to collect more feedback on though.

Scenario question: How would you weigh this against being able to have fast loopback or domain socket support, so the proxy could be hosted on box, and route requests to the other services?

Is there a new road map for yarp for the next year? Would this fit inside?

This is currently in our backlog milestone, out of scope for our initial release.

The items we're actively working on are in the 1.0.0 milestones.

[samsp-msft]

We should talk about this

Triage: Outbound protocol, interesting for interop and likely perf.

Extremely interested in this functionality.
