HAProxy

Build scripts for HAProxy with QUIC

Get started

You will need the following dependencies (Debian/Ubuntu packages given as example):

• Development tools (build-essential)
• curl and ssl support for it (curl and ca-certificates)
• CMake (cmake)
• Readline library headers (libreadline-dev)
• Libsystemd headers (libsystemd-dev)
• GNU TAR (tar)

Then just run make and the build should pass.

First, deps/quictls/quictls-dist.tar.gz should be expanded so it matches the host's /opt/quictls when expanding, as it is where HAProxy will look for OpenSSL.

And finally haproxy/haproxy-dist.tar.gz can be expanded anywhere.

Should I use this repo?

This is an:

• unofficial build of HAProxy
• which enables an experimental feature of HAProxy
• which relies on an unofficial build of OpenSSL
• which is based on an unofficial patch of OpenSSL

Generally speaking, you shouldn't.

That said, please PR improvements back if you do. We'll be using it ourselves too.

What's in there

First, we want to statically build things where possible, which is done for:

• LUA
• PCRE2
• QuicTLS

Then we want HAProxy to not use the system's OpenSSL but rather our QuicTLS build, which it will look for at the /opt/quictls prefix.
