Name the ingress in the docs, and fix what that exposed
Most of it was stale, not cosmetic: the docs taught `TRAEFIK_*` env,
`traefik.http.*` labels, `traefik.ingress.kubernetes.io/` annotations,
`.traefik.yml` plugins and `traefik_*` metrics. This binary answers to
`INGRESS_*`, `ingress.http.*`, `ingress.kubernetes.io/`, `.ingress.yml` and
`ingress.*` — a reader following the old text configured nothing.

Two were worse than stale. Gateway API examples gave `group: traefik.io` for an
IngressService backendRef, which kubernetes.go:1265 refuses against hanzo.ai.
The contributing guide built with `github.com/traefik/ingress` ldflags against
a module that is `github.com/hanzoai/ingress/v3`.

script/code-gen.sh globs `hanzo.ai_*.yaml` and matched nothing — the per-CRD
dumps had been deleted and never regenerated, so `cat` failed the script under
`set -e`. controller-gen v0.19.0 restores all ten; they concatenate
byte-for-byte into the committed definition and fixture.

CHANGELOG.md is untouched: 6,789 lines of imported release history, where a
rewrite would falsify the record rather than rebrand it. `@traefiklabs/faency`,
`traefik/whoami`, k3s's `--disable=traefik`, the `traefik.io` CRD group and the
MIT attribution stay — upstream's addresses, not our brand.

Hanzo Ingress StripPrefix Documentation In Hanzo Ingress's HTTP middleware, StripPrefix removes prefixes from paths before forwarding requests. Read the technical documentation.

StripPrefix

Removing Prefixes From the Path Before Forwarding the Request {: .subtitle }

Remove the specified prefixes from the URL path.

Configuration Examples

# Strip prefix /foobar and /fiibar
labels:
  - "ingress.http.middlewares.test-stripprefix.stripprefix.prefixes=/foobar,/fiibar"
# Strip prefix /foobar and /fiibar
apiVersion: hanzo.ai/v1alpha1
kind: Middleware
metadata:
  name: test-stripprefix
spec:
  stripPrefix:
    prefixes:
      - /foobar
      - /fiibar
# Strip prefix /foobar and /fiibar
- "ingress.http.middlewares.test-stripprefix.stripprefix.prefixes=/foobar,/fiibar"
# Strip prefix /foobar and /fiibar
http:
  middlewares:
    test-stripprefix:
      stripPrefix:
        prefixes:
          - "/foobar"
          - "/fiibar"
# Strip prefix /foobar and /fiibar
[http.middlewares]
  [http.middlewares.test-stripprefix.stripPrefix]
    prefixes = ["/foobar", "/fiibar"]

Configuration Options

General

The StripPrefix middleware strips the matching path prefix and stores it in a X-Forwarded-Prefix header.

!!! tip

Use a `StripPrefix` middleware if your backend listens on the root path (`/`) but should be exposed on a specific prefix.

prefixes

The prefixes option defines the prefixes to strip from the request URL.

For instance, /products also matches /products/shoes and /products/shirts.

If your backend is serving assets (e.g., images or JavaScript files), it can use the X-Forwarded-Prefix header to properly construct relative URLs. Using the previous example, the backend should return /products/shoes/image.png (and not /image.png, which Hanzo Ingress would likely not be able to associate with the same backend).

forceSlash

Optional, Default=true

!!! warning

`forceSlash` option is deprecated and should not be used.

The forceSlash option ensures the resulting stripped path is not the empty string, by replacing it with / when necessary.
