# Coraza SPOE engine configuration.
#
# Written to /etc/haproxy/coraza-spoe.cfg by haproxy_manager.generate_config()
# when HAPROXY_CORAZA_SPOE_BACKEND env var is set. Referenced from haproxy.cfg
# via `filter spoe engine coraza config /etc/haproxy/coraza-spoe.cfg`.
#
# Engine name "coraza" must match the engine name in the filter line in the
# main config; group name "coraza-req" must match the send-spoe-group action.
# Application name "haproxy" must match the application block in coraza-spoa's
# config.yaml.
#
# Reference: this config follows the shape from coraza-spoa's upstream
# example/haproxy/coraza.cfg (v0.7.1). Arg names + ordering are required by
# Coraza-SPOA exactly as specified — DO NOT reorder or rename without
# coordinating with the agent.
