Azure Metadata Proxy
A reverse proxy that aims to manipulate the Azure metadata endpoint (e.g. https://management.azure.com/metadata/endpoints?api-version=2022-09-01) response for a certain API version.
The main reason is to allow users to change the resourceManager endpoint in the response from a global endpoint to a regional one (See example below).
NOTE: The functionality provided by this tool can be achieved by tools like mitmproxy as well.
Install
go install github.com/magodo/azure-metadata-proxy@main
Precondition
The proxy will run via TLS, which means you'll need to setup CA for the running host (e.g. localhost). Using mkcert can acheive this easily.
Example
This example shows how to manipulate the response to change the resourceManager to a regional endpoint, in context of Terraform AzureRM provider.
-
Open a terminal to run the proxy first:
azure-metadata-proxy -port 9999 -metadata='{"resourceManager": "https://westeurope.management.azure.com/"}' -
Run the provider by setting the
ARM_METADATA_HOSTNAME:ARM_METADATA_HOSTNAME=localhost:9999 terraform plan
