# Exposing FastCGI Servers
> **FastCGI** is a [binary protocol](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_protocol "Binary protocol") for interfacing interactive programs with a [web server](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_server "Web server"). [...] (It's) aim is to reduce the overhead related to interfacing between web server and CGI programs, allowing a server to handle more web page requests per unit of time.

The _ingress-nginx_ ingress controller can be used to directly expose [FastCGI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FastCGI) servers. Enabling FastCGI in your Ingress only requires setting the _backend-protocol_ annotation to `FCGI`, and with a couple more annotations you can customize the way _ingress-nginx_ handles the communication with your FastCGI _server_.
For most practical use-cases, php applications are a good example. PHP is not HTML so a FastCGI server like php-fpm processes a index.php script for the response to a request. See a working example below.
## Example Objects to Expose a FastCGI Pod
This [post in a FactCGI feature issue](https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/issues/8207#issuecomment-2161405468) describes a test for the FastCGI feature. The same test is described below here.
The _Pod_ example object below exposes port `9000`, which is the conventional FastCGI port.
## Example Objects to expose a FastCGI server pod
### The FasctCGI server pod
The _Pod_ object example below exposes port `9000`, which is the conventional FastCGI port.
```yaml
apiVersion: v1

spec:
containers:
- name: example-app
image: example-app:1.0
image: php:fpm-alpine
ports:
- containerPort: 9000
name: fastcgi
```
- For this example to work, a HTML response should be received from the FastCGI server being exposed
- A HTTP request to the FastCGI server pod should be sent
- The response should be generated by a php script as that is what we are demonstrating here
The image we are using here `php:fpm-alpine` does not ship with a ready to use php script inside it. So we need to provide the image with a simple php-script for this example to work.
- Use `kubectl exec` to get into the example-app pod
- You will land at the path `/var/www/html`
- Create a simple php script there at the path /var/www/html called index.php
- Make the index.php file look like this
```
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>PHP Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php echo '<p>FastCGI Test Worked!</p>'; ?>
</body>
</html>
```
- Save and exit from the shell in the pod
- If you delete the pod, then you will have to recreate the file as this method is not persistent
### The FastCGI service
The _Service_ object example below matches port `9000` from the _Pod_ object above.

And the _Ingress_ and _ConfigMap_ objects below demonstrates the supported _FastCGI_ specific annotations (NGINX actually has 50 FastCGI directives, all of which have not been exposed in the ingress yet), and matches the service `example-service`, and the port named `fastcgi` from above. The _ConfigMap_ **must** be created first for the _Ingress Controller_ to be able to find it when the _Ingress_ object is created, otherwise you will need to restart the _Ingress Controller_ pods.
### The configMap object and the ingress object
The _Ingress_ and _ConfigMap_ objects below demonstrate the supported _FastCGI_ specific annotations.
!!! Important
NGINX actually has 50 [FastCGI directives](https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_fastcgi_module.html#directives)
All of the nginx directives have not been exposed in the ingress yet
### The ConfigMap object
This configMap object is required to set the parameters of [FastCGI directives](https://nginx.org/en/docs/http/ngx_http_fastcgi_module.html#directives)
!!! Attention
- The _ConfigMap_ **must** be created before creating the ingress object
- The _Ingress Controller_ needs to find the configMap when the _Ingress_ object with the FastCGI annotations is created
- So create the configMap before the ingress
- If the configMap is created after the ingress is created, then you will need to restart the _Ingress Controller_ pods.
```yaml
# The ConfigMap MUST be created first for the ingress controller to be able to
# find it when the Ingress object is created.
apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
name: example-cm
data:
SCRIPT_FILENAME: "/example/index.php"
SCRIPT_FILENAME: "/var/www/html/index.php"

```
### The ingress object
- Do not create the ingress shown below until you have created the configMap seen above.
- You can see that this ingress matches the service `example-service`, and the port named `fastcgi` from above.

## Send a request to the exposed FastCGI server
You will have to look at the external-ip of the ingress or you have to send the HTTP request to the ClusterIP address of the ingress-nginx controller pod.

## FastCGI Ingress Annotations
To enable FastCGI, the `nginx.ingress.kubernetes.io/backend-protocol` annotation needs to be set to `FCGI`, which overrides the default `HTTP` value.
