Filter Naming Scheme

[XAMPPRocky]

I think now that the extensions/filters directory changes we'll need to update this along the current filters' names to fit the new scheme…

Right now I'm thinking of something along the lines of the following, I think the main question is where to put the version in the name, assuming we do want to version filters independently from quilkin. I'm personally leaning towards having the version as a prefix rather than suffix.

quilkin.filters.v1alpha1.compress
// or
quilkin.filters.compress.v1alpha1

I'm more inclined towards quilkin.filters.v1alpha1.compress (it's what Envoy does), for whatever reason it reads better to my eyes.

You say "more inclined", but your statement is in agreement with what I proposed. It's the current IDs where the version string is a suffix to the filter module (e.g. quilkin.extensions.filters.debug_filter.v1alpha1.Debug)

Oh that's a good point. I didn't read it like that. Yes. I agree - quilkin.extensions.filters.debug_filter.v1alpha1.Debug is the one I like 😄

quilkin.extensions.filters.debug_filter.v1alpha1.Debug SGTM!
