This allows addresses to be tagged at the service level similar to what we allow for nodes already. The address translation that can be enabled with the `translate_wan_addrs` config was updated to take these new addresses into account as well.

Catalog HTTP API
The /catalog
endpoints register and deregister nodes, services, and checks in
Consul. The catalog should not be confused with the agent, since some of the
API methods look similar.
Register Entity
This endpoint is a low-level mechanism for registering or updating entries in the catalog. It is usually preferable to instead use the agent endpoints for registration as they are simpler and perform anti-entropy.
Method | Path | Produces |

Parameters
-
ID
(string: "")
- An optional UUID to assign to the node. This must be a 36-character UUID-formatted string. -
Node
(string: <required>)
- Specifies the node ID to register. -
Address
(string: <required>)
- Specifies the address to register. -
Datacenter
(string: "")
- Specifies the datacenter, which defaults to the agent's datacenter if not provided. -
TaggedAddresses
(map<string|string>: nil)
- Specifies the tagged addresses. -
NodeMeta
(map<string|string>: nil)
- Specifies arbitrary KV metadata pairs for filtering purposes. -
Service
(Service: nil)
- Specifies to register a service. IfID
is not provided, it will be defaulted to the value of theService.Service
property. Only one service with a givenID
may be present per node. The serviceTags
,Address
,Meta
, andPort
fields are all optional. For more information about these fields and the implications of setting them, see the Service - Agent API page as registering services differs between using this or the Services Agent endpoint. -
Check
(Check: nil)
- Specifies to register a check. The register API manipulates the health check entry in the Catalog, but it does not setup the script, TTL, or HTTP check to monitor the node's health. To truly enable a new health check, the check must either be provided in agent configuration or set via the agent endpoint.The
CheckID
can be omitted and will default to the value ofName
. As withService.ID
, theCheckID
must be unique on this node.Notes
is an opaque field that is meant to hold human-readable text. If aServiceID
is provided that matches theID
of a service on that node, the check is treated as a service level health check, instead of a node level health check. TheStatus
must be one ofpassing
,warning
, orcritical
.The
Definition
field can be provided with details for a TCP or HTTP health check. For more information, see the Health Checks page.Multiple checks can be provided by replacing
Check
withChecks
and sending an array ofCheck
objects. -
SkipNodeUpdate
(bool: false)
- Specifies whether to skip updating the node's information in the registration. This is useful in the case where only a health check or service entry on a node needs to be updated or when a register request is intended to update a service entry or health check. In both use cases, node information will not be overwritten, if the node is already registered. Note, if the paramater is enabled for a node that doesn't exist, it will still be created.
It is important to note that Check
does not have to be provided with Service
and vice versa. A catalog entry can have either, neither, or both.

List Datacenters
This endpoint returns the list of all known datacenters. The datacenters will be sorted in ascending order based on the estimated median round trip time from the server to the servers in that datacenter.
This endpoint does not require a cluster leader and will succeed even during an availability outage. Therefore, it can be used as a simple check to see if any Consul servers are routable.

List Nodes for Connect-capable Service
This endpoint returns the nodes providing a Connect-capable service in a given datacenter. This will include both proxies and native integrations. A service may register both Connect-capable and incapable services at the same time, so this endpoint may be used to filter only the Connect-capable endpoints.
