* Updates Raft library to get new snapshot/restore API. * Basic backup and restore working, but need some cleanup. * Breaks out a snapshot module and adds a SHA256 integrity check. * Adds snapshot ACL and fills in some missing comments. * Require a consistent read for snapshots. * Make sure snapshot works if ACLs aren't enabled. * Adds a bit of package documentation. * Returns an empty response from restore to avoid EOF errors. * Adds API client support for snapshots. * Makes internal file names match on-disk file snapshots. * Adds DC and token coverage for snapshot API test. * Adds missing documentation. * Adds a unit test for the snapshot client endpoint. * Moves the connection pool out of the client for easier testing. * Fixes an incidental issue in the prepared query unit test. I realized I had two servers in bootstrap mode so this wasn't a good setup. * Adds a half close to the TCP stream and fixes panic on error. * Adds client and endpoint tests for snapshots. * Moves the pool back into the snapshot RPC client. * Adds a TLS test and fixes half-closes for TLS connections. * Tweaks some comments. * Adds a low-level snapshot test. This is independent of Consul so we can pull this out into a library later if we want to. * Cleans up snapshot and archive and completes archive tests. * Sends a clear error for snapshot operations in dev mode. Snapshots require the Raft snapshots to be readable, which isn't supported in dev mode. Send a clear error instead of a deep-down Raft one. * Adds docs for the snapshot endpoint. * Adds a stale mode and index feedback for snapshot saves. This gives folks a way to extract data even if the cluster has no leader. * Changes the internal format of a snapshot from zip to tgz. * Pulls in Raft fix to cancel inflight before a restore. * Pulls in new Raft restore interface. * Adds metadata to snapshot saves and a verify function. * Adds basic save and restore snapshot CLI commands. * Gets rid of tarball extensions and adds restore message. * Fixes an incidental bad link in the KV docs. * Adds documentation for the snapshot CLI commands. * Scuttle any request body when a snapshot is saved. * Fixes archive unit test error message check. * Allows for nil output writers in snapshot RPC handlers. * Renames hash list Decode to DecodeAndVerify. * Closes the client connection for snapshot ops. * Lowers timeout for restore ops. * Updates Raft vendor to get new Restore signature and integrates with Consul. * Bounces the leader's internal state when we do a restore. |

Consul
- Website: https://www.consul.io
- Chat: Gitter
- Mailing list: Google Groups
Consul is a tool for service discovery and configuration. Consul is distributed, highly available, and extremely scalable.
Consul provides several key features:
-
Service Discovery - Consul makes it simple for services to register themselves and to discover other services via a DNS or HTTP interface. External services such as SaaS providers can be registered as well.
-
Health Checking - Health Checking enables Consul to quickly alert operators about any issues in a cluster. The integration with service discovery prevents routing traffic to unhealthy hosts and enables service level circuit breakers.
-
Key/Value Storage - A flexible key/value store enables storing dynamic configuration, feature flagging, coordination, leader election and more. The simple HTTP API makes it easy to use anywhere.
-
Multi-Datacenter - Consul is built to be datacenter aware, and can support any number of regions without complex configuration.
Consul runs on Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD, Solaris, and Windows.
Quick Start
An extensive quick start is viewable on the Consul website:
https://www.consul.io/intro/getting-started/install.html
Documentation
Full, comprehensive documentation is viewable on the Consul website:
Developing Consul
If you wish to work on Consul itself, you'll first need Go installed (version 1.6+ is required). Make sure you have Go properly installed, including setting up your GOPATH.
Next, clone this repository into $GOPATH/src/github.com/hashicorp/consul
and
then just type make
. In a few moments, you'll have a working consul
executable:
$ make
...
$ bin/consul
...
Note: make
will also place a copy of the binary in the first part of your $GOPATH
.
You can run tests by typing make test
.
If you make any changes to the code, run make format
in order to automatically
format the code according to Go standards.
Building Consul on Windows
Make sure Go 1.6+ is installed on your system and that the Go command is in your %PATH%.
For building Consul on Windows, you also need to have MinGW installed. TDM-GCC is a simple bundle installer which has all the required tools for building Consul with MinGW.
Install TDM-GCC and make sure it has been added to your %PATH%.
If all goes well, you should be able to build Consul by running make.bat
from a
command prompt.
See also golang/winstrap and golang/wiki/WindowsBuild for more information of how to set up a general Go build environment on Windows with MinGW.
Vendoring
Consul currently uses govendor for vendoring.
