This PR enables jobs configured with a custom sidecar_task to make
use of the `service.expose` feature for creating checks on services
in the service mesh. Before we would check that sidecar_task had not
been set (indicating that something other than envoy may be in use,
which would not support envoy's expose feature). However Consul has
not added support for anything other than envoy and probably never
will, so having the restriction in place seems like an unnecessary
hindrance. If Consul ever does support something other than Envoy,
they will likely find a way to provide the expose feature anyway.
Fixes#9854
This PR implements Nomad built-in support for running Consul Connect
terminating gateways. Such a gateway can be used by services running
inside the service mesh to access "legacy" services running outside
the service mesh while still making use of Consul's service identity
based networking and ACL policies.
https://www.consul.io/docs/connect/gateways/terminating-gateway
These gateways are declared as part of a task group level service
definition within the connect stanza.
service {
connect {
gateway {
proxy {
// envoy proxy configuration
}
terminating {
// terminating-gateway configuration entry
}
}
}
}
Currently Envoy is the only supported gateway implementation in
Consul. The gateay task can be customized by configuring the
connect.sidecar_task block.
When the gateway.terminating field is set, Nomad will write/update
the Configuration Entry into Consul on job submission. Because CEs
are global in scope and there may be more than one Nomad cluster
communicating with Consul, there is an assumption that any terminating
gateway defined in Nomad for a particular service will be the same
among Nomad clusters.
Gateways require Consul 1.8.0+, checked by a node constraint.
Closes#9445
Connect ingress gateway services were being registered into Consul without
an explicit deterministic service ID. Consul would generate one automatically,
but then Nomad would have no way to register a second gateway on the same agent
as it would not supply 'proxy-id' during envoy bootstrap.
Set the ServiceID for gateways, and supply 'proxy-id' when doing envoy bootstrap.
Fixes#9834
Add the ingress gateway example from the noamd connect examples
to the e2e Connect suite. Includes the ACLs enabled version,
which means the nomad server consul acl policy will require
operator=write permission.
Adds 2 tests around Connect Native. Both make use of the example connect native
services in https://github.com/hashicorp/nomad-connect-examples
One of them runs without Consul ACLs enabled, the other with.
Provide script for managing Consul ACLs on a TF provisioned cluster for
e2e testing. Script can be used to 'enable' or 'disable' Consul ACLs,
and automatically takes care of the bootstrapping process if necessary.
The bootstrapping process takes a long time, so we may need to
extend the overall e2e timeout (20 minutes seems fine).
Introduces basic tests for Consul Connect with ACLs.
