* config entry: hardcode proxy-defaults name as global proxy-defaults can only have the name global. Because of this, we support not even setting the name in the config file: ``` kind = "proxy-defaults" ``` Previously, writing this would result in the output: ``` Config entry written: proxy-defaults/ ``` Now it will output: ``` Config entry written: proxy-defaults/global ``` This change follows what was done for the new Mesh config entry.
Consul API client
This package provides the api package which attempts to
provide programmatic access to the full Consul API.
Currently, all of the Consul APIs included in version 0.6.0 are supported.
Documentation
The full documentation is available on Godoc
Usage
Below is an example of using the Consul client:
package main
import "github.com/hashicorp/consul/api"
import "fmt"
func main() {
// Get a new client
client, err := api.NewClient(api.DefaultConfig())
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
// Get a handle to the KV API
kv := client.KV()
// PUT a new KV pair
p := &api.KVPair{Key: "REDIS_MAXCLIENTS", Value: []byte("1000")}
_, err = kv.Put(p, nil)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
// Lookup the pair
pair, _, err := kv.Get("REDIS_MAXCLIENTS", nil)
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
fmt.Printf("KV: %v %s\n", pair.Key, pair.Value)
}
To run this example, start a Consul server:
consul agent -dev
Copy the code above into a file such as main.go.
Install and run. You'll see a key (REDIS_MAXCLIENTS) and value (1000) printed.
$ go get
$ go run main.go
KV: REDIS_MAXCLIENTS 1000
After running the code, you can also view the values in the Consul UI on your local machine at http://localhost:8500/ui/dc1/kv
