consul-clojure, a Consul client for Clojure

Consul is an awesome service discovery and configuration provider.

[com.nedap.staffing-solutions/consul-clojure "0.7.5"]

Changelog

0.7.4

This is a minor update that is BREAKING for the catalog-services function.

Fixed catalog-services query to return a hashmap with service names as keys. Previously the service names were kebab-cased and sometimes that would lead to service names that would not exist. Added test for the catalog-services operation. Fixed the prepared queries parameters handling. Updated dependencies.

0.7.3

Prepared queries support.

0.7.2

This is a minor update

[consul-clojure "0.7.1"]
  • [jwkoelewijn] Fixes issue with TTL check

0.7.1

This is a minor update

[consul-clojure "0.7.1"]
  • [pimeys] Fixed issue where bytes were serialized using the platform encoding instead of UTF-8

0.7.0

Consul 0.7 Features

  • Consul 0.7 KV transactions courtesy of @pimeys

0.6.0

This is a major update that may be BREAKING.

[consul-clojure "0.6.0"]
  • Pulled in the following changes from a fork
  • BREAK: Dropped use of metadata for tracking various values
  • BREAK: No more keyword args in favor of maps
  • BREAK: Dropped the dependency on com.stuartsierra.component and components in favor of fns
  • FIX: NPE on first :failures increment
  • Add leader watch

0.1.0

Initial release

[consul-clojure "0.1.0"] ;; initial

Goals

Provide a useful library for building Consul aware Clojure applications.

Getting Started

First, you'll need to setup a local consul agent. See setup instructions. It's much easier to see what's happening by using the consul-web-ui.

This is the LaunchAgent configuration I use for OSX after installing consul and consul-web-ui.

</plist>

Connections

Given much of the time one is interacting with a local consul agent, the keyword :local can be used to assume the defaults. In those other cases where someone has gotten "creative" in the deployment of consul or you need to connect to a remote server, you can use a clj-http-lite compatible request maps.

{:server-name "127.0.0.1" :server-port 8500}

Key/Value store

When using the Key/Value store endpoints directly, one has to contend with a variety of different response formats depending upon the parameters passed. Rather than continue with this approach, different functions are used instead.

Getting a key:

(require '[consul.core :as consul])

(consul/kv-get :local "my-key")
=> ["my-key" nil]

But what about the consul index information?

(meta (consul/kv-get :local "my-key"))
=> {:x-consul-lastcontact "0", :known-leader true, :modify-index 352}

Setting a value:

(consul/kv-put :local "my-key" "a")
=> true

Want a list of keys?

(consul/kv-keys :local "my")
=> #{"my-key"}

Don't want a key?

(consul/kv-del :local "my-key")
=> true

Let's remove more than one:

(consul/kv-put :local "key-1" "a")
=> true
(consul/kv-put :local "key-2" nil)
=> true
(consul/kv-keys :local "key")
=> #{"key-1" "key-2"}

(consul/kv-del :local "key" :recurse? true)
=> true
(consul/kv-keys :local "key")
=> #{}

Atomic transactions (available in Consul 0.7)

The txn library allows executing multiple operations in an atomic transaction. All operations in the txn Consul 0.7 txn documentation are supported https://www.consul.io/docs/agent/http/kv.html

The result of a transaction is always either a list of results, or an exception if the transaction was not successful.

(require '[consul.txn :as txn])

(txn/put :local (fn [tx] (txn/kv-set tx "key" "val")
                         (txn/kv-get tx "key")))

=> ({:create-index 3296,
     :flags 0,
     :key "key",
     :lock-index 0,
     :modify-index 3296,
     :value nil}
    {:create-index 3296,
     :flags 0,
     :key "key",
     :lock-index 0,
     :modify-index 3296,
     :value "val"})

If any of the operations fail, the whole transaction fails. Errors are reported in the exception :errors key.

Currently supported operations: kv-set, kv-get, kv-set-cas, kv-lock, kv-unlock, kv-get-tree, kv-check-index, kv-check-session, kv-delete, kv-delete-tree, kv-delete-cas.

Agent

The agent consul messages generally are where most applications will interact with Consul.

Return the checks a local agent is managing:

(agent-checks :local)
=> {"service:redis-04"
    {:Name "Service redis-shard-1' check",
     :ServiceName "redis-shard-1",
     :Status "warning",
     :CheckID "service:redis-04",
     :Output
     "Could not connect to Redis at 127.0.0.1:6503: Connection refused\n",
     :Notes "",
     :Node "MacBook-Pro.attlocal.net",
     :ServiceID "redis-04"}}

List services registered with the agent.

(agent-services :local)
=> {"consul"
    {:ID "consul", :Service "consul", :Tags [], :Address "", :Port 8300}}

List members the agent sees.

(agent-members :local)
=> ({:DelegateMax 4,
     :Name "server.domain.net",
     :Addr "192.168.1.72",
     :ProtocolMin 1,
     :Status 1,
     :ProtocolMax 2,
     :DelegateCur 4,
     :DelegateMin 2,
     :ProtocolCur 2,
     :Tags
     {:bootstrap "1",
      :build "0.5.2:9a9cc934",
      :dc "dc1",
      :port "8300",
      :role "consul",
      :vsn "2",
      :vsn_max "2",
      :vsn_min "1"},
     :Port 8301})

Return the local agent configuration.

(agent-self :local)
=> ...

Put a node into maintenance mode.

(agent-maintenance :local true)
=> true

Take it out of maintenance mode.

(agent-maintenance :local false)
=> true

Join a node into a cluster using the RPC address.

(agent-join :local "10.1.3.1:8400")
=> true

Force leave a node.

(agent-force-leave :local "10.1.3.1:8400")
=> true
