==============================
Steven Armstrong <steven-cdist--@--armstrong.cc>
NAME
----
cdist-type__consul_template - manage the consul-template service
DESCRIPTION
-----------
Downloads and installs the consul-template binary from
https://github.com/hashicorp/consul-template/releases/download/.
Generates a global config file and creates directory for per template config files.
Note that the consul-template binary is downloaded on the server (the machine running
cdist) and then deployed to the target host using the __file type.
REQUIRED PARAMETERS
-------------------
None.
OPTIONAL PARAMETERS
-------------------
auth-username::
specify a username for basic authentication.
auth-password::
specify a password for basic authentication.
batch-size::
the size of the batch when polling multiple dependencies.
consul::
the location of the Consul instance to query (may be an IP address or FQDN) with port.
Defaults to 'localhost:8500'.
log-level::
The log level for output. This applies to the stdout/stderr logging as well
as syslog logging (if enabled). Valid values are "debug", "info", "warn",
and "err". The default value is "warn".
max-stale::
the maximum staleness of a query. If specified, Consul will distribute work among all
servers instead of just the leader.
retry::
the amount of time to wait if Consul returns an error when communicating
with the API.
state::
either 'present' or 'absent'. Defaults to 'present'
ssl-cert::
Path to an SSL client certificate to use to authenticate to the consul server.
Useful if the consul server "verify_incoming" option is set.
ssl-ca-cert::
Path to a CA certificate file, containing one or more CA certificates to
use to validate the certificate sent by the consul server to us. This is a
handy alternative to setting --ssl-no-verify if you are using your own CA.
syslog-facility::
The facility to use when sending to syslog. This requires the use of --syslog.
The default value is LOCAL0.
token::
the Consul API token.
version::
which version of consul-template to install. See ./files/versions for a list of
supported versions. Defaults to the latest known version.
wait::
the minimum(:maximum) to wait before rendering a new template to disk and
triggering a command, separated by a colon (:). If the optional maximum
value is omitted, it is assumed to be 4x the required minimum value.
BOOLEAN PARAMETERS
------------------
ssl::
use HTTPS while talking to Consul. Requires the Consul server to be configured to serve secure connections.
ssl-no-verify::
ignore certificate warnings. Only used if ssl is enabled.
syslog::
Send log output to syslog (in addition to stdout and stderr).
