💖 cdist-type__consul_watch_nodes 💖

okay so bestie, welcome to cdist-type__consul_watch_nodes — it's a cdist type from the cdist manual, and it's literally the one that handles consul nodes watches. yep. that's the whole vibe. let's get into it 🦋

✨ NAME ✨

cdist-type__consul_watch_nodes — manages consul nodes watches 🎀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So what this type actually does is generate and deploy watch definitions of type 'nodes' for a consul agent. that's it, that's the job, and it does it beautifully 💅

And because the parameter docs live elsewhere (iykyk), the manual is like: go read http://www.consul.io/docs/agent/watches.html for the parameter documentation. no cap, that's where the details are 🔥

👑 REQUIRED PARAMETERS 👑

these ones you cannot skip, bestie. they're mandatory. main character requirements only:

  • handler — the handler to invoke when the data view updates. that's the thing that gets called when stuff changes, periodt ✨

🎀 OPTIONAL PARAMETERS 🎀

the little extras, the accessories to your outfit:

  • datacenter — can be provided to override the agent's default datacenter 🌈
  • state — if this watch is 'present' or 'absent'. Defaults to 'present'. 💖
  • token — can be provided to override the agent's default ACL token 🔑

🦋 EXAMPLES 🦋

here's the moment you've been waiting for, the actual usage:

__consul_watch_nodes some-id \
   --handler /usr/bin/my-key-handler.sh

look at that. gorgeous. iconic. copy it, run it, slay 💅
