Feature request: consul_service resource

[c4milo]

One scenario where this will be handy is for registering RDS instances as services in Consul, from Terraform.

Am looking for this as well, and for the same reason. I've started a PoC branch to get things rolling:

What's needed to get this across the line?

[maxenglander]

@samdunne I'm working on two resources, consul_agent_service and consul_catalog_entry, both do more-or-less the same thing but are subtly different. The first is pretty much ready to go. The latter is close, but I probably won't have time to finish it until next week. If you want to give it a spin before then, feel free to check out the PR and try consul_agent_service.

Also, (to everyone) I didn't realize each of my commits was resulting in a new comment here - apologies for that.

Hi @phinze, I submitted a PR to get some feedback, and also struggling with a "diffs didn't match" issue that I could use some help with, whenever you or someone on the team gets a chance.

+1 Similar to OP's use case, we could really use this for registering AWS endpoints as services into consul (kinesis, lambda, s3, RDS, etc)

@phinze any traction on the PR?

[alexlafreniere]

+1 would love a service resource.

+1 same here

[dmportella]

what is the status of this? is it still in development?

[maxenglander]

Hey @dmportella - as of now, I am not doing further development on this. Happy to do further development based on the interest of other would-be users, but, as of now, I believe the new resources I've developed (consul_service, consul_node, etc.) satisfy the use cases articulated by other people in this ticket.

Would love more feedback from would-be users and from @phinze!
