About:
consul-template is a daemon that renders templates from values stored in Consul. It enables dynamic configuration updates by watching for changes in the Consul key-value store. This tool is essential for managing application configuration in dynamic environments like microservices.
Key Features:
  • Dynamic template rendering from Consul data
  • File watching and reloading capabilities
  • Flexible template syntax using the Go templating language
  • Can execute arbitrary commands on template updates
Use Cases:
  • Generating dynamic NGINX or HAProxy configuration files
  • Injecting service discovery endpoints into application configs
  • Automating secrets retrieval for container environments
Alternatives:
  • confd – Similar functionality but uses different backends and template syntax
  • envconsul – Injects environment variables instead of rendering files, better for 12-factor apps
