Query Consul from the command line and SSH into a server from Consul catalog.

go get -u github.com/outbrain/consult

consult needs to know where Consul's API is, this can be configured using the CONSUL_URL environment variable or the --server command line flag. Run consult -h or consult help for a complete list of flags.

• --json, -j - JSON output
• --detailed, -d - Print detailed results with header line
• --dc=DC_NAME - Datacenter to query, can be specified multiple times
• --all-dcs - Query all datacenters. Overrides the --dc flag

To list the node for service and tag:

consult query --service=my_awesome_service --tag=some_tag

Multiple tags - you can choose to match any or all tags. By default, all tags must be matched.

consult query -s my_awesome_service -t tag1 -t tag2 -m any

Multiple datacenter support

consult query -s service1 --dc dc1 --dc dc2
consult query -s service1 --all-dcs

query flags also work on http and ssh subcommands.

consult ssh --service=my_awesome_service --tag=some_tag --username=joe

--username is optional of course
