Indicating satellite-masters to the slaves? about satellite HOT 7 CLOSED

Here's where the masters are processed:

That's the only place in the code where we ever look at the :satellites key from the settings. We could instead have the

from satellite.

Does the slave take a SIGHUP to reload its config? If so consul-template could keep the list of satellites up to date. (Or maybe simply restarting slaves does not cause much havac on the servers?)

from satellite.

The satellite slaves are meant to be fully restarted--as long as they come back w/in 60 seconds or so, there shouldn't be any problems (I can't recall the exact timeout off the top of my head).

Ok, for me this works great:

(def settings
  {:satellites [{{range service "satellite-master"}}{:host "{{.Address}}:{{.Port}}"}
                {{end}}]
  ...

I have the master and slave both running as docker containers, so I just have consul-template restart the slave when it updates the config.

Would you be interested in contributing your docker containers & consul
templates to Satellite? We'd love to have them!

Of course. Once everything is stable I'll clean it up and extract any local environment dependencies that may have creeped in. I also deploy with ansible. While that is not so general just yet, it could be made so.

We love ansible!
