getting consul hostname using consul-template

[arindam choudhury]

Hi,

I am using consul DNS. I am using a custom domain "arindamdomain.com".

So "agent1" becomes "agent1.node.dc1.arindamdomain.com".

Is there any way I can get it using consul-template?

Best Regards,

Arindam Choudhury

Hi Arindam,

There's a node function you can use to query nodes using consul-template - https://github.com/hashicorp/consul-template#node.

That's not super common though, usually you define services running on each node and you do queries around services - https://github.com/hashicorp/consul-template#service. The intro guide is a good place to learn about services - https://www.consul.io/intro/getting-started/install.html, and there's a DNS-specific guide here that might be useful if you are mixing Consul DNS with other services for your custom domain - https://www.consul.io/docs/guides/forwarding.html.

Hope that helps!
