Operate a global reconfiguration that associate the tuple (local environment information, a cluster service)
- Reconfigure an external service with local info (DNS with public IP returned by the router via IGD)

Dependencies

The reqwest crate "will make use of system-native transport layer security to connect to HTTPS destinations". See reqwest's documentation for more information.

Operate

You need to add the following to your nomad config file :

client {
  [...]

  options {
    docker.privileged.enabled = "true"
  } 
}

cargo build
consul agent -dev # in a separate terminal

# adapt following values to your configuration
export DIPLONAT_PRIVATE_IP="192.168.0.18"
export DIPLONAT_REFRESH_TIME="60"
export DIPLONAT_EXPIRATION_TIME="300"
export DIPLONAT_CONSUL_NODE_NAME="lheureduthe"
export RUST_LOG=debug
cargo run

Design Guidelines

Diplonat is made of a set of Components. Components communicate between them thanks to tokio::sync::watch transferring copiable messages. Each message must contain the whole state (and not a transition) as messages can be lost if a more recent message is received. This choice has been made to limit bugs. If you need to watch two actors and merge their content, you may use tokio::sync::select. When you read a value from source 1, you must cache it to be able to merge it later when you read from source 2.

About Consul Catalog

We query the /v1/catalog/node/<node> endpoint
We can watch it thanks to Blocking Queries

eg:

curl -vvv http://127.0.0.1:8500/v1/catalog/node/lheureduthe
# returns X-Consul-Index: 15
curl -vvv http://127.0.0.1:8500/v1/catalog/node/lheureduthe?index=15

Each time you do the request, the whole list of services bound to the node is returned.

To test the Consul Catalog part, you can do:

consul agent -dev #in a separate terminal, if not already running
consul services register -name=fake_leet -tag="(diplonat (tcp_port 1337) (tcp_port 1338 1339))"
consul services register -name=fake_dns  -tag="(diplonat (udp_port 53) (tcp_port 53))"
consul services register -name=fake_irc  -tag="(diplonat (udp_port 6667 6666))"
consul services -id=example
