* Implementation of Weights Data structures
Adding this datastructure will allow us to resolve the
issues #1088 and #4198
This new structure defaults to values:
```
{ Passing: 1, Warning: 0 }
```
Which means, use weight of 0 for a Service in Warning State
while use Weight 1 for a Healthy Service.
Thus it remains compatible with previous Consul versions.
* Implemented weights for DNS SRV Records
* DNS properly support agents with weight support while server does not (backwards compatibility)
* Use Warning value of Weights of 1 by default
When using DNS interface with only_passing = false, all nodes
with non-Critical healthcheck used to have a weight value of 1.
While having weight.Warning = 0 as default value, this is probably
a bad idea as it breaks ascending compatibility.
Thus, we put a default value of 1 to be consistent with existing behaviour.
* Added documentation for new weight field in service description
* Better documentation about weights as suggested by @banks
* Return weight = 1 for unknown Check states as suggested by @banks
* Fixed typo (of -> or) in error message as requested by @mkeeler
* Fixed unstable unit test TestRetryJoin
* Fixed unstable tests
* Fixed wrong Fatalf format in `testrpc/wait.go`
* Added notes regarding DNS SRV lookup limitations regarding number of instances
* Documentation fixes and clarification regarding SRV records with weights as requested by @banks
* Rephrase docs
* Added log-file flag to capture Consul logs in a user specified file
* Refactored code.
* Refactored code. Added flags to rotate logs based on bytes and duration
* Added the flags for log file and log rotation on the webpage
* Fixed TestSantize from failing due to the addition of 3 flags
* Introduced changes : mutex, data-dir log writes, rotation logic
* Added test for logfile and updated the default log destination for docs
* Log name now uses UnixNano
* TestLogFile is now uses t.Parallel()
* Removed unnecessary int64Val function
* Updated docs to reflect default log name for log-file
* No longer writes to data-dir and adds .log if the filename has no extension
It fixes the following warnings:
agent/config/builder.go:1201: Errorf format %q has arg s of wrong type *string
agent/config/builder.go:1240: Errorf format %q has arg s of wrong type *string
agent/config will turn [{}] into {} (single element maps into a single
map) to work around HCL issues. These are resolved in HCL2 which I'm
sure Consul will switch to eventually.
This breaks the connect proxy configuration in service definition FILES
since we call this patch function. For now, let's just special-case skip
this. In the future we maybe Consul will adopt HCL2 and fix it, or we
can do something else if we want. This works and is tested.
This enables `consul agent -dev` to begin using Connect features with
the built-in CA. I think this is expected behavior since you can imagine
that new users would want to try.
There is no real downside since we're just using the built-in CA.
There are also a lot of small bug fixes found when testing lots of things end-to-end for the first time and some cleanup now it's integrated with real CA code.
