Python client for Consul.io
The origin project https://github.com/cablehead/python-consul is not maintained since 2018. As we're not able to get in touch with the maintainer (cablehead) to merge and release our PRs, we've forked the project in order to continue the maintenance of the project. We also renamed the project to be able to upload on pypi; see https://pypi.org/project/py-consul/
import consul
c = consul.Consul()
# poll a key for updates
index = None
while True:
index, data = c.kv.get('foo', index=index)
print data['Value']
# in another process
c.kv.put('foo', 'bar')pip install py-consul
Note: When using py-consul library in environment with proxy server, setting of http_proxy, https_proxy and no_proxy environment variables can be required for proper functionality.
There's a few API endpoints still to go to expose all features available in Consul v0.6.0. If you need an endpoint that's not in the documentation, just open an issue and I'll try and add it straight away.
py-consul is currently maintained by criteo folks.
Please reach out if you're interested in being a maintainer as well. Otherwise, open a PR or Issue we'll try and respond as quickly as we're able.
