Allows capistrano to obtain the list of servers using a consul server

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'capistrano-consul'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install capistrano-consul

In capistrano.

require 'capistrano/consul'

In your code, then you can map a consul service to roles in capistrano

consul_service 'app_server', roles %w{web app}

Also, you can use #consul_all_nodes to refer to every node in consul (useful for some tasks)

consul_all_nodes roles %w{web app}

consul_url The api endpoint consul_token The Consul token needed if an ACL is specified consul_ssh_gateway You can configure an ssh gateway (i.e. a tunner that will be created before connecting to consul).

Example:

set :consul_url, 'http://localhost:8500'
set :consul_ssh_gateway, {
      host: your.gateway.server,
      user: ENV['USER'],
      port: 8500, (this port will be used for tunneling)
      options: {ssh options here}
    }
