Can server-template using consul identify port?

Help!
1

Hi,

I’m doing some experimenting using HAProxy 1.8.5 and automatic service discovery against consul

I’m using the following code which works fine
resolvers consuldns
nameserver dns 127.0.0.1:8600
resolve_retries 3
hold valid 100ms

frontend web
   bind   *:8080
   mode   http
   option http-server-close
   option forceclose

   default_backend sampleservice

backend sampleservice
   server-template srv 1-2 pingpong.service.dc1.consul:8000 inter 1s resolvers consuldns resolve-prefer ipv4 check

what i’d like to know is if it is possible to have server-template detect the port from the SRV record.
I have multiple instance running on the same host for some services so this setup wouldn’t work for what I want to do.
If I drop the :800 of the server-template then it complains that it can’t find any valid servers
Does anyone know if it is possible to do this or if its on a roadmap?

Thanks!

You can use this configuration

server-template srv 1-2 _pingpong._tcp.service.dc1.consul inter 1s resolvers consuldns resolve-prefer ipv4 resolve-opts allow-dup-ip check
