Add support for further configuring `gateway.ingress.service` blocks to bring
this block up-to-date with currently available Consul API fields (except for
namespace and admin partition, which will need be handled under a different
PR). These fields are sent to Consul as part of the job endpoint submission hook
for Connect gateways.

This PR modifies references to the envoyproxy/envoy docker image to
explicitly include the docker.io prefix. This does not affect existing
users, but makes things easier for Podman users, who otherwise need to
specify the full name because Podman does not default to docker.io
When configuring Consul Service Mesh, it's sometimes necessary to
provide dynamic value that are only known to Nomad at runtime. By
interpolating configuration values (in addition to configuration keys),
user are able to pass these dynamic values to Consul from their Nomad
jobs.
* Mesh Gateway doc enhancements
1. I believe this line should be corrected to add mesh as one of the choices
2. I found that we are not setting this meta, and it is a required element for wan federation. I believe it would be helpful and potentially time saving to note that right here.
Update the ingress gateway documentation to remove the note stating
that a port must be specified for values in the `hosts` field when
the ingress gateway is listening on a non-standard HTTP port.
Specifying a port was required in Consul 1.8.0, but that requirement
was removed in 1.8.1 with hashicorp/consul#8190 which made Consul
include the port number when constructing the Envoy configuration.

This PR implements first-class support for Nomad running Consul
Connect Mesh Gateways. Mesh gateways enable services in the Connect
mesh to make cross-DC connections via gateways, where each datacenter
may not have full node interconnectivity.
Consul docs with more information:
https://www.consul.io/docs/connect/gateways/mesh-gateway
The following group level service block can be used to establish
a Connect mesh gateway.
service {
connect {
gateway {
mesh {
// no configuration
}
}
}
}
Services can make use of a mesh gateway by configuring so in their
upstream blocks, e.g.
service {
connect {
sidecar_service {
proxy {
upstreams {
destination_name = "<service>"
local_bind_port = <port>
datacenter = "<datacenter>"
mesh_gateway {
mode = "<mode>"
}
}
}
}
}
}
Typical use of a mesh gateway is to create a bridge between datacenters.
A mesh gateway should then be configured with a service port that is
mapped from a host_network configured on a WAN interface in Nomad agent
config, e.g.
client {
host_network "public" {
interface = "eth1"
}
}
Create a port mapping in the group.network block for use by the mesh
gateway service from the public host_network, e.g.
network {
mode = "bridge"
port "mesh_wan" {
host_network = "public"
}
}
Use this port label for the service.port of the mesh gateway, e.g.
service {
name = "mesh-gateway"
port = "mesh_wan"
connect {
gateway {
mesh {}
}
}
}
Currently Envoy is the only supported gateway implementation in Consul.
By default Nomad client will run the latest official Envoy docker image
supported by the local Consul agent. The Envoy task can be customized
by setting `meta.connect.gateway_image` in agent config or by setting
the `connect.sidecar_task` block.
Gateways require Consul 1.8.0+, enforced by the Nomad scheduler.
Closes#9446
Using the environment variable stopped working here a while back,
should be using the port label. Also upgrade to uuid-api:v5 which
supports linux/arm64.
This PR implements Nomad built-in support for running Consul Connect
terminating gateways. Such a gateway can be used by services running
inside the service mesh to access "legacy" services running outside
the service mesh while still making use of Consul's service identity
based networking and ACL policies.
https://www.consul.io/docs/connect/gateways/terminating-gateway
These gateways are declared as part of a task group level service
definition within the connect stanza.
service {
connect {
gateway {
proxy {
// envoy proxy configuration
}
terminating {
// terminating-gateway configuration entry
}
}
}
}
Currently Envoy is the only supported gateway implementation in
Consul. The gateay task can be customized by configuring the
connect.sidecar_task block.
When the gateway.terminating field is set, Nomad will write/update
the Configuration Entry into Consul on job submission. Because CEs
are global in scope and there may be more than one Nomad cluster
communicating with Consul, there is an assumption that any terminating
gateway defined in Nomad for a particular service will be the same
among Nomad clusters.
Gateways require Consul 1.8.0+, checked by a node constraint.
Closes#9445
