How to registry service to consul about firecracker-task-driver

[cneira]

@ox0spy I have not checked that yet, but I'm assuming is a CNI more related configuration.
I want to make a couple of updates to the driver this couple of weeks so I could check this problem at the same time.

I'll take a look next week, if you solve this before let me know.

I tried but I failed, I can not make it work.

Because I can't get the CNI assigned IP Address.

@ox0spy is any of the examples working for you?, the network interface should pickup the ip address provided by your cni network configuration.

@ox0spy
This is working for me I just installed consul and tried the following

job "consul-example" {
  datacenters = ["dc1"]
  type        = "service"
  group "test" {
    restart {
      attempts = 0
      mode     = "fail"
    }
 service {
            name = "nwn-service"
            port = 22
            check {
                type = "tcp"
                interval = "10s"
                timeout = "5s"
            }
        }
    task "nwn" {
     driver = "firecracker-task-driver"
      config {
       Vcpus = 1 
       Mem = 128
       KernelImage= "/home/cneira/kernel-images/vmlinux.bin"
       BootDisk = "/dev/zvol/vms/centos7"
       Network = "default"
      }
    }
  }
}

and I also deploy consul by nomad

job "consul" {
  datacenters = ["dc1"]  group "consul" {
    count = 1
    task "consul" {
      driver = "raw_exec"
            
      config {
        command = "consul"
        args    = ["agent", "-dev"]
      }     
    }
  }
}

I followed this guide https://medium.com/hashicorp-engineering/hashicorp-nomad-from-zero-to-wow-1615345aa539 and the service registers on consul.

@ox0spy feel free to re-open if needed.

@cneira Thanks for your update.

Now also can not support address_mode = "alloc"

cni conf: /etc/cni/conf.d/firecracker.conflist

    },
    {

        }
        service {
            name = "sshd"
            port = "ssh"
            address_mode = "alloc"
            check {
                type = "tcp"

                timeout = "2s"
                address_mode = "alloc"
            }
        }

        task "sshd" {
            driver = "firecracker-task-driver"

            config {
                KernelImage = "/home/ox0spy/projects/nomad/study/firecracker/vmlinux.bin"

                Firecracker = "/usr/local/bin/firecracker"
                Vcpus       = 1
                Mem         = 128
                Network     = "firecracker"
            }
        }
    }
}

docs for address_mode in service block: https://www.nomadproject.io/docs/job-specification/service#address_mode

run job

nomad status <alloc-id> got the below error message:
