# consul\_keys
|
||
|
|
||
|
`consul_keys` reads values from the Consul key/value store.

This is a powerful way dynamically set values in templates.
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Example Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
data "consul_keys" "app" {
|
||
|
datacenter = "nyc1"
|
||
|
token = "abcd"
|
||
|
|
||
|
# Read the launch AMI from Consul
|
||
|
key {
|
||
|
name = "ami"
|
||
|
path = "service/app/launch_ami"
|
||
|
default = "ami-1234"
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
|
||
|
# Start our instance with the dynamic ami value
|
||
|
resource "aws_instance" "app" {
|
||
|
ami = "${data.consul_keys.app.var.ami}"
|
||
|
...
|
||
|
}
|
||
|
```
