kvexpress should timeout faster when attempting to connect to consul #99

Open agy opened 7 years ago

agy commented 7 years ago

Overview

Currently kvexpress takes a long time to timeout when attempting to connect to Consul.

The error is:

Panic: Giving up on Consul. id:nokey location:no_more_retries

There should be a configurable timeout value to allow kvexpress to timeout faster.

Steps to Reproduce

Ensure that Consul is not running on the node
Run kvexpress on this node
Wait a long time
See the error

What I Expect

kvexpress to error out saying that it cannot connect to Consul.
