pshima / consul-snapshot

consul-snapshot is a backup and restore utility for Consul (https://www.consul.io). This is slightly different than some other utilities out there as this runs as a daemon for backups and ships them to S3. Also has integrated monitoring and backup health checks.

No keys are returned from KV when no prefix is specified #20

Using the 0.2.2 release, any attempts to backup the entire KV store failed to find any keys. Examining strace output from this process revealed that the api URL is "GET /v1/kv//?consistent=&recurse=". These URLs lead to redirects.

There is a fix that went into Consul API a few weeks after the 0.2.2 release that avoids a API redirect by removing the trailing slash from the key:

I downloaded consul-snapshot source and recompiled after patching the vendored consul/api to match, and using that build, the KV backup worked.

Is it possible to create a new release compiled against the newer version of the Consol API ? I believe that will fix this problem.
