Add HoldLease Function #44

Closed cwarden closed 4 months ago

cwarden commented 5 months ago

Add a HoldLease function that can be used to renew a lease acquired from a separate process.

This is useful when you want to block while waiting for a lease, then renew the lease in the background, e.g.

$ export LOCK=$(deploylock-client acquire -n lock-name https://lock-server/)
$ deploylock-client renew -n lock-name -l $LOCK https://lock-server/ &
$ <do work while holding lease>
