# py-consul [![PyPi version](https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/py-consul.svg)](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/py-consul/) [![Python version](https://img.shields.io/badge/python-3.8+-blue.svg)](https://www.python.org/downloads/) ![Status](https://img.shields.io/badge/status-maintained-green.svg)

Fork intent
Status
-----------
This project is maintained and actively developed by Criteo.
We aim at converging towards a full compatibility with the official Consul API.

The origin project https://github.com/cablehead/python-consul is not maintained
since 2018. As we're not able to get in touch with the maintainer (cablehead)
to merge and release our PRs, we've forked the project in order to continue the
maintenance of the project. We also renamed the project to be able to upload
on pypi; see https://pypi.org/project/py-consul/
We're currently supporting consul 1.13 up to 1.17. Due to quite a few changes
since our development started (see section "A bit of history"), some endpoints are
still partially handled.

Therefore, we are open to contributions and suggestions.

A bit of history
-----------

The origin project [python-consul](https://github.com/cablehead/python-consul) is not maintained
since 2018. As we were not able to get in touch with the maintainer (cablehead)
to merge and release our PRs, we've forked the project in order to continue the
maintenance of the project. We also renamed the project to be able to upload
on pypi; see [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/py-consul/)

Following some major changes, we decided to detach this fork from the original project
and move from [criteo fork space](https://github.com/criteo-forks/)
to [criteo space](https://github.com/criteo/).
