Hello,
please consider adding range iterator item variable (say
`rng.iteritem`) for
the `server-template` directive so that it can be expanded in the
`<fqdn>:<port>`
part of the statement or anywhere else where applicable (see in the
example snippet
below).
Also to have general zero-padding converter (say `zeropad(<width>)`) to
pad values
with zeroes would be splendid for use with `server-template` or
elsewhere (therefor
I aggregated both things into single feature request).
-----snip-----
zeropad(<width>)
Performs a zero-padding of preceding expression to the given
<width>.
Example:
server-template s 3
"svc-%[rng.iteritem,zeropad(3)].domain.tld:80" check
# would be equivalent to:
server s1 svc-001.domain.tld:80 check
server s2 svc-002.domain.tld:80 check
server s3 svc-003.domain.tld:80 check
-----snip-----
I am not sure how hard it would be to implemented it but it could be
very helpful
in case you use many backend servers with consistent sequential naming
as shown in
the example snippet.
Many thanks for providing us wich such an excellent piece of software
which *HAProxy*
truly is!
Sincerely,
