Is it (already) possible to retrieve a list of all the peers for a cluster? about summitdb HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi Aaron, The RAFTPEERS command will return a list of the peers and their status.

127.0.0.1:7481> raftpeers
1) "127.0.0.1:7481"
2) "Leader"
3) "127.0.0.1:7482"
4) "Follower"
5) "127.0.0.1:7483"
6) "Follower"

This is useful if you want to look for failures or log leadership changes, such as for cluster diagnostics.

Even with a sane cluster with all nodes running 100%, there will occasionally be leadership changes. As long as your client connection follows the -TRY <addr> responses and updates the leader, you should be good.

Thanks!

I now appear to be bumping up against the "What is redigo actually returning..." problem similar to an issue I filed for Tile-38.

I tried the OUTPUT json trick but it doesn't appear that SummitDB knows about this? Thoughts?

That's an array of bulk strings. The redis.Strings(conn.Do("RAFTPEERS")) should work.

Bingo, thanks! One day I will figure out redigo responses...

summitdb told me to try redis://127.0.0.1:7483 instead, so here we go...

I agree. Redigo can take a little getting use to.
