Ocelot.Provider.Consul

This package adds Consul support to Ocelot via the package Consul.NET.

What's Different from the Original "Ocelot.Provider.Consul" Package?

• The application crashes at startup time if cannot access to the specified Consul server! In this package, this is fixed. The Ocelot gateway just startus up normally, uses the local appsettings/ocelot.json configuration file and starts trying to access Consul server using the specified PollingInterval (ms) value. Once it is accessed successfully, it now starts to use routes from Consul.
• PollingInterval in local config file was not being used. The value (if specified) in Consul server was being used instead. This behaviour has been changed to use local configuration file usage. Thus, PollingInterval value is being used from the local config file.
• After initial startup and successfully fetch of config from Consul, even after the Consul server is down, the Ocelot gateway is happy with the in-memory routes/configuration from latest fetch from Consul. Once the Consul server is up again, the config fill be tried to updated (since it might have been changed or not).
• "/gateway-routes" path will serve information about the current routes collection of the Gateway, both showing last fetched and file stored route configuration.
