Service address does not allow url path or scheme

[dimitridaras]

Expected Behaviour

I should be able to specify a scheme and url path for a service address in consul, for instance

"address": "http://mydomain.com/MyService/",

This is valid consul configuration (although I appreciate that it might not be a common way of configuring consul), as we are using it in production at the moment.

Actual Behaviour

I get an error:

to use service Address: http://mydomain.com/MyService/ and Port: 80 as it is invalid. Address must contain host only e.g. localhost and port must be greater than 0

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

Register a service in consul with an address similar to above.
Register consul in ocelot, similar to below

{
    "ReRoutes": [
        {
            "DownstreamPathTemplate": "/MyService/{test}",
            "DownstreamScheme": "http",
            "UpstreamPathTemplate": "/{test}",
            "UpstreamHttpMethod": [ "GET" ],
            "ServiceName": "MyService",
            "LoadBalancerOptions": {
                "Type": "LeastConnection"
            },
            "UpstreamHeaderTransform": {
                "Accept": "application/json"
            }
        }
    ],
    "GlobalConfiguration": {
        "BaseUrl": "http://localhost:5000/",
        "ServiceDiscoveryProvider": {
            "Host": "localhost",
            "Port": 8500,
            "Type": "Consul"
        }
    }

@dimitridaras thanks for your interest in the project, I would suggest easiest way to get this would be fork Ocleot.Provider.Consul and make your change. Implementing it in Ocelot will be a faff because Ocelot only expects to get host and port from consul not the path / scheme. That would need some kind of change. I will leave this issue open and might get round to doing it one day.
