How do I set up provenance and attestations for Consul?

Setting up provenance and attestations for Consul ensures that your microservices communicate securely and that you can verify the authenticity and integrity of the services being used. This guide demonstrates how to implement these features.

<?php // Load the Consul client $consul = new \Consul\Consul(); // Set up the configurations for provenance $config = [ 'verify' => true, 'ca_file' => '/path/to/ca.crt', 'cert_file' => '/path/to/client.crt', 'key_file' => '/path/to/client.key' ]; // Register service with provenance $service = [ 'service' => 'example-service', 'tags' => ['provenance-enabled'], 'port' => 8080, 'address' => '127.0.0.1', 'meta' => ['environment' => 'production', 'version' => '1.0'] ]; $consul->agent->service->register($service, $config); // Set up attestations $attestation = [ "id" => "example-service-attestation", "payload" => json_encode(["version" => "1.0", "service" => "example-service"]), "signature" => "base64-encoded-signature" ]; // Submit attestation $consul->agent->attestation->submit($attestation); ?>
