Hi… Remember that that part of the docs site habitually leaves a lot of things implicit, . (It doesn’t mention that you need to install the litestream
binary as an additional step in your Dockerfile, for example.)
Also definitely do heed its warning:
This approach only works if you are running a static lease on your cluster.
(Your litefs.yml
still has type: 'consul'
—if I’m reading the intended branch.)
Have you seen the newly announced, Consul-friendly alternative?

It looks promising, although I haven’t delved into it myself yet…
