Watch files

To declare a file that you wish to populate from Consul key-values, you use the watch define. This requires a source .ctmpl file and the file on-disk that you want to update.

consul_template::watch { 'common':
    template      => 'data/common.json.ctmpl.erb',
    template_vars => {
        'var1' => 'foo',
        'var2' => 'bar',
    },
    destination   => '/tmp/common.json',
    command       => 'true',
}

##Limitations

Depends on the JSON gem, or a modern ruby.
