+## Etcd modules
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+etcd modules (mods) are higher order pieces of functionality that only
|
|
|
+speak to the client etcd API and are presented in the `/mod` HTTP path
|
|
|
+of the etcd service.
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
+The basic idea is that etcd can ship things like dashboards, master
|
|
|
+election APIs and other helpful services that would normally have to
|
|
|
+stand up and talk to an etcd cluster directly in the binary. It is a
|
|
|
+convienence and hopefully eases complexity in deployments.
