extra_params doesn't merge

[mcoms]

I'd like to change the DNS port Consul listens on. If I include the following for extra_params:

default['consul']['extra_params'] = { 'ports' => { 'dns' => 53 }, 'recursor' => '8.8.8.8' }

The resulting default.json is:

{
  "ports": {
    "dns": 53
  },
  "recursor": "8.8.8.8",
  "data_dir": "/var/lib/consul",
  "server": true,
  "ports": {
    "dns": 8600,
    "http": 8500,
    "rpc": 8400,
    "serf_lan": 8301,
    "serf_wan": 8302,
    "server": 8300
  }
}

And the consul service fails to start.

Ah, scratch that... I discovered:

default['consul']['ports'] = {
  'dns'      => 8600,
  'http'     => 8500,
  'rpc'      => 8400,
  'serf_lan' => 8301,
  'serf_wan' => 8302,
  "server"   => 8300,
}
