### Create and Join Memberlist Cluster

Source: https://github.com/hashicorp/memberlist/blob/master/README.md

Demonstrates how to create a new memberlist instance with default configuration and join an existing cluster. It also shows how to retrieve and print the list of current cluster members.

```go
/* Create the initial memberlist from a safe configuration.
   Please reference the godoc for other default config types.
   http://godoc.org/github.com/hashicorp/memberlist#Config
*/
list, err := memberlist.Create(memberlist.DefaultLocalConfig())
if err != nil {
	panic("Failed to create memberlist: " + err.Error())
}

// Join an existing cluster by specifying at least one known member.
n, err := list.Join([]string{"1.2.3.4"})
if err != nil {
	panic("Failed to join cluster: " + err.Error())
}

// Ask for members of the cluster
for _, member := range list.Members() {
	fmt.Printf("Member: %s %s\n", member.Name, member.Addr)
}

// Continue doing whatever you need, memberlist will maintain membership
// information in the background. Delegates can be used for receiving
// events when members join or leave.
