MQTT Broker only allows IPs & not URLs

PaytonPeterson commented 4 years ago

Describe the bug When entering configuration information for MQTT server - the "Broker IP" field will not accept a Hostname/URL. Will only accept an IP address.

To Reproduce Setup a new MQTT service and enter a URL.

Expected behavior Allowance of entered URL

Desktop (please complete the following information):

OS: Mac 10.15.4
Browser: Chrome
Companion Version: 2.1.0 (47823d0-2493)

Additional context Some of the MQTT servers that are widely used use domain names to resolve to IPs that are changing. Only being able to enter an IP in this field limits the usability of the MQTT service.

Same request here. I am using MQTT which has a dynamic IP but a static hostname.

Thanks, I have rebased and merged the PR for this onto the overhaul for companion 3.0, so expect it to be available once 3.0 hits beta
