Feature Request: New Sideloading Sources #1751

Open jcmcken opened 6 years ago

jcmcken commented 6 years ago

I'm sure there's already internal issues/plans for additional sideloading sources, but I didn't see any public issues yet.

Here are some additional sideloading sources that might be useful:

Script/exec source (execute a script, return YAML data)
HTTP/S source (e.g. issue an HTTPS GET, return YAML data)
Redis source (e.g. HGETALL a hash and load data)

Related issues #722, #981

There is a sideloading feature, but according to the documentation, it only updates the cache on task creation/reload. What I need is a feature to enrich data in real time by e.g. calling redis on every row. I'm not sure about the future of Kapacitor at all; it seems to me that it doesn't get too much love anymore.
