Make the http_response plugin support arrays of adresses #5828

Closed mikkeschiren closed 5 years ago

Feature Request

It would be nice if the http_response plugin would have a array of addresses instead of one single. With an array of addresses you could build a simple pingdom like dashboard for a range of sites.

Proposal:

Make address become an array field instead of string.

Current behavior:

Addresss field is a string.

Desired behavior:

Address field shoud be an array - and also support arrays in the code.

Use case:

Build a pingdom like dashboard for a range of sites. Simpler handling of alerts if sites are down.

You can, of course, specify the plugin multiple times, but I think this would be worth doing to ease the configuration burden.
