dynamic

A special broker type where the inputs are identified by unique labels and can be created, changed and removed during runtime via a REST HTTP interface.

# Config fields, showing default values
input:
  label: ""
  dynamic:
    inputs: {}
    prefix: ""
    timeout: 5s

To GET a JSON map of input identifiers with their current uptimes use the /inputs endpoint.

To perform CRUD actions on the inputs themselves use POST, DELETE, and GET methods on the /inputs/{input_id} endpoint. When using POST the body of the request should be a YAML configuration for the input, if the input already exists it will be changed.
