Custom Parameter related to streams

[Tabarane]

Hi, I was wondering if we can add additional custom parameter within the stream path ,

custom_value1 : xyzzy

paths:
proxied:
source: rtsp://original-url
sourceOnDemand: yes
CamCustomID: xyzzy
StreamName: Xyzzy
CamOwnName : John

and retrieve this parameter using API, this will help in integration with other application

Hello, custom parameters at the moment are not availab,e but you can obtain the same result by creating a map into the script that is interacting with the API, and use it to pull every parameter you need. i.e. (node):

async function downloadFromAPI() {
    const myExtraParams = {
        "proxied": {
            "camCustomID": "xyzzy",
            "streamName": "Xyzzy",
            "camOwnName": "John",
        }
    };

    const res1 = await fetch("http://localhost:9997/v1/paths/list");
    const res2 = await res1.json();

    for (const path in res2.items) {
        console.log("extra params for path " + path + ":", myExtraParams[path]);
    }
}

You can also create "dummy" streams and update the configuration file as many times as you want. Then just request the configuration through the API and read the parameters :D
