Plans for HTTP Backend Support

[dipeti]

Hi,

I am running a RESTful config-server that is used as a source of truth for various custom configuration properties like CIDRs, IP addresses, hostnames etc.

This config-server is used as a data-source for many of the terraform scripts as well, see:

data "http" "dc_config" {
  url      = "${var.config_server_url}/api/${var.config_server_api_version}/datacenters/${var.datacenter_name}/configs"
  insecure = true
  request_headers = {
    Accept = "application/json"
  }
}

locals {
  config = jsondecode(data.http.dc_config.response_body)
}

I was wondering if there's any plans to implement an HTTP Backend in vals so I can utilize the config-server for my helmfile deployments too.
