[Kea-users] Wildcard Includes in Kea configuration

Hi,

(this is a question that came up as a follow up from a Kea DHCP training from one participant)

is it possible to include multiple files into the Kea configuration using wildcards in the include statement?

This might help with a setup where the configuration file has been split into snippets managed by a configuration management tool.

I recognise that because of the nature of the Kea configuration file format (JSON) includes are very much position dependent and such a scheme can easy break in the case where the config files are manually managed, but it would help with automatic management systems (puppet, chef, ansible etc).

Would such a function be useful?

Greetings

Carsten
