generel config, an "include file option" would be helpful

[StefanSa]

hi there,
have this structure under /etc/vector

/etc/vector/modules
               └───sophos-xg/*.toml
               └───sophos-utm/*.toml
               └───cisco-asa/*.toml
               └───cisco-ios/*.toml
               └───juniper/*.toml

and start vector as follows:
vector -c /etc/vector/vector.toml -c /etc/vector/modules/*/*.toml

it would be helpful if this could be simplified, with this option Include e.g. in the vector.toml.

# Change this to use a non-default directory for Vector data storage:
# data_dir = "/var/lib/vector"

[api]
enabled = true

Include /etc/vector/modules/*/*.toml

With this option you don't need to customize the services of Linux / Windows after the installation,
because you can pass the config paths via Include in the *.toml file.
Would something like this be possible ?

Hi @StefanSa ! I think this is covered by #6789 . What do you think?

Hi @jszwedko
Yes i also think that this is covered Jesse.
When can we expect the realization here ?
