Getting ES host name in scripted dashboard

[martinhynar]

I am about to code scripted Kibana dashboard that generates bunch of links to other dedicated dashboards based on result from ES query.

E.g. some task is executed on several hosts (variable number) and there is document in ES that tells on which host runs what part of the task. I want a dashboard that will query ES and then generate link for each host that is in that document.

I already have scripted dashboard that does exactly what I want, but I have there hardwired ES host name. This piece of information is in config.js, but I cant access it in my dashboard.js file. I searched the codes and found that the relevant evaluation of the scripted dashboard is the following:

var _f = new Function('ARGS','kbn','_','moment','window','document','angular','require','define','$','jQuery',response);
return _f($routeParams,kbn,_,moment);

None of the passed arguments will give access to config. Having at least angular will allow to access it... Any chance having such option in the future?

Hey @martinhynar, I'm going to close this since this doesn't really apply to the new version of Kibana. Thanks!
