Feature Request: Change Connect Input Box to User Settable list of ElasticSearch Endpoints

[bcharboneauiherb]

I use the Chrome Extension and it would be nice to see an option for User Settable List of Endpoints to connect to populated in a Dropdown (SELECT->OPTION) List for the Connect Box instead of the INPUT box, for fast switching between Clusters/Endpoints.

The Image shows an example of what I mean. I was able to do it using DevTools in Chrome to modify it for that moment. THe Submit still works, but the SELECT will change back to INPUT once it loads the new cluster selected.

Give option in the Plugin Settings to set Endpoint Name and Endpoint URL to be added in as

<select class="uiClusterConnect-uri" name="cluster">
  <option value="https://prodcluster.example.com">ES-Prod</option>
  <option value="https://testcluster.example.com">ES-Test</option>
  <option value="http://kibana-test.example.com:9200">Kibana-Test</option>
</select>

Same Feature Request as I reported for the main elastic search head application:
Change Connect Input Box to User Settable list of ElasticSearch Endpoints #379

you can mimic this by creating a folder in your bookmark bar, and then adding URLs to the chrome plugin, with the parameter base_uri embedded

For instance, I tunnel a port through SSH to a remote ElasticSearch server, so I have a bookmark that is named 'prod-ES' with the URL of
chrome-extension://ffmkiejjmecolpfloofpjologoblkegm/elasticsearch-head/index.html?base_uri=http://localhost:29200

In the end you get a nice menu to pick from..

Excellent Thanks for the tip. I did not see that anywhere in the documentation. Perhaps it can be added to the README for the chrome extension?

Maybe I missed it on the original application.
