## `http` receiver
The `http` receiver can be used receive metrics through HTTP POST requests.
### Configuration structure
```json
{
"<name>": {
"type": "http",
"address" : "",
"port" : "8080",
"path" : "/write"
}
}
```
- `type`: makes the receiver a `http` receiver
- `address`: Listen address
- `port`: Listen port
- `path`: URL path for the write endpoint
The HTTP endpoint listens to `http://<address>:<port>/<path>`
