Config Input
Provide a config JSON bag with defaults for downstream modules.
Collects a small form of values from a viewer and emits them as run parameters.
This is where {{params.*}} comes from: fields are rendered as the config widget and what comes out of config wires into the params port of the four modules that have one — DataOperations, Filter, Compute and ConnectorRead. defaults fill in anything the viewer leaves alone.

Parameters
fields
object[] · required · defaults to []
The form fields a viewer fills in. Each has an id, which becomes its key in the emitted config, a type deciding how it is rendered, and the options that type needs.
defaults
Record<string, unknown> · required · defaults to {}
Values for the fields a viewer leaves alone.
timeColumn
string | null · optional
The field naming a time column, for the views that need one.
Inputs
on
event
no
Implicit on every module that does not itself start a flow: wire an event here to make this module the start of what that event runs.
Outputs
config
json
json, scalar, signal
The field values, as one JSON object keyed by field id.
