Add New Ports to Packetbeat dynamically

Elastic Stack Beats
1

Currently I have packetbeat http port configuration as below:
ports: [80, 8080, 8585]
My requirement is to update the the list of port dynamically.

Currently I'm doing the same by Updating the conf file packetbeat.yml each time by adding new ports to be considered and restarting the packetbeat.

Is there is any easier way of doing the same.

Currently there's no easier way. We are considering implementing configuration reload, but it's not on the short term roadmap.

Thanks for the confirmation.
