# CloudEvents Serializer
|
||
|
|
||
|
The `cloudevents` data format outputs metrics as [CloudEvents][CloudEvents] in
|
||
|
[JSON format][JSON Spec]. Currently, versions v1.0 and v0.3 of the specification
|
||
|
are supported with the former being the default.
|
||
|
|
||
|
[CloudEvents]: https://cloudevents.io
|
||
|
[JSON Spec]: https://github.com/cloudevents/spec/blob/v1.0/json-format.md
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Configuration
|
||
|
|
||
|
```toml
|
||
|
[[outputs.file]]
|
||
|
## Files to write to, "stdout" is a specially handled file
|
||
|
files = ["stdout", "/tmp/metrics.out"]
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Data format to output
|
||
|
## Each data format has its own unique set of configuration options, read
|
||
|
## more about them here:
|
||
|
## https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/docs/DATA_FORMATS_OUTPUT.md
|
||
|
data_format = "cloudevents"
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Specification version to use for events
|
||
|
## Currently versions "0.3" and "1.0" are supported.
|
||
|
# cloudevents_version = "1.0"
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Event source specifier
|
||
|
## This allows to overwrite the source header-field with the given value.
|
||
|
# cloudevents_source = "telegraf"
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Tag to use as event source specifier
|
||
|
## This allows to overwrite the source header-field with the value of the
|
||
|
## specified tag. If both 'cloudevents_source' and 'cloudevents_source_tag'
|
||
|
## are set, the this setting will take precedence. In case the specified tag
|
||
|
## value does not exist for a metric, the serializer will fallback to
|
||
|
## 'cloudevents_source'.
|
||
|
# cloudevents_source_tag = ""
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Event-type specifier to overwrite the default value
|
||
|
## By default, events (and event batches) containing a single metric will
|
||
|
## set the event-type to 'com.influxdata.telegraf.metric' while events
|
||
|
## containing a batch of metrics will set the event-type to
|
||
|
## 'com.influxdata.telegraf.metric' (plural).
|
||
|
# cloudevents_event_type = ""
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Set time header of the event
|
||
|
## Supported values are:
|
||
|
## none -- do not set event time
|
||
|
## earliest -- use timestamp of the earliest metric
|
||
|
## latest -- use timestamp of the latest metric
|
||
|
## creation -- use timestamp of event creation
|
||
|
## For events containing only a single metric, earliest and latest are
|
||
|
## equivalent.
|
||
|
# cloudevents_event_time = "latest"
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Batch format of the output when running in batch mode
|
||
|
## If set to 'events' the resulting output will contain a list of events,
|
||
|
## each with a single metric according to the JSON Batch Format of the
|
||
|
## specification. Use 'application/cloudevents-batch+json' for this format.
|
||
|
##
|
||
|
## When set to 'metrics', a single event will be generated containing a list
|
||
|
## of metrics as payload. Use 'application/cloudevents+json' for this format.
|
||
|
# cloudevents_batch_format = "events"
|
||
|
```
