# Parse the new lines appended to a file
[[inputs.tail]]
## File names or a pattern to tail.
## These accept standard unix glob matching rules, but with the addition of
## ** as a "super asterisk". ie:
## "/var/log/**.log" -> recursively find all .log files in /var/log
## "/var/log/*/*.log" -> find all .log files with a parent dir in /var/log
## "/var/log/apache.log" -> just tail the apache log file
## "/var/log/log[!1-2]* -> tail files without 1-2
## "/var/log/log[^1-2]* -> identical behavior as above
## See https://github.com/gobwas/glob for more examples
##
files = ["/var/mymetrics.out"]
## Offset to start reading at
## The following methods are available:
## beginning -- start reading from the beginning of the file ignoring any persisted offset
## end -- start reading from the end of the file ignoring any persisted offset
## saved-or-beginning -- use the persisted offset of the file or, if no offset persisted, start from the beginning of the file
## saved-or-end -- use the persisted offset of the file or, if no offset persisted, start from the end of the file
# initial_read_offset = "saved-or-end"
## Whether file is a named pipe
# pipe = false
## Method used to watch for file updates. Can be either "inotify" or "poll".
## inotify is supported on linux, *bsd, and macOS, while Windows requires
## using poll. Poll checks for changes every 250ms.
# watch_method = "inotify"
## Maximum lines of the file to process that have not yet be written by the
## output. For best throughput set based on the number of metrics on each
## line and the size of the output's metric_batch_size.
# max_undelivered_lines = 1000
## Character encoding to use when interpreting the file contents. Invalid
## characters are replaced using the unicode replacement character. When set
## to the empty string the data is not decoded to text.
## ex: character_encoding = "utf-8"
## character_encoding = "utf-16le"
## character_encoding = "utf-16be"
## character_encoding = ""
# character_encoding = ""
## Data format to consume.
## 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_INPUT.md
data_format = "influx"
## Set the tag that will contain the path of the tailed file. If you don't want this tag, set it to an empty string.
# path_tag = "path"
## Filters to apply to files before generating metrics
## "ansi_color" removes ANSI colors
# filters = []
## multiline parser/codec
## https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/2.4/plugins-filters-multiline.html
#[inputs.tail.multiline]
## The pattern should be a regexp which matches what you believe to be an indicator that the field is part of an event consisting of multiple lines of log data.
#pattern = "^\s"
## The field's value must be previous or next and indicates the relation to the
## multi-line event.
#match_which_line = "previous"
## The invert_match can be true or false (defaults to false).
## If true, a message not matching the pattern will constitute a match of the multiline filter and the what will be applied. (vice-versa is also true)
#invert_match = false
## The handling method for quoted text (defaults to 'ignore').
## The following methods are available:
## ignore -- do not consider quotation (default)
## single-quotes -- consider text quoted by single quotes (')
## double-quotes -- consider text quoted by double quotes (")
## backticks -- consider text quoted by backticks (`)
## When handling quotes, escaped quotes (e.g. \") are handled correctly.
#quotation = "ignore"
## The preserve_newline option can be true or false (defaults to false).
## If true, the newline character is preserved for multiline elements,
## this is useful to preserve message-structure e.g. for logging outputs.
#preserve_newline = false
#After the specified timeout, this plugin sends the multiline event even if no new pattern is found to start a new event. The default is 5s.
#timeout = 5s
