# Remote File Output Plugin
|
|
|
|
This plugin writes metrics to files in a remote location using the
|
|
[rclone library][rclone]. Currently the following backends are supported:
|
|
|
|
- `local`: [Local filesystem](https://rclone.org/local/)
|
|
- `s3`: [Amazon S3 storage providers](https://rclone.org/s3/)
|
|
- `sftp`: [Secure File Transfer Protocol](https://rclone.org/sftp/)
|
|
|
|
⭐ Telegraf v1.32.0

|
## Global configuration options <!-- @/docs/includes/plugin_config.md -->
|
|
|
|
In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support
|
|
additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to
|
|
modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc.
|
|
See the [CONFIGURATION.md][CONFIGURATION.md] for more details.
|
|
|
|
[CONFIGURATION.md]: ../../../docs/CONFIGURATION.md#plugins
|
|
|
|
## Secret-store support
|
|
|
|
This plugin supports secrets from secret-stores for the `remote` option.
|
|
See the [secret-store documentation][SECRETSTORE] for more details on how
|
|
to use them.
|
|
|
|
[SECRETSTORE]: ../../../docs/CONFIGURATION.md#secret-store-secrets
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
```toml @sample.conf
|
|
# Send telegraf metrics to file(s) in a remote filesystem
|
|
[[outputs.remotefile]]
|
|
## Remote location according to https://rclone.org/#providers
|
|
## Check the backend configuration options and specify them in
|
|
## <backend type>[,<param1>=<value1>[,...,<paramN>=<valueN>]]:[root]
|
|
## for example:
|
|
## remote = 's3,provider=AWS,access_key_id=...,secret_access_key=...,session_token=...,region=us-east-1:mybucket'
|
|
## By default, remote is the local current directory
|
|
# remote = "local:"
|
|
|
|
## Files to write in the remote location
|
|
## Each file can be a Golang template for generating the filename from metrics.
|
|
## See https://pkg.go.dev/text/template for a reference and use the metric
|
|
## name (`{{.Name}}`), tag values (`{{.Tag "name"}}`), field values
|
|
## (`{{.Field "name"}}`) or the metric time (`{{.Time}}) to derive the
|
|
## filename.
|
|
## The 'files' setting may contain directories relative to the root path
|
|
## defined in 'remote'.
|
|
files = ['{{.Name}}-{{.Time.Format "2006-01-02"}}']
|
|
|
|
## Use batch serialization format instead of line based delimiting.
|
|
## The batch format allows for the production of non-line-based output formats
|
|
## and may more efficiently encode metrics.
|
|
# use_batch_format = false
|
|
|
|
## Cache settings
|
|
## Time to wait for all writes to complete on shutdown of the plugin.
|
|
# final_write_timeout = "10s"
|
|
|
|
## Time to wait between writing to a file and uploading to the remote location
|
|
# cache_write_back = "5s"
|
|
|
|
## Maximum size of the cache on disk (infinite by default)
|
|
# cache_max_size = -1
|
|
|
|
## Forget files after not being touched for longer than the given time
|
|
## This is useful to prevent memory leaks when using time-based filenames
|
|
## as it allows internal structures to be cleaned up.
|
|
## Note: When writing to a file after is has been forgotten, the file is
|
|
## treated as a new file which might cause file-headers to be appended
|
|
## again by certain serializers like CSV.
|
|
## By default files will be kept indefinitely.
|
|
# forget_files_after = "0s"
|
|
|
|
## 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 = "influx"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Available custom functions
|
|
|
|
The following functions can be used in the templates:
|
|
|
|
- `now`: returns the current time (example: `{{now.Format "2006-01-02"}}`)
|
