Types

type Config

type Config struct {
	// Dataformat can be one of the serializer types listed in NewSerializer.
	DataFormat string `toml:"data_format"`

	// Carbon2 metric format.
	Carbon2Format string `toml:"carbon2_format"`

	// Support tags in graphite protocol
	GraphiteTagSupport bool `toml:"graphite_tag_support"`

	// Character for separating metric name and field for Graphite tags
	GraphiteSeparator string `toml:"graphite_separator"`

	// Maximum line length in bytes; influx format only
	InfluxMaxLineBytes int `toml:"influx_max_line_bytes"`

	// Sort field keys, set to true only when debugging as it less performant
	// than unsorted fields; influx format only
	InfluxSortFields bool `toml:"influx_sort_fields"`

	// Support unsigned integer output; influx format only
	InfluxUintSupport bool `toml:"influx_uint_support"`

	// Prefix to add to all measurements, only supports Graphite
	Prefix string `toml:"prefix"`

	// Template for converting telegraf metrics into Graphite
	// only supports Graphite
	Template string `toml:"template"`

	// Templates same Template, but multiple
	Templates []string `toml:"templates"`

	// Timestamp units to use for JSON formatted output
	TimestampUnits time.Duration `toml:"timestamp_units"`

	// Include HEC routing fields for splunkmetric output
	HecRouting bool `toml:"hec_routing"`

	SplunkmetricMultiMetric bool `toml:"splunkmetric_multi_metric"`

	// Point tags to use as the source name for Wavefront (if none found, host will be used).
	WavefrontSourceOverride []string `toml:"wavefront_source_override"`

	// Use Strict rules to sanitize metric and tag names from invalid characters for Wavefront
	// When enabled forward slash (/) and comma (,) will be accepted
	WavefrontUseStrict bool `toml:"wavefront_use_strict"`

	// Include the metric timestamp on each sample.
	PrometheusExportTimestamp bool `toml:"prometheus_export_timestamp"`

	// Sort prometheus metric families and metric samples.  Useful for

	// Output string fields as metric labels; when false string fields are
	// discarded.
	PrometheusStringAsLabel bool `toml:"prometheus_string_as_label"`
}

Config is a struct that covers the data types needed for all serializer types, and can be used to instantiate _any_ of the serializers.

type Serializer

type Serializer interface {
	// Serialize takes a single telegraf metric and turns it into a byte buffer.
	// separate metrics should be separated by a newline, and there should be
	// a newline at the end of the buffer.
	//
	// New plugins should use SerializeBatch instead to allow for non-line
	// delimited metrics.
	Serialize(metric telegraf.Metric) ([]byte, error)

	// SerializeBatch takes an array of telegraf metric and serializes it into
	// a byte buffer.  This method is not required to be suitable for use with
	// line oriented framing.
	SerializeBatch(metrics []telegraf.Metric) ([]byte, error)
}

Serializer is an interface defining functions that a serializer plugin must satisfy.

Implementations of this interface should be reentrant but are not required to be thread-safe.

func NewCarbon2Serializer

func NewCarbon2Serializer(carbon2format string) (Serializer, error)

func NewGraphiteSerializer

func NewGraphiteSerializer(prefix, template string, tag_support bool, separator string, templates []string) (Serializer, error)

func NewInfluxSerializer

func NewInfluxSerializer() (Serializer, error)

func NewInfluxSerializerConfig

func NewInfluxSerializerConfig(config *Config) (Serializer, error)

func NewJsonSerializer

func NewJsonSerializer(timestampUnits time.Duration) (Serializer, error)

func NewNowSerializer

func NewNowSerializer() (Serializer, error)

func NewPrometheusSerializer

func NewPrometheusSerializer(config *Config) (Serializer, error)

func NewSerializer

func NewSerializer(config *Config) (Serializer, error)

NewSerializer a Serializer interface based on the given config.

func NewSplunkmetricSerializer

func NewSplunkmetricSerializer(splunkmetric_hec_routing bool, splunkmetric_multimetric bool) (Serializer, error)

func NewWavefrontSerializer

func NewWavefrontSerializer(prefix string, useStrict bool, sourceOverride []string) (Serializer, error)

type SerializerOutput

type SerializerOutput interface {
	// SetSerializer sets the serializer function for the interface.
	SetSerializer(serializer Serializer)
}

SerializerOutput is an interface for output plugins that are able to serialize telegraf metrics into arbitrary data formats.
