  ## NOTE: process and each argument should each be their own string
  command = ["my-telegraf-output", "--some-flag", "value"]

  ## Delay before the process is restarted after an unexpected termination
  restart_delay = "10s"

  ## Data format to export.
  ## 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
