CrateDB Output Plugin
This plugin writes to CrateDB via its PostgreSQL
protocol.
Table Schema
The plugin requires a table with the following schema.
CREATE TABLE my_metrics (
"hash_id" LONG INDEX OFF,
"timestamp" TIMESTAMP,
"name" STRING,
"tags" OBJECT(DYNAMIC),
"fields" OBJECT(DYNAMIC),
PRIMARY KEY ("timestamp", "hash_id","day")
) PARTITIONED BY("day");
The plugin can create this table for you automatically via the table_create
config option, see below.
Global configuration options
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 for more details.
