Fluentd has 6 types of plugins: , , , , and . This article gives an overview of Parser Plugin.

Overview

Sometimes, the format parameter for input plugins (ex: , , and ) cannot parse the user's custom data format (for example, a context-dependent grammar that can't be parsed with a regular expression). To address such cases. Fluentd has a pluggable system that enables the user to create their own parser formats.

How To Use

  • Write a custom format plugin. .

  • From any input plugin that supports the "format" field, call the

    custom plugin by its name.

Here is a simple example to read Nginx access logs using in_tail and parser_nginx:

<source>
  @type tail
  path /path/to/input/file
  format nginx
  keep_time_key true
</source>
