sample
The
in_sample input plugin generates sample events. It is useful for testing, debugging, benchmarking and getting started with Fluentd.It is included in Fluentd's core.
This plugin is the renamed version of
in_dummy.<source>
@type sample
sample {"hello":"world"}
tag sample
</source>
# If you use fluentd v1.11.1 or earlier, use following configuration
<source>
@type dummy
dummy {"hello":"world"}
tag dummy
</source>
The value must be
sample.If you use fluentd v1.11.1 or earlier, use
dummy.type | default | version |
string | Nothing | 0.14.0 |
The value is the tag assigned to the generated events.
type | default | version |
integer | 1 | 0.14.4 |
The number of events in the event stream of each emit.
type | default | version |
integer | 1 | 0.14.0 |
It configures how many events to generate per second.
type | default | version |
string | nil | 0.14.0 |
If specified, each generated event has an auto-incremented key field.
For example, with
auto_increment_key foo_key, the first couple of events look like:2014-12-14 23:23:38 +0000 test: {"message":"sample","foo_key":0}
2014-12-14 23:23:38 +0000 test: {"message":"sample","foo_key":1}
2014-12-14 23:23:38 +0000 test: {"message":"sample","foo_key":2}
type | default | version |
bool | false | 0.14.2 |
This parameter is removed since v1.10.0. This feature is automatically handled in the core.
type | default | version |
string | [{"message":"sample"}] | 0.14.0 |
The sample data to be generated. It should be either an array of JSON hashes or a single JSON hash. If it is an array of JSON hashes, the hashes in the array are cycled through in order.
If you use fluentd v1.11.1 or earlier, use
