normal
normal/fast
1.7.0
The parser type used to parse the log line.
normal uses Ruby's
​CSV.parse_line​
method.
fast uses its own lightweight implementation. This parser is several times
faster than normal but it supports only typical patterns.
Supported CSV formats by fast:
# non-quoted
value1,value2,value3,value4,value5
​
# quoted
"value1","val,ue2","va,lu,e3","val ue4",""
​
# escaped
"message","mes""sage","""message""",,""""""
​
# mixed
message,"mes,sage","me,ssa,ge",mess age,""
If your CSV format is not matched with the above patterns, use normal parser instead.
Example
With this configuration:
<parse>
  @type csv
  keys time,host,req_id,user
  time_key time
</parse>
This incoming event:
2013/02/28 12:00:00,192.168.0.1,111,-
is parsed as:
time:
1362020400 (2013/02/28/ 12:00:00)
​
record:
{
  "host"   : "192.168.0.1",
  "req_id" : "111",
  "user"   : "-"
}
If you set null_value_pattern '-' in the configuration, user field becomes nil instead of "-".
