Example Configuration
in_unix is included in Fluentd's core. No additional installation process is required.
<source>
  @type unix
  path /path/to/socket.sock
</source>
Please see the Config File article for the basic structure and syntax of the configuration file.
Parameters
type (required)
The value must be unix.
path (required)
The path to your Unix Domain Socket.
backlog
The backlog of Unix Domain Socket. The default is 1024.
log_level option
The log_level option allows the user to set different levels of logging for each plugin. The supported log levels are: fatal, error, warn, info, debug, and trace.
Please see the logging article for further details.
