Cloud Foundry input

Use the cloudfoundry input to get http access logs, container logs and error logs from Cloud Foundry. Connects to the Cloud Foundry loggregator to receive events.

Example configurations:

filebeat.inputs:
- type: cloudfoundry
  api_address: https://api.dev.cfdev.sh
  client_id: uaa-filebeat
  client_secret: verysecret
  shard_id: filebeat
  ssl:
      verification_mode: none

filebeat.inputs:
- type: cloudfoundry
  api_address: https://api.dev.cfdev.sh
  client_id: uaa-filebeat
  client_secret: verysecret
  shard_id: filebeat
  ssl.certificate_authorities: ["/etc/pki/cf/ca.pem"]
  ssl.certificate: "/etc/pki/cf/cert.pem"
  ssl.key: "/etc/pki/cf/cert.key"

Configuration options

edit

The cloudfoundry input supports the following configuration options plus the Common options described later.

`api_address`

edit

The URL of the Cloud Foundry API. Optional. Default: "http://api.bosh-lite.com".

`doppler_address`

edit

The URL of the Cloud Foundry Doppler Websocket. Optional. Default: "(value from ${api_address}/v2/info)".

`uaa_address`

edit

The URL of the Cloud Foundry UAA API. Optional. Default: "(value from ${api_address}/v2/info)".

`rlp_address`

edit

The URL of the Cloud Foundry RLP Gateway. Optional. Default: "(log-stream subdomain under the same domain as api_server)".

`client_id`

edit

Client ID to authenticate with Cloud Foundry. Default: "".

`client_secret`

edit

Client Secret to authenticate with Cloud Foundry. Default: "".

`shard_id`

edit

Shard ID for the connection with Cloud Foundry. Use the same ID across multiple filebeat to shard the load of events. Default: "(generated UUID)".

`version`

edit

Consumer API version to connect with Cloud Foundry to collect events. Use v1 to collect events using Doppler/Traffic Control. Use v2 to collect events from the RLP Gateway. Default: "v1".

`ssl`

edit

This specifies SSL/TLS common config. Default: not used.

Common options

edit

The following configuration options are supported by all inputs.

`enabled`

edit

Use the enabled option to enable and disable inputs. By default, enabled is set to true.

`tags`

edit

A list of tags that Filebeat includes in the tags field of each published event. Tags make it easy to select specific events in Kibana or apply conditional filtering in Logstash. These tags will be appended to the list of tags specified in the general configuration.

Example:

filebeat.inputs:
- type: cloudfoundry
  . . .
  tags: ["json"]

`fields`

edit

Optional fields that you can specify to add additional information to the output. For example, you might add fields that you can use for filtering log data. Fields can be scalar values, arrays, dictionaries, or any nested combination of these. By default, the fields that you specify here will be grouped under a fields sub-dictionary in the output document. To store the custom fields as top-level fields, set the fields_under_root option to true. If a duplicate field is declared in the general configuration, then its value will be overwritten by the value declared here.

filebeat.inputs:
- type: cloudfoundry
  . . .
  fields:
    app_id: query_engine_12

`fields_under_root`

edit

If this option is set to true, the custom fields are stored as top-level fields in the output document instead of being grouped under a fields sub-dictionary. If the custom field names conflict with other field names added by Filebeat, then the custom fields overwrite the other fields.

`processors`

edit

A list of processors to apply to the input data.

See Processors for information about specifying processors in your config.

`pipeline`

edit

The ingest pipeline ID to set for the events generated by this input.

The pipeline ID can also be configured in the Elasticsearch output, but this option usually results in simpler configuration files. If the pipeline is configured both in the input and output, the option from the input is used.

`keep_null`

edit

If this option is set to true, fields with null values will be published in the output document. By default, keep_null is set to false.

`index`

edit

If present, this formatted string overrides the index for events from this input (for elasticsearch outputs), or sets the raw_index field of the event’s metadata (for other outputs). This string can only refer to the agent name and version and the event timestamp; for access to dynamic fields, use output.elasticsearch.index or a processor.

Example value: "%{[agent.name]}-myindex-%{+yyyy.MM.dd}" might expand to "filebeat-myindex-2019.11.01".

`publisher_pipeline.disable_host`

edit

By default, all events contain host.name. This option can be set to true to disable the addition of this field to all events. The default value is false.
