Fluent codec plugin

For questions about the plugin, open a topic in the Discuss forums. For bugs or feature requests, open an issue in Github. For the list of Elastic supported plugins, please consult the Elastic Support Matrix.

This codec handles fluentd’s msgpack schema.

For example, you can receive logs from fluent-logger-ruby with:

    input {
      tcp {
        codec => fluent
        port => 4000
      }
    }

And from your ruby code in your own application:

    logger = Fluent::Logger::FluentLogger.new(nil, :host => "example.log", :port => 4000)
    logger.post("some_tag", { "your" => "data", "here" => "yay!" })
