[collectd] Question about curl plugin and regexps

[Martin B. Smith]

Howdy there folks,

I have the following text/plain output from a CGI script:

active_users_count|3|3|
active_users_5mins|0|0|
active_users_30mins|1|1|
active_users_60mins|1|1|

I'm configuring the curl plugin to read them:

LoadPlugin curl
<Plugin curl>
<Page "my_users">
  URL "http://localhost/cgi-script";
  <Match>
    Regex "active_users_count\|([0-9]+)"
    DSType "GaugeLast"
    Type "my_users"
    Instance "active_users_count"
  </Match>
</Page>
</Plugin>

In types.db, I've got:
my_users value:GAUGE:0:65535



I've tried to match on "^active_users_count\|([0-9]+)$" too.

Thanks in advance,

Am I misunderstanding the amount of escaping I need to do for a vertical pipe in my configuration? Is the Regex match supposed to be multiline?
