Hi Tariq, It is possible, in fact we had two prototypes doing exactly that, it has been quite some time so trying to re-collect from memory.
You have to write a custom source extending from base source classes of flume. Depending upon your requirements you can either data an in memory queue that the http sevice handler will write to. The custom source will pick it from memory and provide it to flume to carry foward. Another easier approach is the http handler writes to a log file and you can use flume's built-in utilities to move the data you have in files. -- Regards, Praveen Ramachandra ________________________________ From: Mohammad Tariq <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, November 23, 2011 2:04 AM Subject: Collecting data coming over HTTP Hello list, I would like to know whether it is possible to collect data coming from a server over http using Flume or not????If yes, what should be the appropriate approach???
