Hi,

Hi back!

We are just evaluating Heka for use as our log and metrics aggregation
system.

Great! Hope you like what you find.

We would like to archive our logs in S3 so it would be good if
Heka could also store batches directly into a bucket.

Is anyone working on a S3 output plugin for Heka? If not we might look
at starting to write one.

I'm not aware of anyone actively working on an S3 output at the moment, no. We have, however, built Cloudwatch plugins, both an input and an output:

https://github.com/mozilla-services/heka-mozsvc-plugins/blob/dev/cloudwatch.go

Those use the crowdmob fork of Canonical's goamz package to handle the details of interfacing w/ Amazon's API authentication framework. You should be able to use that code as a model to get something bootstrapped pretty easily.

Our Cloudwatch plugins aren't in the Heka core, they're in a separate repo we set up for plugins that we think would be less widely used. Ultimately we'll probably create a separate repo specifically for AWS related plugins, so the Cloudwatch, S3, and any other Amazon-related plugins that get developed could have a nice cozy home together.

Hope this helps!
