Hi, all! I'm finally done with my Lua decoder and thought I would post a link to it here, both for any constructive criticism anyone might have and for helping out anyone who was in the same situation I was in. Here's the link:
https://gist.github.com/hourback/56e93786df14a17b14da This was basically born out of the need to parse fractional seconds in the WebSphere systemout.log files. Go's time package doesn't recognize separators that aren't periods. (There's an open issue for adding support for commas, at least.) So I was unable to use PayloadRegexDecoder; I saw no way to do it other than writing a Lua decoder or a Go decoder. I'm sure it could have been prettier! Also, I had to remove the timestamp from the fields table in Lua because it seemed to cause Elasticsearch to run out of heap. I'm just starting out with Kibana and Elasticsearch, so this might have been more apparent to someone with more experience, but I found it to be difficult to troubleshoot. -Ali
