We don't currently have a generic JSON decoder. Mainly this is b/c generic JSON doesn't map directly to Heka message fields, so generally we encourage folks to spend a few minutes actually thinking about how they'd like their JSON input to be mapped to the Heka message structure.
It would be possible, and is probably a good idea, however, to write one that does this for you automatically. It would have to recurse through the JSON structure, collapsing it into a flat structure that can be represented by Heka message fields. I've opened an issue for it: https://github.com/mozilla-services/heka/issues/1651 -r On 07/31/2015 08:51 AM, Timur Batyrshin wrote:
I've seen that. By "this module" I'm referring to encoder/decoder.

I’ve also already found 2-3 implementations of thirdparty encoders/decoders. I’m just wondering now if this commonly used module should be in stock heka. The cjson Lua library is available in Lua sandboxes out of the box, among with many other libraries [1].

Github issues say that there was a Go-based one but then it was replaced by cjson. Is there a sandbox encoder/decoder for JSON or the way to use cjson without writing lua? Writing the plugin looks easy but I’d like to avoid that while I’m still evaluating heka.
