Hi Rob, I have a project to take a look at heka. I am new to heka. I got it installed and running a couple days ago. I am able to use heka to do some very simple log watching. Now I try (just to learn as an example) the following syntax in my config.toml and expect to see some data in stdout.
[MemStats] type = "FilePollingInput" ticker_interval = 5 file_path = "/proc/meminfo" decoder = "MemStatsDecoder" [MemStatsDecoder] type = "SandboxDecoder" filename = "lua_decoders/linux_memstats.lua" [PayloadEncoder] #append_newlines = false append_newlines = true # LogOutput plugin ouput to stdout [LogOutput] message_matcher = "TRUE" encoder = "PayloadEncoder" But when I run hakad with this, all I get is the date time every 5 seconds without any data, e.g.: 2015/08/26 18:37:04 2015/08/26 18:37:09 2015/08/26 18:37:14 2015/08/26 18:37:19 What am I doing wrong? My final goal is to use "Apache Access Log Decoder" to capture access.log and then use "ElasticSearch JSON Encoder" to send data to ElasticSearch (I know it is a long way to go for me!) Appreciate your help in advance. Thanks. Ming Ho
