Hi,
I’ve got a question about decoding of Heka messages.
Suppose the following call:
msg = decode_message(read_message("raw"))
Here msg.Fields will hold a table of values like the following:
{
“name”: “foobar”,
“type”: “string”,
“value”: 123
}
What is very much unclear to me is why some of the fields here are produced not
as plain values but as a table holding a single value, like
{
“name”: “foobar”,
“value”: [123]
}
This way I need every time to check for if the value is an array or not, an
example from yourselves:
https://github.com/mozilla-services/heka/blob/versions/0.10/sandbox/lua/modules/ts_line_protocol.lua#L161-L162
When does this condition occur?
Thanks,
Timur_______________________________________________
