----------------------------------
Summary: Update GROK to 0.1.3 to support conversion in grok
patterns
Key: METRON-583
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-583
Project: Metron
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Otto Fowler
Assignee: Otto Fowler
Some users are having problems when passing in strings that are parsable as
integer types such as "0003222".
In this case they want the string "0003222" not 3222.
The grok pattern language supports type specifications in 0.1.3 which allow you
to specify in the pattern that you want it as a string explicitly, such as
%{USERNAME:namefield;string}
Metron should update to this version and gain that support.
0.1.3 is _not_ the latest version, however, but should be close enough to
hopefully not have any regressions
