Yunkai Zhang updated TS-2364:
-----------------------------
Description:
Now, we have two kind of field syntax in log format:
{code}
(1) simple; example %<cqu>
(2) container field, which is a field within a container (such as an http
header or an Inktomi stat). Fields of this type have the syntax:
'%<{field}container>'. See documentation for valid container names.
{code}
I'm going to introduce slice notation, so that we can easy to limit the length
of filed's output. With slice notation, the filed syntax will looks like:
{code}
'%<{field}container[start:end]>'
{code}
But with one limitation: slice notation makes sense only when the container is
string type.
We can see the syntax of slice notation from Python, Golang, it's pretty simple:
{code}
a[start:end] # items start through end-1
a[start:] # items start through the rest of the array
a[:end] # items from the beginning through end-1
a[:] # the whole array(*by default*)
{code}
For example, '%<cqh[0:30]>' means the first 30 characters of <cqh>.
