Yup, would be happy to move to Hingsight someday. LogstreamerInput is a biggie. I imagine that will be difficult to re-implement in lua due to the complexity mentioned here: https://mail.mozilla.org/pipermail/heka/2015-November/000882.html
KafkaInput, HttpInput, HttpListenInput, ProcessInput, FilePollingInput and StatsdInput are all required for our different use cases. Not sure how difficult it would be to emulate all those in Hindsight/Lua sandbox. My Lua/C skills are even worse than my Go ones. :P I know that progress is being made and I see quite a few new contributions here: https://github.com/mozilla-services/lua_sandbox_extensions Will definitely continue to monitor/evaluate Hindsight but for now at least, Heka is still seemingly the only thing that meets our requirements. Updated: https://github.com/mozilla-services/heka/wiki/Community-Plugins With some stuff.
