# NSQ Consumer Input Plugin
The [NSQ](http://nsq.io/) consumer plugin polls a specified NSQD
topic and adds messages to InfluxDB. This plugin allows a message to be in any of the supported `data_format` types.
## Configuration
```toml
# Read metrics from NSQD topic(s)
[[inputs.nsq_consumer]]
## Server option still works but is deprecated, we just prepend it to the nsqd array.
# server = "localhost:4150"
## An array representing the NSQD TCP HTTP Endpoints
nsqd = ["localhost:4150"]
## An array representing the NSQLookupd HTTP Endpoints
nsqlookupd = ["localhost:4161"]
topic = "telegraf"
channel = "consumer"
max_in_flight = 100
## Data format to consume.

## Each data format has its own unique set of configuration options, read
## more about them here:
## https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/docs/DATA_FORMATS_INPUT.md
data_format = "influx"
```
## Testing
The `nsq_consumer_test` mocks out the interaction with `NSQD`. It requires no outside dependencies.
