# JSON
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The `json` output data format converts metrics into JSON documents.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Configuration
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```toml
|
||
|
|
[[outputs.file]]
|
||
|
|
## Files to write to, "stdout" is a specially handled file.
|
||
|
|
files = ["stdout", "/tmp/metrics.out"]
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Data format to output.
|
||
|
|
## 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_OUTPUT.md
|
||
|
|
data_format = "json"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## The resolution to use for the metric timestamp. Must be a duration string
|
||
|
|
## such as "1ns", "1us", "1ms", "10ms", "1s". Durations are truncated to
|
||
|
|
## the power of 10 less than the specified units.
|
||
|
|
json_timestamp_units = "1s"
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Examples:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Standard form:
|
||
|
|
```json
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
|
"fields": {
|
||
|
|
"field_1": 30,
|
||
|
|
"field_2": 4,
|
||
|
|
"field_N": 59,
|
||
|
|
"n_images": 660
|
||
|
|
},
|
||
|
|
"name": "docker",
|
||
|
|
"tags": {
|
||
|
|
"host": "raynor"
|
||
|
|
},
|
||
|
|
"timestamp": 1458229140
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When an output plugin needs to emit multiple metrics at one time, it may use
|
||
|
|
the batch format. The use of batch format is determined by the plugin,
|
||
|
|
reference the documentation for the specific plugin.
|
||
|
|
```json
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
|
"metrics": [
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
