this is for supporting external plugins.
external plugins will depend on a few telegraf interface types, as well
as a common telegraf registry.
this will allow external and internal plugins to both share this package
and make it easier to vendor/version the whole thing semantically, which
will make it easier to keep plugins supported across build and telegraf
versions.
see #1717
main reasons behind this:
- make adding/removing tags cheap
- make adding/removing fields cheap
- make parsing cheaper
- make parse -> decorate -> write out bytes metric flow much faster
Refactor serializer to use byte buffer
in this commit:
- chunks out the http request body to avoid making very large
allocations.
- establishes a limit for the maximum http request body size that the
listener will accept.
- utilizes a pool of byte buffers to reduce GC pressure.
in this commit:
- centralize logging output handler.
- set global Info/Debug/Error log levels based on config file or flags.
- remove per-plugin debug arg handling.
- add a I!, D!, or E! to every log message.
- add configuration option to specify where to send logs.

started working on this with the idea of fixing #1623, although I
realized that this was actually just a documentation issue around
a toml eccentricity.

this will now be the default config file location on windows, basically
it is the windows equivalent of /etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf
also updating the changelog
closes#1543
* Allow for TLS connections to ElasticSearch
Extremely similar implementation to the HTTP JSON module's
implementation of the same code.
* Changelog update
Adding precision rounding to the accumulator. This means that now every
input metric will get rounded at collection, rather than at write (and
only for the influxdb output).
This feature is disabled for service inputs, because service inputs
should be in control of their own timestamps & precisions.
use a common function between collection_jitter and flush_jitter. which
creates the same behavior between the two options.
going forward, both jitters will be random sleeps that get re-evaluated
at runtime for every interval (previously only collection_jitter did
this)
also fixes behavior so that both jitters will exit in the event of a
process exit.
closes#1296
* Use shared AWS credential configuration.
* Cloudwatch dimension wilcards
* Allow configuring cache_ttl for cloudwatch metrics.
* Allow for wildcard in dimension values to select all available metrics.
* Use internal.Duration for CacheTTL and go fmt
* Refactor to not use embedded structs for config.
* Update AWS plugin READMEs with credentials details, update Changelog.
* Fix changelog after rebasing to master and 0.13.1 release.
* Fix changelog after rebase.
Also changing the net_response and http_response plugins to only accept
duration strings for their timeout parameters. This is a breaking config
file change.
closes#1214
First is to write an internal CombinedOutput and Run function with a
timeout.
Second, the following instances of command runners need to have timeouts:
plugins/inputs/ping/ping.go
125: out, err := c.CombinedOutput()
plugins/inputs/exec/exec.go
91: if err := cmd.Run(); err != nil {
plugins/inputs/ipmi_sensor/command.go
31: err := cmd.Run()
plugins/inputs/sysstat/sysstat.go
194: out, err := cmd.CombinedOutput()
plugins/inputs/leofs/leofs.go
185: defer cmd.Wait()
plugins/inputs/sysstat/sysstat.go
282: if err := cmd.Wait(); err != nil {
