this basically reverts #887
at some point we might want to do some special handling of reloading
plugins and keeping their state intact, but that will need to be done at
a higher level, and in a way that is thread-safe for multiple input
plugins of the same type.
Unfortunately this is a rather large feature that will not have a quick
fix available for it.
fixes#1975fixes#2102
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.
closes#1786
The default is 0 so we hit a division by 0 error and crash. This checks
ensure we will not crash and `log` and continue to let telegraf run
Also we set default allow pending message number to 10000
this includes:
- Add Accumulator to the Start() function of service inputs
- For message consumer plugins, use the Accumulator to constantly add
metrics and make Gather a dummy function
- rework unit tests to match this new behavior.
- make "flush_buffer_when_full" a config option that defaults to true
closes#666
This constitutes a large change in how we will parse different data
formats going forward (for the plugins that support it)
This is working off @henrypfhu's changes.
This will basically make the root directory a place for storing the
major telegraf interfaces, which will make telegraf's godoc looks quite
a bit nicer. And make it easier for contributors to lookup the few data
types that they actually care about.
closes#564
Also modifying the internal UDP listener/parser code to make it able to
handle higher load. The udp listener will no longer do any parsing or
string conversion. It will simply read UDP packets as bytes and put them
into a channel. The parser thread will now deal with splitting the UDP
metrics into separated strings.
This could probably be made even better by leaving everything as byte
arrays.
