this will now be the default config file location on windows, basically
it is the windows equivalent of /etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf

closes#1543
Updated windows dependencies
Updated the windows dependencies so that the versions matched the
dependencies for Mac OS and Linux. Additionally added some that were
complained about being missing at compile time.
Incorporated kardianos/service for management
Incorporated the library github.com/kardianos/service to manage the
service on the various platforms (including Windows). This required an
alternate main function.
The original main function was renamed to reloadLoop (as that is what
the main loop in it does) (it also got a couple of parameters). The
service management library calls it as the main body of the program.
Merged service.go into telegraf.go
Due to compilation issues on Windows, moved the code from service.go
into telegraf.go and removed service.go entirely.
Updated dependencies and fixed Windows service
Updated the dependencies so that it builds properly on Windows,
additionally, fixed the registered command for starting it as
a service (needed to add the config file option). This currently
standardizes it as a C:\telegraf\telegraf.conf on Windows.
Added dependency for github.com/kardianos/service
Removed the common dependencies from _windows file
Removed all the common dependencies from the Godeps_windows file and
modified Makefile to load Godeps and then Godeps_windows when building
for Windows. This should reduce problems caused by the Godeps_windows
file being forgotten when updating dependencies.
Updated CHANGELOG.md with changes
Ran `go fmt ./...` to format code
Removed service library on all but Windows
The service library [kardianos/service](github.com/kardianos/service)
has been disabled on all platforms but windows, as there is already
existing infrastructure for other platforms.
Removed the dependency line for itself
It appears that gdm accidentally added the project itself to the
dependency list. This caused the dependency restoration to select an
earlier version of the project during build.
This only affected windows.
This only affected builds after 020b2c70
Updated documentation for Windows Service
Removed the documentation about using NSSM and added documentation on
installing telegraf directly as a Windows Service.
Added license info for kardianos/service
Added the license information for github.com/kardianos/service which is
licensed under the ZLib license, although that name is never mentioned
the license text matches word for word.
Changed the Windows Config file default location
Updated the default location of the configuration file on Windows from
C:\telegraf\telegraf.conf to C:\Program Files\Telegraf\telegraf.conf.
With this change includes updating the directions, including directing
that the executable be put into that same directory. Additionally, as
noted in the instructions, the location of the config file for the
service may be changed by specifying the location with the `-config`
flag at install time.
Fixed bug - Wrong data type: svcConfig
svcConfig service.Config => svcConfig *service.Config
(It needed to be a pointer)
this log format is likely soon going to be removed from a future
influxdb release, so we should not be recommending that users base any
of their log parsing infra on this.
* Ping for windows
* En ping output
* Code format
* Code review
* Default timeout
* Fix problem with std error when no data received ( exit status = 1 )
1. in prometheus client, do not check for invalid characters anymore,
because we are already replacing all invalid characters with regex
anyways.
2. in win_perf_counters, sanitize field name _and_ measurement name.
Also add '%' to the list of sanitized characters, because this character
is invalid for most output plugins, and can also easily cause string
formatting issues throughout the stack.
3. All '%' will now be translated to 'Percent'

Do no try to guess HAproxy stats url, just add ";csv" at the end of the
url if not present.

* add initial support to allow self-signed certs
When using self-signed the metrics collection will fail, this will allow
the user to specify in the input configuration file if they want to skip
certificate verification. This is functionally identical to `curl -k`
At some point this functionality should be moved to the agent as it is
already implemented identically in several different input plugins.
* Add initial comment strings to remove noise
These should be properly fleshed out at some point to ensure
code completeness
* refactor to use generic helper function
* fix import statement against fork
* update changelog
closes#1436
This also fixes the bad behavior of waiting until runtime to return log
parsing pattern compile errors when a pattern was simply unfound.
closes#1418
Also protect against user error when the telegraf user does not have
permission to open the provided file. We will now error and exit in this
case, rather than silently waiting to get permission to open it.
