+## v1.3 [2017-05-15]
+
+### Release Notes
+
+- Users of the windows `ping` plugin will need to drop or migrate their
+measurements in order to continue using the plugin. The reason for this is that
+the windows plugin was outputting a different type than the linux plugin. This
+made it impossible to use the `ping` plugin for both windows and linux
+machines.
+
+- Ceph: the `ceph_pgmap_state` metric content has been modified to use a unique field `count`, with each state expressed as a `state` tag.
+
+Telegraf < 1.3:
+
+```
+# field_name             value
+active+clean             123
+active+clean+scrubbing   3
+```
+
+Telegraf >= 1.3:
+
+```
+# field_name    value       tag
+count           123         state=active+clean
+count           3           state=active+clean+scrubbing
+```
+
+- The [Riemann output plugin](./plugins/outputs/riemann) has been rewritten
+and the previous riemann plugin is _incompatible_ with the new one. The reasons
+for this are outlined in issue [#1878](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/issues/1878).
+The previous riemann output will still be available using
+`outputs.riemann_legacy` if needed, but that will eventually be deprecated.
+It is highly recommended that all users migrate to the new riemann output plugin.
+
+- Generic [socket_listener](./plugins/inputs/socket_listener) and
+[socket_writer](./plugins/outputs/socket_writer) plugins have been implemented
+for receiving and sending UDP, TCP, unix, & unix-datagram data. These plugins
+will replace udp_listener and tcp_listener, which are still available but will
+be deprecated eventually.
+

+## v1.2.1 [2017-02-01]
+
+### Bugfixes
+
+- [#2317](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/issues/2317): Fix segfault on nil metrics with influxdb output.
+- [#2324](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/issues/2324): Fix negative number handling.
+
+### Features
+
+- [#2348](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/pull/2348): Go version 1.7.4 -> 1.7.5
+
+## v1.2 [2017-01-00]
+
+### Release Notes
+
+- The StatsD plugin will now default all "delete_" config options to "true". This
+will change te default behavior for users who were not specifying these parameters
+in their config file.
+
+- The StatsD plugin will also no longer save it's state on a service reload.
+Essentially we have reverted PR [#887](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/pull/887).
+The reason for this is that saving the state in a global variable is not
+thread-safe (see [#1975](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/issues/1975) & [#2102](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/issues/2102)),
+and this creates issues if users want to define multiple instances
+of the statsd plugin. Saving state on reload may be considered in the future,
+but this would need to be implemented at a higher level and applied to all
+plugins, not just statsd.

+## v1.1.0 [2016-11-07]
+
+### Release Notes
+
+- Telegraf now supports two new types of plugins: processors & aggregators.
+
+- On systemd Telegraf will no longer redirect it's stdout to /var/log/telegraf/telegraf.log.
+On most systems, the logs will be directed to the systemd journal and can be
+accessed by `journalctl -u telegraf.service`. Consult the systemd journal
+documentation for configuring journald. There is also a [`logfile` config option](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/etc/telegraf.conf#L70)
+available in 1.1, which will allow users to easily configure telegraf to
+continue sending logs to /var/log/telegraf/telegraf.log.

 ### Release Notes
 
 **Breaking Change** The SNMP plugin is being deprecated in it's current form.
 There is a [new SNMP plugin](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/tree/master/plugins/inputs/snmp)
 which fixes many of the issues and confusions
-of it's predecessor. For users wanting to continue to use the deprecated SNMP
+of its predecessor. For users wanting to continue to use the deprecated SNMP
 plugin, you will need to change your config file from `[[inputs.snmp]]` to
 `[[inputs.snmp_legacy]]`. The configuration of the new SNMP plugin is _not_
 backwards-compatible.

+* Processors should call `processors.Add` in their `init` function to register themselves.

+* To be available within Telegraf itself, plugins must add themselves to the
+`github.com/influxdata/telegraf/plugins/processors/all/all.go` file.

+processor can be configured. This is include in `telegraf -sample-config`.
+* The `Description` function should say in one line what this processor does.
+
+### Processor Example
+
+```go
+package printer
+
+// printer.go
+
+import (
+	"fmt"
+
+	"github.com/influxdata/telegraf"
+	"github.com/influxdata/telegraf/plugins/processors"

+func init() {
+	processors.Add("printer", func() telegraf.Processor {
+		return &Printer{}
+	})
+}
+```
+
+## Aggregator Plugins
+
+This section is for developers who want to create a new aggregator plugin.
+
+### Aggregator Plugin Guidelines
+
+* A aggregator must conform to the [`telegraf.Aggregator`](https://godoc.org/github.com/influxdata/telegraf#Aggregator) interface.
+* Aggregators should call `aggregators.Add` in their `init` function to register themselves.
+See below for a quick example.
+* To be available within Telegraf itself, plugins must add themselves to the
+`github.com/influxdata/telegraf/plugins/aggregators/all/all.go` file.
+* The `SampleConfig` function should return valid toml that describes how the
+aggregator can be configured. This is include in `telegraf -sample-config`.
+* The `Description` function should say in one line what this aggregator does.
+* The Aggregator plugin will need to keep caches of metrics that have passed
+through it. This should be done using the builtin `HashID()` function of each
+metric.
+* When the `Reset()` function is called, all caches should be cleared.
+
+### Aggregator Example
+
+```go
+package min

+// min.go

+  ## If true drop_original will drop the original metrics and
+  ## only send aggregates.
+  drop_original = false

-Telegraf is an agent written in Go for collecting metrics from the system it's
-running on, or from other services, and writing them into InfluxDB or other
-[outputs](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf#supported-output-plugins).
+Telegraf is an agent written in Go for collecting, processing, aggregating,
+and writing metrics.
 
 Design goals are to have a minimal memory footprint with a plugin system so
 that developers in the community can easily add support for collecting metrics
 from well known services (like Hadoop, Postgres, or Redis) and third party
 APIs (like Mailchimp, AWS CloudWatch, or Google Analytics).
 
-New input and output plugins are designed to be easy to contribute,
+Telegraf is plugin-driven and has the concept of 4 distinct plugins:
+
+1. [Input Plugins](#input-plugins) collect metrics from the system, services, or 3rd party APIs
+2. [Processor Plugins](#processor-plugins) transform, decorate, and/or filter metrics
+3. [Aggregator Plugins](#aggregator-plugins) create aggregate metrics (e.g. mean, min, max, quantiles, etc.)
+4. [Output Plugins](#output-plugins) write metrics to various destinations
+
+For more information on Processor and Aggregator plugins please [read this](./docs/AGGREGATORS_AND_PROCESSORS.md).
+
+New plugins are designed to be easy to contribute,
 we'll eagerly accept pull
 requests and will manage the set of plugins that Telegraf supports.

+
+Both Aggregators and Processors analyze metrics as they pass through Telegraf.
+
+**Processor** plugins process metrics as they pass through and immediately emit
+results based on the values they process. For example, this could be printing
+all metrics or adding a tag to all metrics that pass through.
+
+**Aggregator** plugins, on the other hand, are a bit more complicated. Aggregators
+are typically for emitting new _aggregate_ metrics, such as a running mean,
+minimum, maximum, quantiles, or standard deviation. For this reason, all _aggregator_
+plugins are configured with a `period`. The `period` is the size of the window
+of metrics that each _aggregate_ represents. In other words, the emitted
+_aggregate_ metric will be the aggregated value of the past `period` seconds.
+Since many users will only care about their aggregates and not every single metric
+gathered, there is also a `drop_original` argument, which tells Telegraf to only
+emit the aggregates and not the original metrics.
+
+**NOTE** That since aggregators only aggregate metrics within their period, that
+historical data is not supported. In other words, if your metric timestamp is more
+than `now() - period` in the past, it will not be aggregated. If this is a feature
+that you need, please comment on this [github issue](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/issues/1992)

 # Telegraf Configuration
 
-## Generating a Configuration File
-
-A default Telegraf config file can be generated using the -sample-config flag:
-
-```
-telegraf -sample-config > telegraf.conf
-```
-
-To generate a file with specific inputs and outputs, you can use the
--input-filter and -output-filter flags:
-
-```
-telegraf -sample-config -input-filter cpu:mem:net:swap -output-filter influxdb:kafka
-```
-
 You can see the latest config file with all available plugins here:
 [telegraf.conf](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/etc/telegraf.conf)
 
+## Generating a Configuration File

+To generate a file with specific inputs and outputs, you can use the
+--input-filter and --output-filter flags:
+
+```
+telegraf --input-filter cpu:mem:net:swap --output-filter influxdb:kafka config
+```
+
 ## Environment Variables
 
 Environment variables can be used anywhere in the config file, simply prepend
 them with $. For strings the variable must be within quotes (ie, "$STR_VAR"),
 for numbers and booleans they should be plain (ie, $INT_VAR, $BOOL_VAR)
 
-## `[global_tags]` Configuration
+## Configuration file locations
+
+The location of the configuration file can be set via the `--config` command
+line flag. Telegraf will also pick up all files matching the pattern `*.conf` if
+the `-config-directory` command line flag is used.
+
+On most systems, the default locations are `/etc/telegraf/telegraf.conf` for
+the main configuration file and `/etc/telegraf/telegraf.d` for the directory of
+configuration files.
+
+# Global Tags
 
 Global tags can be specified in the `[global_tags]` section of the config file
 in key="value" format. All metrics being gathered on this host will be tagged
 with the tags specified here.

 This is primarily to avoid
 large write spikes for users running a large number of telegraf instances.
 ie, a jitter of 5s and flush_interval 10s means flushes will happen every 10-15s.
+* **precision**: By default, precision will be set to the same timestamp order
+as the collection interval, with the maximum being 1s. Precision will NOT
+be used for service inputs, such as logparser and statsd. Valid values are
+"ns", "us" (or "µs"), "ms", "s".

+* **quiet**: Run telegraf in quiet mode (error messages only).
 * **hostname**: Override default hostname, if empty use os.Hostname().

-#### Measurement Filtering
-
-Filters can be configured per input or output, see below for examples.
-
-* **namepass**: An array of strings that is used to filter metrics generated by the
-current input. Each string in the array is tested as a glob match against
-measurement names and if it matches, the field is emitted.
-* **namedrop**: The inverse of pass, if a measurement name matches, it is not emitted.
-* **fieldpass**: An array of strings that is used to filter metrics generated by the
-current input. Each string in the array is tested as a glob match against field names
-and if it matches, the field is emitted. fieldpass is not available for outputs.
-* **fielddrop**: The inverse of pass, if a field name matches, it is not emitted.
-fielddrop is not available for outputs.
-* **tagpass**: tag names and arrays of strings that are used to filter
-measurements by the current input. Each string in the array is tested as a glob
-match against the tag name, and if it matches the measurement is emitted.
-* **tagdrop**: The inverse of tagpass. If a tag matches, the measurement is not
-emitted. This is tested on measurements that have passed the tagpass test.
-* **tagexclude**: tagexclude can be used to exclude a tag from measurement(s).
-As opposed to tagdrop, which will drop an entire measurement based on it's
-tags, tagexclude simply strips the given tag keys from the measurement. This
-can be used on inputs & outputs, but it is _recommended_ to be used on inputs,
-as it is more efficient to filter out tags at the ingestion point.
-* **taginclude**: taginclude is the inverse of tagexclude. It will only include
-the tag keys in the final measurement.
+* **omit_hostname**: If true, do no set the "host" tag in the telegraf agent.
 
 ## Input Configuration
 
-Some configuration options are configurable per input:
+The following config parameters are available for all inputs:
 
+* **interval**: How often to gather this metric. Normal plugins use a single
+global interval, but if one particular input should be run less or more often,
+you can configure that here.
 * **name_override**: Override the base name of the measurement.
 (Default is the name of the input).
 * **name_prefix**: Specifies a prefix to attach to the measurement name.
 * **name_suffix**: Specifies a suffix to attach to the measurement name.
 * **tags**: A map of tags to apply to a specific input's measurements.
-* **interval**: How often to gather this metric. Normal plugins use a single
-global interval, but if one particular input should be run less or more often,
-you can configure that here.
+
+## Output Configuration
+
+There are no generic configuration options available for all outputs.
+
+## Aggregator Configuration
+
+The following config parameters are available for all aggregators:
+
+* **period**: The period on which to flush & clear each aggregator. All metrics
+that are sent with timestamps outside of this period will be ignored by the
+aggregator.
+* **delay**: The delay before each aggregator is flushed. This is to control
+how long for aggregators to wait before receiving metrics from input plugins,
+in the case that aggregators are flushing and inputs are gathering on the
+same interval.
+* **drop_original**: If true, the original metric will be dropped by the
+aggregator and will not get sent to the output plugins.
+* **name_override**: Override the base name of the measurement.
+(Default is the name of the input).
+* **name_prefix**: Specifies a prefix to attach to the measurement name.
+* **name_suffix**: Specifies a suffix to attach to the measurement name.
+* **tags**: A map of tags to apply to a specific input's measurements.

+The following config parameters are available for all processors:
+
+* **order**: This is the order in which the processor(s) get executed. If this
+is not specified then processor execution order will be random.
+
+#### Measurement Filtering
+
+Filters can be configured per input, output, processor, or aggregator,
+see below for examples.
+
+* **namepass**:
+An array of glob pattern strings.  Only points whose measurement name matches
+a pattern in this list are emitted.
+* **namedrop**:
+The inverse of `namepass`.  If a match is found the point is discarded. This
+is tested on points after they have passed the `namepass` test.
+* **fieldpass**:
+An array of glob pattern strings.  Only fields whose field key matches a
+pattern in this list are emitted.  Not available for outputs.
+* **fielddrop**:
+The inverse of `fieldpass`. Fields with a field key matching one of the
+patterns will be discarded from the point.  Not available for outputs.
+* **tagpass**:
+A table mapping tag keys to arrays of glob pattern strings.  Only points
+that contain a tag key in the table and a tag value matching one of its
+patterns is emitted.
+* **tagdrop**:
+The inverse of `tagpass`.  If a match is found the point is discarded. This
+is tested on points after they have passed the `tagpass` test.
+* **taginclude**:
+An array of glob pattern strings.  Only tags with a tag key matching one of
+the patterns are emitted.  In contrast to `tagpass`, which will pass an entire
+point based on its tag, `taginclude` removes all non matching tags from the
+point.  This filter can be used on both inputs & outputs, but it is
+_recommended_ to be used on inputs, as it is more efficient to filter out tags
+at the ingestion point.
+* **tagexclude**:
+The inverse of `taginclude`. Tags with a tag key matching one of the patterns
+will be discarded from the point.
+
+**NOTE** Due to the way TOML is parsed, `tagpass` and `tagdrop` parameters
+must be defined at the _end_ of the plugin definition, otherwise subsequent
+plugin config options will be interpreted as part of the tagpass/tagdrop
+tables.

+
+To enable profiling you need to specify address to config parameter `pprof-addr`, for example:
+

+
+There are several paths to get different profiling information:

+
+or to look at a 30-second CPU profile:

+# MinMax Aggregator Plugin
+
+The minmax aggregator plugin aggregates min & max values of each field it sees,
+emitting the aggrate every `period` seconds.
+
+### Configuration:
+
+```toml
+# Keep the aggregate min/max of each metric passing through.
+[[aggregators.minmax]]
+  ## General Aggregator Arguments:
+  ## The period on which to flush & clear the aggregator.
+  period = "30s"
+  ## If true, the original metric will be dropped by the
+  ## aggregator and will not get sent to the output plugins.
+  drop_original = false
+```
+
+### Measurements & Fields:
+
+- measurement1
+    - field1_max
+    - field1_min
+
+### Tags:
+
+No tags are applied by this aggregator.
+
+### Example Output:

+# AMQP Consumer Input Plugin
+
+This plugin provides a consumer for use with AMQP 0-9-1, a promenent implementation of this protocol being [RabbitMQ](https://www.rabbitmq.com/).
+
+Metrics are read from a topic exchange using the configured queue and binding_key.
+
+Message payload should be formatted in one of the [Telegraf Data Formats](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/docs/DATA_FORMATS_INPUT.md).
+
+For an introduction to AMQP see:
+- https://www.rabbitmq.com/tutorials/amqp-concepts.html
+- https://www.rabbitmq.com/getstarted.html
+
+The following defaults are known to work with RabbitMQ:
+
+```toml
+# AMQP consumer plugin
+[[inputs.amqp_consumer]]
+  ## AMQP url
+  url = "amqp://localhost:5672/influxdb"
+  ## AMQP exchange
+  exchange = "telegraf"
+  ## AMQP queue name
+  queue = "telegraf"
+  ## Binding Key
+  binding_key = "#"
+
+  ## Controls how many messages the server will try to keep on the network
+  ## for consumers before receiving delivery acks.
+  #prefetch_count = 50
+
+  ## Auth method. PLAIN and EXTERNAL are supported.
+  ## Using EXTERNAL requires enabling the rabbitmq_auth_mechanism_ssl plugin as
+  ## described here: https://www.rabbitmq.com/plugins.html
+  # auth_method = "PLAIN"
+  ## Optional SSL Config
+  # ssl_ca = "/etc/telegraf/ca.pem"
+  # ssl_cert = "/etc/telegraf/cert.pem"
+  # ssl_key = "/etc/telegraf/key.pem"
+  ## Use SSL but skip chain & host verification
+  # insecure_skip_verify = false
+
+  ## Data format to output.
+  ## Each data format has its own unique set of configuration options, read
+  ## more about them here:
