Refactor to use AggregatingOutput

Metrics that are unserializable will be logged at debug level, but the
rest of the batch will be sent.  Unserializable metrics can occur during
normal operation such as if you remove all fields from a metric or the
metric cannot fit within the line size limit.

-# 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`
-
-## `[tags]` Configuration
-
-Global tags can be specific in the `[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.
-
-## `[agent]` Configuration
-
-Telegraf has a few options you can configure under the `agent` section of the
-config.
-
-* **interval**: Default data collection interval for all inputs
-* **round_interval**: Rounds collection interval to 'interval'
-ie, if interval="10s" then always collect on :00, :10, :20, etc.
-* **metric_buffer_limit**: Telegraf will cache metric_buffer_limit metrics
-for each output, and will flush this buffer on a successful write.
-* **collection_jitter**: Collection jitter is used to jitter
-the collection by a random amount.
-Each plugin will sleep for a random time within jitter before collecting.
-This can be used to avoid many plugins querying things like sysfs at the
-same time, which can have a measurable effect on the system.
-* **flush_interval**: Default data flushing interval for all outputs.
-You should not set this below
-interval. Maximum flush_interval will be flush_interval + flush_jitter
-* **flush_jitter**: Jitter the flush interval by a random amount.
-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.
-* **debug**: Run telegraf in debug mode.
-* **quiet**: Run telegraf in quiet mode.
-* **hostname**: Override default hostname, if empty use os.Hostname().
-
-## `[inputs.xxx]` Configuration
-
-There are some configuration options that are configurable per input:
-
-* **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.
-
-#### Input Filters
-
-There are also filters that can be configured per input:
-
-* **pass**: 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.
-* **drop**: The inverse of pass, if a field name matches, it is not emitted.
-* **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.
-
-#### Input Configuration Examples
-
-This is a full working config that will output CPU data to an InfluxDB instance
-at 192.168.59.103:8086, tagging measurements with dc="denver-1". It will output
-measurements at a 10s interval and will collect per-cpu data, dropping any
-fields which begin with `time_`.
-
-```toml
-[tags]
-  dc = "denver-1"
-
-[agent]
-  interval = "10s"
-
-# OUTPUTS
-[[outputs.influxdb]]
-  url = "http://192.168.59.103:8086" # required.
-  database = "telegraf" # required.
-  precision = "s"
-
-# INPUTS
-[[inputs.cpu]]
-  percpu = true
-  totalcpu = false
-  # filter all fields beginning with 'time_'
-  drop = ["time_*"]
-```
-
-#### Input Config: tagpass and tagdrop
-
-```toml
-[[inputs.cpu]]
-  percpu = true
-  totalcpu = false
-  drop = ["cpu_time"]
-  # Don't collect CPU data for cpu6 & cpu7
-  [inputs.cpu.tagdrop]
-    cpu = [ "cpu6", "cpu7" ]
-
-[[inputs.disk]]
-  [inputs.disk.tagpass]
-    # tagpass conditions are OR, not AND.
-    # If the (filesystem is ext4 or xfs) OR (the path is /opt or /home)
-    # then the metric passes
-    fstype = [ "ext4", "xfs" ]
-    # Globs can also be used on the tag values
-    path = [ "/opt", "/home*" ]
-```
-
-#### Input Config: pass and drop
-
-```toml
-# Drop all metrics for guest & steal CPU usage
-[[inputs.cpu]]
-  percpu = false
-  totalcpu = true
-  drop = ["usage_guest", "usage_steal"]
-
-# Only store inode related metrics for disks
-[[inputs.disk]]
-  pass = ["inodes*"]
-```
-
-#### Input config: prefix, suffix, and override
-
-This plugin will emit measurements with the name `cpu_total`
-
-```toml
-[[inputs.cpu]]
-  name_suffix = "_total"
-  percpu = false
-  totalcpu = true
-```
-
-This will emit measurements with the name `foobar`
-
-```toml
-[[inputs.cpu]]
-  name_override = "foobar"
-  percpu = false
-  totalcpu = true
-```
-
-#### Input config: tags
-
-This plugin will emit measurements with two additional tags: `tag1=foo` and
-`tag2=bar`
-
-```toml
-[[inputs.cpu]]
-  percpu = false
-  totalcpu = true
-  [inputs.cpu.tags]
-    tag1 = "foo"
-    tag2 = "bar"
-```
-
-#### Multiple inputs of the same type
-
-Additional inputs (or outputs) of the same type can be specified,
-just define more instances in the config file. It is highly recommended that
-you utilize `name_override`, `name_prefix`, or `name_suffix` config options
-to avoid measurement collisions:
-
-```toml
-[[inputs.cpu]]
-  percpu = false
-  totalcpu = true
-
-[[inputs.cpu]]
-  percpu = true
-  totalcpu = false
-  name_override = "percpu_usage"
-  drop = ["cpu_time*"]
-```
-
-## `[outputs.xxx]` Configuration
-
-Telegraf also supports specifying multiple output sinks to send data to,
-configuring each output sink is different, but examples can be
-found by running `telegraf -sample-config`.
-
-Outputs also support the same configurable options as inputs
-(pass, drop, tagpass, tagdrop)
-
-```toml
-[[outputs.influxdb]]
-  urls = [ "http://localhost:8086" ]
-  database = "telegraf"
-  precision = "s"
-  # Drop all measurements that start with "aerospike"
-  drop = ["aerospike*"]
-
-[[outputs.influxdb]]
-  urls = [ "http://localhost:8086" ]
-  database = "telegraf-aerospike-data"
-  precision = "s"
-  # Only accept aerospike data:
-  pass = ["aerospike*"]
-
-[[outputs.influxdb]]
-  urls = [ "http://localhost:8086" ]
-  database = "telegraf-cpu0-data"
-  precision = "s"
-  # Only store measurements where the tag "cpu" matches the value "cpu0"
-  [outputs.influxdb.tagpass]
-    cpu = ["cpu0"]
-```

-    Description() string
-    Gather(Accumulator) error

-
-type Accumulator interface {
-    Add(measurement string,

-        tags map[string]string,
-        timestamp ...time.Time)
-}
-```
-
-### Accumulator
-
-The way that a plugin emits metrics is by interacting with the Accumulator.
-
-The `Add` function takes 3 arguments:
-* **measurement**: A string description of the metric. For instance `bytes_read` or `
-faults`.
-* **value**: A value for the metric. This accepts 5 different types of value:
-  * **int**: The most common type. All int types are accepted but favor using `int64`
-  Useful for counters, etc.
-  * **float**: Favor `float64`, useful for gauges, percentages, etc.
-  * **bool**: `true` or `false`, useful to indicate the presence of a state. `light_on`,
-  etc.
-  * **string**: Typically used to indicate a message, or some kind of freeform
-  information.
-  * **time.Time**: Useful for indicating when a state last occurred, for instance `
-  light_on_since`.
-* **tags**: This is a map of strings to strings to describe the where or who
-about the metric. For instance, the `net` plugin adds a tag named `"interface"`
-set to the name of the network interface, like `"eth0"`.

+## Adding Typed Metrics
+
+In addition the the `AddFields` function, the accumulator also supports an
+`AddGauge` and `AddCounter` function. These functions are for adding _typed_
+metrics. Metric types are ignored for the InfluxDB output, but can be used
+for other outputs, such as [prometheus](https://prometheus.io/docs/concepts/metric_types/).
+
+## Input Plugins Accepting Arbitrary Data Formats
+
+Some input plugins (such as
+[exec](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/tree/master/plugins/inputs/exec))
+accept arbitrary input data formats. An overview of these data formats can
+be found
+[here](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/docs/DATA_FORMATS_INPUT.md).
+
+In order to enable this, you must specify a `SetParser(parser parsers.Parser)`
+function on the plugin object (see the exec plugin for an example), as well as
+defining `parser` as a field of the object.
+
+You can then utilize the parser internally in your plugin, parsing data as you
+see fit. Telegraf's configuration layer will take care of instantiating and
+creating the `Parser` object.
+
+You should also add the following to your SampleConfig() return:
+
+```toml
+  ## Data format to consume.
+  ## 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_INPUT.md
+  data_format = "influx"
+```
+
+Below is the `Parser` interface.
+
+```go
+// Parser is an interface defining functions that a parser plugin must satisfy.
+type Parser interface {
+    // Parse takes a byte buffer separated by newlines
+    // ie, `cpu.usage.idle 90\ncpu.usage.busy 10`
+    // and parses it into telegraf metrics
+    Parse(buf []byte) ([]telegraf.Metric, error)
+
+    // ParseLine takes a single string metric
+    // ie, "cpu.usage.idle 90"
+    // and parses it into a telegraf metric.
+    ParseLine(line string) (telegraf.Metric, error)
+}
+```

+## Output Plugins Writing Arbitrary Data Formats
+
+Some output plugins (such as
+[file](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/tree/master/plugins/outputs/file))
+can write arbitrary output data formats. An overview of these data formats can
+be found
+[here](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/docs/DATA_FORMATS_OUTPUT.md).
+
+In order to enable this, you must specify a
+`SetSerializer(serializer serializers.Serializer)`
+function on the plugin object (see the file plugin for an example), as well as
+defining `serializer` as a field of the object.
+
+You can then utilize the serializer internally in your plugin, serializing data
+before it's written. Telegraf's configuration layer will take care of
+instantiating and creating the `Serializer` object.
+
+You should also add the following to your SampleConfig() return:
+
+```toml
+  ## 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 = "influx"
+```

 * Same as the `Output` guidelines, except that they must conform to the
 `output.ServiceOutput` interface.

+## Processor Plugins
+
+This section is for developers who want to create a new processor plugin.
+
+### Processor Plugin Guidelines
+
+* A processor must conform to the [`telegraf.Processor`](https://godoc.org/github.com/influxdata/telegraf#Processor) interface.
+* Processors should call `processors.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/processors/all/all.go` file.
+* The `SampleConfig` function should return valid toml that describes how the
+processor can be configured. This is include in the output of `telegraf config`.
+* The `Description` function should say in one line what this processor does.
+
+### Processor Example
 
 ```go
-type ServiceOutput interface {
-    Connect() error
-    Close() error
-    Description() string
-    SampleConfig() string
-    Write(points []*client.Point) error
-    Start() error
-    Stop()
+package printer
+
+// printer.go
+
+import (
+	"fmt"

+
+func (p *Printer) SampleConfig() string {

+}
+
+func (p *Printer) Apply(in ...telegraf.Metric) []telegraf.Metric {
+	for _, metric := range in {
+		fmt.Println(metric.String())
+	}
+	return in
+}
+
+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 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
+
+import (
+	"github.com/influxdata/telegraf"
+	"github.com/influxdata/telegraf/plugins/aggregators"

+
+type Min struct {
+	// caches for metric fields, names, and tags
+	fieldCache map[uint64]map[string]float64
+	nameCache  map[uint64]string
+	tagCache   map[uint64]map[string]string
+}
+
+func NewMin() telegraf.Aggregator {
+	m := &Min{}
+	m.Reset()
+	return m
+}
+
+var sampleConfig = `
+  ## period is the flush & clear interval of the aggregator.
+  period = "30s"
+  ## If true drop_original will drop the original metrics and
+  ## only send aggregates.
+  drop_original = false
+`
+
+func (m *Min) SampleConfig() string {
+	return sampleConfig
+}
+
+func (m *Min) Description() string {
+	return "Keep the aggregate min of each metric passing through."
+}
+
+func (m *Min) Add(in telegraf.Metric) {
+	id := in.HashID()
+	if _, ok := m.nameCache[id]; !ok {
+		// hit an uncached metric, create caches for first time:
+		m.nameCache[id] = in.Name()
+		m.tagCache[id] = in.Tags()
+		m.fieldCache[id] = make(map[string]float64)
+		for k, v := range in.Fields() {
+			if fv, ok := convert(v); ok {
+				m.fieldCache[id][k] = fv
+			}
+		}
+	} else {
+		for k, v := range in.Fields() {
+			if fv, ok := convert(v); ok {
+				if _, ok := m.fieldCache[id][k]; !ok {
+					// hit an uncached field of a cached metric
+					m.fieldCache[id][k] = fv
+					continue
+				}
+				if fv < m.fieldCache[id][k] {
+                    // set new minimum
+					m.fieldCache[id][k] = fv
+				}
+			}
+		}
+	}
+}
+
+func (m *Min) Push(acc telegraf.Accumulator) {
+	for id, _ := range m.nameCache {
+		fields := map[string]interface{}{}
+		for k, v := range m.fieldCache[id] {
+			fields[k+"_min"] = v
+		}
+		acc.AddFields(m.nameCache[id], fields, m.tagCache[id])
+	}
+}
+
+func (m *Min) Reset() {
+	m.fieldCache = make(map[uint64]map[string]float64)
+	m.nameCache = make(map[uint64]string)
+	m.tagCache = make(map[uint64]map[string]string)
+}
+
+func convert(in interface{}) (float64, bool) {
+	switch v := in.(type) {
+	case float64:
+		return v, true
+	case int64:
+		return float64(v), true
+	default:
+		return 0, false
+	}
+}
+
+func init() {
+	aggregators.Add("min", func() telegraf.Aggregator {
+		return NewMin()
+	})
 }

 ## Unit Tests
 
+Before opening a pull request you should run the linter checks and
+the short tests.
+
+### Execute linter
+
+execute `make lint`
+
 ### Execute short tests
 
-execute `make test-short`
+execute `make test`
 
-### Execute long tests
+### Execute integration tests
 
-As Telegraf collects metrics from several third-party services it becomes a
-difficult task to mock each service as some of them have complicated protocols
-which would take some time to replicate.
+Running the integration tests requires several docker containers to be
+running.  You can start the containers with:
+```
+make docker-run
+```
 
-To overcome this situation we've decided to use docker containers to provide a
-fast and reproducible environment to test those services which require it.
-For other situations
-(i.e: https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/plugins/redis/redis_test.go)
-a simple mock will suffice.
+And run the full test suite with:
+```
+make test-all
+```
 
-To execute Telegraf tests follow these simple steps:
-
-- Install docker following [these](https://docs.docker.com/installation/)
-instructions
-- execute `make test`
-
-**OSX users**: you will need to install `boot2docker` or `docker-machine`.
-The Makefile will assume that you have a `docker-machine` box called `default` to
-get the IP address.
-
-### Unit test troubleshooting
-
-Try cleaning up your test environment by executing `make docker-kill` and
-re-running
+Use `make docker-kill` to stop the containers.

-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).
+.  For an example configuration referencet from local or remote services.
 
-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.
-See the [contributing guide](CONTRIBUTING.md) for instructions on writing
-new plugins.
+

 ### From Source:
 
-Telegraf manages dependencies via [gdm](https://github.com/sparrc/gdm),
-which gets installed via the Makefile
-if you don't have it already. You also must build with golang version 1.5+.
+Telegraf requires golang version 1.8+, the Makefile requires GNU make.
+
+Dependencies are managed with [gdm](https://github.com/sparrc/gdm),
+which is installed by the Makefile if you don't have it already.
 
 1. [Install Go](https://golang.org/doc/install)
 2. [Setup your GOPATH](https://golang.org/doc/code.html#GOPATH)

-Usage:
+## How to use it:
 
-  telegraf <flags>
+See usage with:
 
-The flags are:
-
-  -config <file>     configuration file to load
-  -test              gather metrics once, print them to stdout, and exit
-  -sample-config     print out full sample configuration to stdout
-  -config-directory  directory containing additional *.conf files
-  -input-filter      filter the input plugins to enable, separator is :
-  -output-filter     filter the output plugins to enable, separator is :
-  -usage             print usage for a plugin, ie, 'telegraf -usage mysql'
-  -debug             print metrics as they're generated to stdout
-  -quiet             run in quiet mode
-  -version           print the version to stdout
-
-Examples:
-
-  # generate a telegraf config file:
-  telegraf -sample-config > telegraf.conf
-
-  # generate config with only cpu input & influxdb output plugins defined
-  telegraf -sample-config -input-filter cpu -output-filter influxdb
-
-  # run a single telegraf collection, outputing metrics to stdout
-  telegraf -config telegraf.conf -test
-
-  # run telegraf with all plugins defined in config file
-  telegraf -config telegraf.conf
-
-  # run telegraf, enabling the cpu & memory input, and influxdb output plugins
-  telegraf -config telegraf.conf -input-filter cpu:mem -output-filter influxdb

-Usage:
-
-  telegraf <flags>
-
-The flags are:
-
-  -config <file>     configuration file to load
-  -test              gather metrics once, print them to stdout, and exit
-  -sample-config     print out full sample configuration to stdout
-  -config-directory  directory containing additional *.conf files
-  -input-filter      filter the input plugins to enable, separator is :
-  -output-filter     filter the output plugins to enable, separator is :
-  -usage             print usage for a plugin, ie, 'telegraf -usage mysql'

-  -quiet             run in quiet mode
-  -version           print the version to stdout
-
-Examples:
-
-  # generate a telegraf config file:
-  telegraf -sample-config > telegraf.conf
-
-  # generate config with only cpu input & influxdb output plugins defined
-  telegraf -sample-config -input-filter cpu -output-filter influxdb
-
-  # run a single telegraf collection, outputing metrics to stdout
-  telegraf -config telegraf.conf -test
-
-  # run telegraf with all plugins defined in config file
-  telegraf -config telegraf.conf
-
-  # run telegraf, enabling the cpu & memory input, and influxdb output plugins

+
+Both Aggregators and Processors analyze metrics as they pass through Telegraf.
+
+Use [measurement filtering](CONFIGURATION.md#measurement-filtering)
+to control which metrics are passed through a processor or aggregator.  If a
+metric is filtered out the metric bypasses the plugin and is passed downstream
+to the next plugin.
+
+**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
+
+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
+
+A default Telegraf config file can be auto-generated by telegraf:
+
+```
+telegraf config > telegraf.conf
+```
+
+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)
+
+When using the `.deb` or `.rpm` packages, you can define environment variables
+in the `/etc/default/telegraf` file.
+
+## Configuration file locations
+
+The location of the configuration file can be set via the `--config` command
+line flag.
+
+When the `--config-directory` command line flag is used files ending with
+`.conf` in the specified directory will also be included in the Telegraf
+configuration.
+
+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.
+
+## Agent Configuration
+
+Telegraf has a few options you can configure under the `[agent]` section of the
+config.
+
+* **interval**: Default data collection interval for all inputs
+* **round_interval**: Rounds collection interval to 'interval'
+ie, if interval="10s" then always collect on :00, :10, :20, etc.
+* **metric_batch_size**: Telegraf will send metrics to output in batch of at
+most metric_batch_size metrics.
+* **metric_buffer_limit**: Telegraf will cache metric_buffer_limit metrics
+for each output, and will flush this buffer on a successful write.
+This should be a multiple of metric_batch_size and could not be less
+than 2 times metric_batch_size.
+* **collection_jitter**: Collection jitter is used to jitter
+the collection by a random amount.
+Each plugin will sleep for a random time within jitter before collecting.
+This can be used to avoid many plugins querying things like sysfs at the
+same time, which can have a measurable effect on the system.
+* **flush_interval**: Default data flushing interval for all outputs.
+You should not set this below
+interval. Maximum flush_interval will be flush_interval + flush_jitter
+* **flush_jitter**: Jitter the flush interval by a random amount.
+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 or when set to "0s", 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. It is up to each individual
+   service input to set the timestamp at the appropriate precision.
+   Valid time units are "ns", "us" (or "µs"), "ms", "s".
+
+* **logfile**: Specify the log file name. The empty string means to log to stderr.
+* **debug**: Run telegraf in debug mode.
+* **quiet**: Run telegraf in quiet mode (error messages only).
+* **hostname**: Override default hostname, if empty use os.Hostname().
+* **omit_hostname**: If true, do no set the "host" tag in the telegraf agent.
+
+## Input Configuration
+
+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.
+
+The [measurement filtering](#measurement-filtering) parameters can be used to
+limit what metrics are emitted from the input plugin.
+
+## Output Configuration
+
+The [measurement filtering](#measurement-filtering) parameters can be used to
+limit what metrics are emitted from the output plugin.
+
+## 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 [measurement filtering](#measurement-filtering) parameters can be used to
+limit what metrics are handled by the aggregator.  Excluded metrics are passed
+downstream to the next aggregator.
+
+## Processor Configuration
+
+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.
+
+The [measurement filtering](#measurement-filtering) parameters can be used
+to limit what metrics are handled by the processor.  Excluded metrics are
+passed downstream to the next processor.
+
+#### 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.
+* **fielddrop**:
+The inverse of `fieldpass`.  Fields with a field key matching one of the
+patterns will be discarded from the point.  This is tested on points after
+they have passed the `fieldpass` test.
+* **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.
+
+#### Input Configuration Examples
+
+This is a full working config that will output CPU data to an InfluxDB instance
+at 192.168.59.103:8086, tagging measurements with dc="denver-1". It will output
+measurements at a 10s interval and will collect per-cpu data, dropping any
+fields which begin with `time_`.
+
+```toml
+[global_tags]
+  dc = "denver-1"
+
+[agent]
+  interval = "10s"
+
+# OUTPUTS
+[[outputs.influxdb]]
+  url = "http://192.168.59.103:8086" # required.
+  database = "telegraf" # required.
+
+# INPUTS
+[[inputs.cpu]]
+  percpu = true
+  totalcpu = false
+  # filter all fields beginning with 'time_'
+  fielddrop = ["time_*"]
+```
+
+#### Input Config: tagpass and tagdrop
+
+**NOTE** `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 map.
+
+```toml
+[[inputs.cpu]]
+  percpu = true
+  totalcpu = false
+  fielddrop = ["cpu_time"]
+  # Don't collect CPU data for cpu6 & cpu7
+  [inputs.cpu.tagdrop]
+    cpu = [ "cpu6", "cpu7" ]
+
+[[inputs.disk]]
+  [inputs.disk.tagpass]
+    # tagpass conditions are OR, not AND.
+    # If the (filesystem is ext4 or xfs) OR (the path is /opt or /home)
+    # then the metric passes
+    fstype = [ "ext4", "xfs" ]
+    # Globs can also be used on the tag values
+    path = [ "/opt", "/home*" ]
+```
+
+#### Input Config: fieldpass and fielddrop
+
+```toml
+# Drop all metrics for guest & steal CPU usage
+[[inputs.cpu]]
+  percpu = false
+  totalcpu = true
+  fielddrop = ["usage_guest", "usage_steal"]
+
+# Only store inode related metrics for disks
+[[inputs.disk]]
+  fieldpass = ["inodes*"]
+```
+
+#### Input Config: namepass and namedrop
+
+```toml
+# Drop all metrics about containers for kubelet
+[[inputs.prometheus]]
+  urls = ["http://kube-node-1:4194/metrics"]
+  namedrop = ["container_*"]
+
+# Only store rest client related metrics for kubelet
+[[inputs.prometheus]]
+  urls = ["http://kube-node-1:4194/metrics"]
+  namepass = ["rest_client_*"]
+```
+
+#### Input Config: taginclude and tagexclude
+
+```toml
+# Only include the "cpu" tag in the measurements for the cpu plugin.
+[[inputs.cpu]]
+  percpu = true
+  totalcpu = true
+  taginclude = ["cpu"]
+
+# Exclude the "fstype" tag from the measurements for the disk plugin.
+[[inputs.disk]]
+  tagexclude = ["fstype"]
+```
+
+#### Input config: prefix, suffix, and override
+
+This plugin will emit measurements with the name `cpu_total`
+
+```toml
+[[inputs.cpu]]
+  name_suffix = "_total"
+  percpu = false
+  totalcpu = true
+```
+
+This will emit measurements with the name `foobar`
+
+```toml
+[[inputs.cpu]]
+  name_override = "foobar"
+  percpu = false
+  totalcpu = true
+```
+
+#### Input config: tags
+
+This plugin will emit measurements with two additional tags: `tag1=foo` and
+`tag2=bar`
+
+NOTE: Order matters, the `[inputs.cpu.tags]` table must be at the _end_ of the
+plugin definition.
+
+```toml
+[[inputs.cpu]]
+  percpu = false
+  totalcpu = true
+  [inputs.cpu.tags]
+    tag1 = "foo"
+    tag2 = "bar"
+```
+
+#### Multiple inputs of the same type
+
+Additional inputs (or outputs) of the same type can be specified,
+just define more instances in the config file. It is highly recommended that
+you utilize `name_override`, `name_prefix`, or `name_suffix` config options
+to avoid measurement collisions:
+
+```toml
+[[inputs.cpu]]
+  percpu = false
+  totalcpu = true
+
+[[inputs.cpu]]
+  percpu = true
+  totalcpu = false
+  name_override = "percpu_usage"
+  fielddrop = ["cpu_time*"]
+```
+
+#### Output Configuration Examples:
+
+```toml
+[[outputs.influxdb]]
+  urls = [ "http://localhost:8086" ]
+  database = "telegraf"
+  # Drop all measurements that start with "aerospike"
+  namedrop = ["aerospike*"]
+
+[[outputs.influxdb]]
+  urls = [ "http://localhost:8086" ]
+  database = "telegraf-aerospike-data"
+  # Only accept aerospike data:
+  namepass = ["aerospike*"]
+
+[[outputs.influxdb]]
+  urls = [ "http://localhost:8086" ]
+  database = "telegraf-cpu0-data"
+  # Only store measurements where the tag "cpu" matches the value "cpu0"
+  [outputs.influxdb.tagpass]
+    cpu = ["cpu0"]
+```
+
+#### Aggregator Configuration Examples:
+
+This will collect and emit the min/max of the system load1 metric every
+30s, dropping the originals.
+
+```toml
+[[inputs.system]]
+  fieldpass = ["load1"] # collects system load1 metric.
+
+[[aggregators.minmax]]
+  period = "30s"        # send & clear the aggregate every 30s.
+  drop_original = true  # drop the original metrics.
+
+[[outputs.file]]
+  files = ["stdout"]
+```
+
+This will collect and emit the min/max of the swap metrics every
+30s, dropping the originals. The aggregator will not be applied
+to the system load metrics due to the `namepass` parameter.
+
+```toml
+[[inputs.swap]]
+
+[[inputs.system]]
+  fieldpass = ["load1"] # collects system load1 metric.
+
+[[aggregators.minmax]]
+  period = "30s"        # send & clear the aggregate every 30s.
+  drop_original = true  # drop the original metrics.
+  namepass = ["swap"]   # only "pass" swap metrics through the aggregator.
+
+[[outputs.file]]
+  files = ["stdout"]
+```
+
+#### Processor Configuration Examples:
+
+Print only the metrics with `cpu` as the measurement name, all metrics are
+passed to the output:
+```toml
+[[processors.printer]]
+  namepass = "cpu"
+
+[[outputs.file]]
+  files = ["/tmp/metrics.out"]
+```

+# Telegraf Input Data Formats
+
+Telegraf is able to parse the following input data formats into metrics:
+
+1. [InfluxDB Line Protocol](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/docs/DATA_FORMATS_INPUT.md#influx)
+1. [JSON](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/docs/DATA_FORMATS_INPUT.md#json)
+1. [Graphite](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/docs/DATA_FORMATS_INPUT.md#graphite)
+1. [Value](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/docs/DATA_FORMATS_INPUT.md#value), ie: 45 or "booyah"
+1. [Nagios](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/docs/DATA_FORMATS_INPUT.md#nagios) (exec input only)
+1. [Collectd](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/docs/DATA_FORMATS_INPUT.md#collectd)
+1. [Dropwizard](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/blob/master/docs/DATA_FORMATS_INPUT.md#dropwizard)
+
+Telegraf metrics, like InfluxDB
+[points](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/v0.10/write_protocols/line/),
+are a combination of four basic parts:
+
+1. Measurement Name
+1. Tags
+1. Fields
+1. Timestamp
+
+These four parts are easily defined when using InfluxDB line-protocol as a
+data format. But there are other data formats that users may want to use which
+require more advanced configuration to create usable Telegraf metrics.
+
+Plugins such as `exec` and `kafka_consumer` parse textual data. Up until now,
+these plugins were statically configured to parse just a single
+data format. `exec` mostly only supported parsing JSON, and `kafka_consumer` only
+supported data in InfluxDB line-protocol.
+
+But now we are normalizing the parsing of various data formats across all
+plugins that can support it. You will be able to identify a plugin that supports
+different data formats by the presence of a `data_format` config option, for
+example, in the exec plugin:
+
+```toml
+[[inputs.exec]]
+  ## Commands array
+  commands = ["/tmp/test.sh", "/usr/bin/mycollector --foo=bar"]
+
+  ## measurement name suffix (for separating different commands)
+  name_suffix = "_mycollector"
+
+  ## Data format to consume.
+  ## 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_INPUT.md
+  data_format = "json"
+
+  ## Additional configuration options go here
+```
+
+Each data_format has an additional set of configuration options available, which
+I'll go over below.
+
+# Influx:
+
+There are no additional configuration options for InfluxDB line-protocol. The
+metrics are parsed directly into Telegraf metrics.
+
+#### Influx Configuration:
+
+```toml
+[[inputs.exec]]
+  ## Commands array
+  commands = ["/tmp/test.sh", "/usr/bin/mycollector --foo=bar"]
+
+  ## measurement name suffix (for separating different commands)
+  name_suffix = "_mycollector"
+
+  ## Data format to consume.
+  ## 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_INPUT.md
+  data_format = "influx"
+```
+
+# JSON:
+
+The JSON data format flattens JSON into metric _fields_.
+NOTE: Only numerical values are converted to fields, and they are converted
+into a float. strings are ignored unless specified as a tag_key (see below).
+
+So for example, this JSON:
+
+```json
+{
+    "a": 5,
+    "b": {
+        "c": 6
+    },
+    "ignored": "I'm a string"
+}
+```
+
+Would get translated into _fields_ of a measurement:
+
+```
+myjsonmetric a=5,b_c=6
+```
+
+The _measurement_ _name_ is usually the name of the plugin,
+but can be overridden using the `name_override` config option.
+
+#### JSON Configuration:
+
+The JSON data format supports specifying "tag keys". If specified, keys
+will be searched for in the root-level of the JSON blob. If the key(s) exist,
+they will be applied as tags to the Telegraf metrics.
+
+For example, if you had this configuration:
+
+```toml
+[[inputs.exec]]
+  ## Commands array
+  commands = ["/tmp/test.sh", "/usr/bin/mycollector --foo=bar"]
+
+  ## measurement name suffix (for separating different commands)
+  name_suffix = "_mycollector"
+
+  ## Data format to consume.
+  ## 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_INPUT.md
+  data_format = "json"
+
+  ## List of tag names to extract from top-level of JSON server response
+  tag_keys = [
+    "my_tag_1",
+    "my_tag_2"
+  ]
+```
+
+with this JSON output from a command:
+
+```json
+{
+    "a": 5,
+    "b": {
+        "c": 6
+    },
+    "my_tag_1": "foo"
+}
+```
+
+Your Telegraf metrics would get tagged with "my_tag_1"
+
+```
+exec_mycollector,my_tag_1=foo a=5,b_c=6
+```
+
+If the JSON data is an array, then each element of the array is parsed with the configured settings.
+Each resulting metric will be output with the same timestamp.
+
+For example, if the following configuration:
+
+```toml
+[[inputs.exec]]
+  ## Commands array
+  commands = ["/usr/bin/mycollector --foo=bar"]
+
+  ## measurement name suffix (for separating different commands)
+  name_suffix = "_mycollector"
+
+  ## Data format to consume.
+  ## 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_INPUT.md
+  data_format = "json"
+
+  ## List of tag names to extract from top-level of JSON server response
+  tag_keys = [
+    "my_tag_1",
+    "my_tag_2"
+  ]
+```
+
+with this JSON output from a command:
+
+```json
+[
+    {
+        "a": 5,
+        "b": {
+            "c": 6
+        },
+        "my_tag_1": "foo",
+        "my_tag_2": "baz"
+    },
+    {
+        "a": 7,
+        "b": {
+            "c": 8
+        },
+        "my_tag_1": "bar",
+        "my_tag_2": "baz"
+    }
+]
+```
+
+Your Telegraf metrics would get tagged with "my_tag_1" and "my_tag_2"
+
+```
+exec_mycollector,my_tag_1=foo,my_tag_2=baz a=5,b_c=6
+exec_mycollector,my_tag_1=bar,my_tag_2=baz a=7,b_c=8
+```
+
+# Value:
+
+The "value" data format translates single values into Telegraf metrics. This
+is done by assigning a measurement name and setting a single field ("value")
+as the parsed metric.
+
+#### Value Configuration:
+
+You **must** tell Telegraf what type of metric to collect by using the
+`data_type` configuration option. Available options are:
+
+1. integer
+2. float or long
+3. string
+4. boolean
+
+**Note:** It is also recommended that you set `name_override` to a measurement
+name that makes sense for your metric, otherwise it will just be set to the
+name of the plugin.
+
+```toml
+[[inputs.exec]]
+  ## Commands array
+  commands = ["cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail"]
+
+  ## override the default metric name of "exec"
+  name_override = "entropy_available"
+
+  ## Data format to consume.
+  ## 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_INPUT.md
+  data_format = "value"
+  data_type = "integer" # required
+```
+
+# Graphite:
+
+The Graphite data format translates graphite _dot_ buckets directly into
+telegraf measurement names, with a single value field, and without any tags.
+By default, the separator is left as ".", but this can be changed using the
+"separator" argument. For more advanced options,
+Telegraf supports specifying "templates" to translate
+graphite buckets into Telegraf metrics.
+
+Templates are of the form:
+
+```
+"host.mytag.mytag.measurement.measurement.field*"
+```
+
+Where the following keywords exist:
+
+1. `measurement`: specifies that this section of the graphite bucket corresponds
+to the measurement name. This can be specified multiple times.
+2. `field`: specifies that this section of the graphite bucket corresponds
+to the field name. This can be specified multiple times.
+3. `measurement*`: specifies that all remaining elements of the graphite bucket
+correspond to the measurement name.
+4. `field*`: specifies that all remaining elements of the graphite bucket
+correspond to the field name.
+
+Any part of the template that is not a keyword is treated as a tag key. This
+can also be specified multiple times.
+
+NOTE: `field*` cannot be used in conjunction with `measurement*`!
+
+#### Measurement & Tag Templates:
+
+The most basic template is to specify a single transformation to apply to all
+incoming metrics. So the following template:
+
+```toml
+templates = [
+    "region.region.measurement*"
+]
+```
+
+would result in the following Graphite -> Telegraf transformation.
+
+```
+us.west.cpu.load 100
+=> cpu.load,region=us.west value=100
+```
+
+Multiple templates can also be specified, but these should be differentiated
+using _filters_ (see below for more details)
+
+```toml
+templates = [
+    "*.*.* region.region.measurement", # <- all 3-part measurements will match this one.
+    "*.*.*.* region.region.host.measurement", # <- all 4-part measurements will match this one.
+]
+```
+
+#### Field Templates:
+
+The field keyword tells Telegraf to give the metric that field name.
+So the following template:
+
+```toml
+separator = "_"
+templates = [
+    "measurement.measurement.field.field.region"
+]
+```
+
+would result in the following Graphite -> Telegraf transformation.
+
+```
+cpu.usage.idle.percent.eu-east 100
+=> cpu_usage,region=eu-east idle_percent=100
+```
+
+The field key can also be derived from all remaining elements of the graphite
+bucket by specifying `field*`:
+
+```toml
+separator = "_"
+templates = [
+    "measurement.measurement.region.field*"
+]
+```
+
+which would result in the following Graphite -> Telegraf transformation.
+
+```
+cpu.usage.eu-east.idle.percentage 100
+=> cpu_usage,region=eu-east idle_percentage=100
+```
+
+#### Filter Templates:
+
+Users can also filter the template(s) to use based on the name of the bucket,
+using glob matching, like so:
+
+```toml
+templates = [
+    "cpu.* measurement.measurement.region",
+    "mem.* measurement.measurement.host"
+]
+```
+
+which would result in the following transformation:
+
+```
+cpu.load.eu-east 100
+=> cpu_load,region=eu-east value=100
+
+mem.cached.localhost 256
+=> mem_cached,host=localhost value=256
+```
+
+#### Adding Tags:
+
+Additional tags can be added to a metric that don't exist on the received metric.
+You can add additional tags by specifying them after the pattern.
+Tags have the same format as the line protocol.
+Multiple tags are separated by commas.
+
+```toml
+templates = [
+    "measurement.measurement.field.region datacenter=1a"
+]
+```
+
+would result in the following Graphite -> Telegraf transformation.
+
+```
+cpu.usage.idle.eu-east 100
+=> cpu_usage,region=eu-east,datacenter=1a idle=100
+```
+
+There are many more options available,
+[More details can be found here](https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/tree/master/services/graphite#templates)
+
+#### Graphite Configuration:
+
+```toml
+[[inputs.exec]]
+  ## Commands array
+  commands = ["/tmp/test.sh", "/usr/bin/mycollector --foo=bar"]
+
+  ## measurement name suffix (for separating different commands)
+  name_suffix = "_mycollector"
+
+  ## Data format to consume.
+  ## 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_INPUT.md
+  data_format = "graphite"
+
+  ## This string will be used to join the matched values.
+  separator = "_"
+
+  ## Each template line requires a template pattern. It can have an optional
+  ## filter before the template and separated by spaces. It can also have optional extra
+  ## tags following the template. Multiple tags should be separated by commas and no spaces
+  ## similar to the line protocol format. There can be only one default template.
+  ## Templates support below format:
+  ## 1. filter + template
+  ## 2. filter + template + extra tag(s)
+  ## 3. filter + template with field key
+  ## 4. default template
+  templates = [
+    "*.app env.service.resource.measurement",
+    "stats.* .host.measurement* region=eu-east,agent=sensu",
+    "stats2.* .host.measurement.field",
+    "measurement*"
+  ]
+```
+
+# Nagios:
+
+There are no additional configuration options for Nagios line-protocol. The
+metrics are parsed directly into Telegraf metrics.
+
+Note: Nagios Input Data Formats is only supported in `exec` input plugin.
+
+#### Nagios Configuration:
+
+```toml
+[[inputs.exec]]
+  ## Commands array
+  commands = ["/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_load -w 5,6,7 -c 7,8,9"]
+
+  ## measurement name suffix (for separating different commands)
+  name_suffix = "_mycollector"
+
+  ## Data format to consume.
+  ## 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_INPUT.md
+  data_format = "nagios"
+```
+
+# Collectd:
+
+The collectd format parses the collectd binary network protocol.  Tags are
+created for host, instance, type, and type instance.  All collectd values are
+added as float64 fields.
+
+For more information about the binary network protocol see
+[here](https://collectd.org/wiki/index.php/Binary_protocol).
+
+You can control the cryptographic settings with parser options.  Create an
+authentication file and set `collectd_auth_file` to the path of the file, then
+set the desired security level in `collectd_security_level`.
+
+Additional information including client setup can be found
+[here](https://collectd.org/wiki/index.php/Networking_introduction#Cryptographic_setup).
+
+You can also change the path to the typesdb or add additional typesdb using
+`collectd_typesdb`.
+
+#### Collectd Configuration:
+
+```toml
+[[inputs.socket_listener]]
+  service_address = "udp://127.0.0.1:25826"
+  name_prefix = "collectd_"
+
+  ## Data format to consume.
+  ## 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_INPUT.md
+  data_format = "collectd"
+
+  ## Authentication file for cryptographic security levels
+  collectd_auth_file = "/etc/collectd/auth_file"
+  ## One of none (default), sign, or encrypt
+  collectd_security_level = "encrypt"
+  ## Path of to TypesDB specifications
+  collectd_typesdb = ["/usr/share/collectd/types.db"]
+```
+
+# Dropwizard:
+
+The dropwizard format can parse the JSON representation of a single dropwizard metric registry. By default, tags are parsed from metric names as if they were actual influxdb line protocol keys (`measurement<,tag_set>`) which can be overriden by defining custom [measurement & tag templates](./DATA_FORMATS_INPUT.md#measurement--tag-templates). All field value types are supported, `string`, `number` and `boolean`.
+
+A typical JSON of a dropwizard metric registry:
+
+```json
+{
+	"version": "3.0.0",
+	"counters" : {
+		"measurement,tag1=green" : {
+			"count" : 1
+		}
+	},
+	"meters" : {
+		"measurement" : {
+			"count" : 1,
+			"m15_rate" : 1.0,
+			"m1_rate" : 1.0,
+			"m5_rate" : 1.0,
+			"mean_rate" : 1.0,
+			"units" : "events/second"
+		}
+	},
+	"gauges" : {
+		"measurement" : {
+			"value" : 1
+		}
+	},
+	"histograms" : {
+		"measurement" : {
+			"count" : 1,
+			"max" : 1.0,
+			"mean" : 1.0,
+			"min" : 1.0,
+			"p50" : 1.0,
+			"p75" : 1.0,
+			"p95" : 1.0,
+			"p98" : 1.0,
+			"p99" : 1.0,
+			"p999" : 1.0,
+			"stddev" : 1.0
+		}
+	},
+	"timers" : {
+		"measurement" : {
+			"count" : 1,
+			"max" : 1.0,
+			"mean" : 1.0,
+			"min" : 1.0,
+			"p50" : 1.0,
+			"p75" : 1.0,
+			"p95" : 1.0,
+			"p98" : 1.0,
+			"p99" : 1.0,
+			"p999" : 1.0,
+			"stddev" : 1.0,
+			"m15_rate" : 1.0,
+			"m1_rate" : 1.0,
+			"m5_rate" : 1.0,
+			"mean_rate" : 1.0,
+			"duration_units" : "seconds",
+			"rate_units" : "calls/second"
+		}
+	}
+}
+```
+
+Would get translated into 4 different measurements:
+
+```
+measurement,metric_type=counter,tag1=green count=1
+measurement,metric_type=meter count=1,m15_rate=1.0,m1_rate=1.0,m5_rate=1.0,mean_rate=1.0
+measurement,metric_type=gauge value=1
+measurement,metric_type=histogram count=1,max=1.0,mean=1.0,min=1.0,p50=1.0,p75=1.0,p95=1.0,p98=1.0,p99=1.0,p999=1.0
+measurement,metric_type=timer count=1,max=1.0,mean=1.0,min=1.0,p50=1.0,p75=1.0,p95=1.0,p98=1.0,p99=1.0,p999=1.0,stddev=1.0,m15_rate=1.0,m1_rate=1.0,m5_rate=1.0,mean_rate=1.0
+```
+
+You may also parse a dropwizard registry from any JSON document which contains a dropwizard registry in some inner field. 
+Eg. to parse the following JSON document:
+
+```json
+{

+# Telegraf Output Data Formats
+
+Telegraf is able to serialize metrics into the following output data formats:
+
+1. [InfluxDB Line Protocol](#influx)
+1. [JSON](#json)
+1. [Graphite](#graphite)
+
+Telegraf metrics, like InfluxDB
+[points](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/latest/concepts/glossary/#point),
+are a combination of four basic parts:
+
+1. Measurement Name
+1. Tags
+1. Fields
+1. Timestamp
+
+In InfluxDB line protocol, these 4 parts are easily defined in textual form:
+
+```
+measurement_name[,tag1=val1,...]  field1=val1[,field2=val2,...]  [timestamp]
+```
+
+For Telegraf outputs that write textual data (such as `kafka`, `mqtt`, and `file`),
+InfluxDB line protocol was originally the only available output format. But now
+we are normalizing telegraf metric "serializers" into a
+[plugin-like interface](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/tree/master/plugins/serializers)
+across all output plugins that can support it.
+You will be able to identify a plugin that supports different data formats
+by the presence of a `data_format`
+config option, for example, in the `file` output plugin:
+
+```toml
+[[outputs.file]]
+  ## Files to write to, "stdout" is a specially handled file.
+  files = ["stdout"]
+
+  ## 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 = "influx"
+
+  ## Additional configuration options go here
+```
+
+Each data_format has an additional set of configuration options available, which
+I'll go over below.
+
+# Influx:
+
+The `influx` format outputs data as
+[InfluxDB Line Protocol](https://docs.influxdata.com/influxdb/latest/write_protocols/line_protocol_tutorial/).
+This is the recommended format to use unless another format is required for
+interoperability.
+
+### Influx 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 = "influx"
+
+  ## Maximum line length in bytes.  Useful only for debugging.
+  # influx_max_line_bytes = 0
+
+  ## When true, fields will be output in ascending lexical order.  Enabling
+  ## this option will result in decreased performance and is only recommended
+  ## when you need predictable ordering while debugging.
+  # influx_sort_fields = false
+
+  ## When true, Telegraf will output unsigned integers as unsigned values,
+  ## i.e.: `42u`.  You will need a version of InfluxDB supporting unsigned
+  ## integer values.  Enabling this option will result in field type errors if
+  ## existing data has been written.
+  # influx_uint_support = false
+```
+
+# Graphite:
+
+The Graphite data format translates Telegraf metrics into _dot_ buckets. A
+template can be specified for the output of Telegraf metrics into Graphite
+buckets. The default template is:
+
+```
+template = "host.tags.measurement.field"
+```
+
+In the above template, we have four parts:
+
+1. _host_ is a tag key. This can be any tag key that is in the Telegraf
+metric(s). If the key doesn't exist, it will be ignored. If it does exist, the
+tag value will be filled in.
+1. _tags_ is a special keyword that outputs all remaining tag values, separated
+by dots and in alphabetical order (by tag key). These will be filled after all
+tag keys are filled.
+1. _measurement_ is a special keyword that outputs the measurement name.
+1. _field_ is a special keyword that outputs the field name.
+
+Which means the following influx metric -> graphite conversion would happen:
+
+```
+cpu,cpu=cpu-total,dc=us-east-1,host=tars usage_idle=98.09,usage_user=0.89 1455320660004257758
+=>
+tars.cpu-total.us-east-1.cpu.usage_user 0.89 1455320690
+tars.cpu-total.us-east-1.cpu.usage_idle 98.09 1455320690
+```
+
+Fields with string values will be skipped.  Boolean fields will be converted
+to 1 (true) or 0 (false).
+
+### Graphite 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 = "graphite"
+
+  # prefix each graphite bucket
+  prefix = "telegraf"
+  # graphite template
+  template = "host.tags.measurement.field"
+```
+
+# JSON:
+
+The JSON data format serialized Telegraf metrics in json format. The format is:
+
+```json
+{
+   "fields":{
+      "field_1":30,
+      "field_2":4,
+      "field_N":59,
+      "n_images":660
+   },
+   "name":"docker",
+   "tags":{
+      "host":"raynor"
+   },
+   "timestamp":1458229140
+}
+```
+
+### JSON 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"
+  json_timestamp_units = "1ns"
+```
+
+By default, the timestamp that is output in JSON data format serialized Telegraf
+metrics is in seconds. The precision of this timestamp can be adjusted for any output
+by adding the optional `json_timestamp_units` parameter to the configuration for
+that output. This parameter can be used to set the timestamp units to  nanoseconds (`ns`),
+microseconds (`us` or `µs`), milliseconds (`ms`), or seconds (`s`). Note that this
+parameter will be truncated to the nearest power of 10 that, so if the `json_timestamp_units`
+are set to `15ms` the timestamps for the JSON format serialized Telegraf metrics will be
+output in hundredths of a second (`10ms`).

+# Frequently Asked Questions
+
+### Q: How can I monitor the Docker Engine Host from within a container?
+
+You will need to setup several volume mounts as well as some environment
+variables:
+```
+docker run --name telegraf
+	-v /:/hostfs:ro
+	-v /etc:/hostfs/etc:ro
+	-v /proc:/hostfs/proc:ro
+	-v /sys:/hostfs/sys:ro
+	-v /var/run/utmp:/var/run/utmp:ro
+	-e HOST_ETC=/hostfs/etc
+	-e HOST_PROC=/hostfs/proc
+	-e HOST_SYS=/hostfs/sys
+	-e HOST_MOUNT_PREFIX=/hostfs
+	telegraf
+```
+
+
+### Q: Why do I get a "no such host" error resolving hostnames that other
+programs can resolve?
+
+Go uses a pure Go resolver by default for [name resolution](https://golang.org/pkg/net/#hdr-Name_Resolution).
+This resolver behaves differently than the C library functions but is more
+efficient when used with the Go runtime.
+
+If you encounter problems or want to use more advanced name resolution methods
+that are unsupported by the pure Go resolver, you can switch to the cgo
+resolver.
+
+If running manually set:
+```
+export GODEBUG=netdns=cgo
+```
+
+If running as a service add the environment variable to `/etc/default/telegraf`:
+```
+GODEBUG=netdns=cgo
+```
+
+### Q: When will the next version be released?
+
+The latest release date estimate can be viewed on the
+[milestones](https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/milestones) page.

+Telegraf uses the standard package `net/http/pprof`. This package serves via its HTTP server runtime profiling data in the format expected by the pprof visualization tool.
+
+By default, the profiling is turned off.
+
+To enable profiling you need to specify address to config parameter `pprof-addr`, for example:
+
+```
+telegraf --config telegraf.conf --pprof-addr localhost:6060

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

+# Running Telegraf as a Windows Service
+
+Telegraf natively supports running as a Windows Service. Outlined below is are
+the general steps to set it up.
+
+1. Obtain the telegraf windows distribution
+2. Create the directory `C:\Program Files\Telegraf` (if you install in a different
+   location simply specify the `--config` parameter with the desired location)
+3. Place the telegraf.exe and the telegraf.conf config file into `C:\Program Files\Telegraf`
+4. To install the service into the Windows Service Manager, run the following in PowerShell as an administrator (If necessary, you can wrap any spaces in the file paths in double quotes ""):
+
+   ```
+   > C:\"Program Files"\Telegraf\telegraf.exe --service install
+   ```
+
+5. Edit the configuration file to meet your needs
+6. To check that it works, run:
+
+   ```
+   > C:\"Program Files"\Telegraf\telegraf.exe --config C:\"Program Files"\Telegraf\telegraf.conf --test
+   ```
+
+7. To start collecting data, run:
+
+   ```
+   > net start telegraf
+   ```
+
+## Config Directory
+
+You can also specify a `--config-directory` for the service to use:
+1. Create a directory for config snippets: `C:\Program Files\Telegraf\telegraf.d`

+# BasicStats Aggregator Plugin
+
+The BasicStats aggregator plugin give us count,max,min,mean,sum,s2(variance), stdev for a set of values,
+emitting the aggregate every `period` seconds.
+
+### Configuration:
+
+```toml
+# Keep the aggregate basicstats of each metric passing through.
+[[aggregators.basicstats]]
+
+  ## 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
+
+  ## BasicStats Arguments:
+
+  ## Configures which basic stats to push as fields
+  stats = ["count","min","max","mean","stdev","s2","sum"]
+```
+
+- stats
+    - If not specified, then `count`, `min`, `max`, `mean`, `stdev`, and `s2` are aggregated and pushed as fields.  `sum` is not aggregated by default to maintain backwards compatibility.
+    - If empty array, no stats are aggregated
+
+### Measurements & Fields:
+
+- measurement1
+    - field1_count
+    - field1_max
+    - field1_min
+    - field1_mean
+    - field1_sum
+    - field1_s2 (variance)
+    - field1_stdev (standard deviation)
+
+### Tags:
+
+No tags are applied by this aggregator.
+
+### Example Output:
+
+```
+$ telegraf --config telegraf.conf --quiet

+# Histogram Aggregator Plugin
+
+The histogram aggregator plugin creates histograms containing the counts of
+field values within a range.
+
+Values added to a bucket are also added to the larger buckets in the
+distribution.  This creates a [cumulative histogram](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histogram#/media/File:Cumulative_vs_normal_histogram.svg).
+
+Like other Telegraf aggregators, the metric is emitted every `period` seconds.
+Bucket counts however are not reset between periods and will be non-strictly
+increasing while Telegraf is running.
+
+#### Design
+
+Each metric is passed to the aggregator and this aggregator searches
+histogram buckets for those fields, which have been specified in the
+config. If buckets are found, the aggregator will increment +1 to the appropriate
+bucket otherwise it will be added to the `+Inf` bucket.  Every `period`
+seconds this data will be forwarded to the outputs.
+
+The algorithm of hit counting to buckets was implemented on the base
+of the algorithm which is implemented in the Prometheus
+[client](https://github.com/prometheus/client_golang/blob/master/prometheus/histogram.go).
+
+### Configuration
+
+```toml
+# Configuration for aggregate histogram metrics
+[[aggregators.histogram]]
+  ## The period in which to flush 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
+
+  ## Example config that aggregates all fields of the metric.
+  # [[aggregators.histogram.config]]
+  #   ## The set of buckets.
+  #   buckets = [0.0, 15.6, 34.5, 49.1, 71.5, 80.5, 94.5, 100.0]
+  #   ## The name of metric.
+  #   measurement_name = "cpu"
+
+  ## Example config that aggregates only specific fields of the metric.
+  # [[aggregators.histogram.config]]
+  #   ## The set of buckets.
+  #   buckets = [0.0, 10.0, 20.0, 30.0, 40.0, 50.0, 60.0, 70.0, 80.0, 90.0, 100.0]
+  #   ## The name of metric.
+  #   measurement_name = "diskio"
+  #   ## The concrete fields of metric
+  #   fields = ["io_time", "read_time", "write_time"]
+```
+
+The user is responsible for defining the bounds of the histogram bucket as
+well as the measurement name and fields to aggregate.
+
+Each histogram config section must contain a `buckets` and `measurement_name`
+option.  Optionally, if `fields` is set only the fields listed will be
+aggregated.  If `fields` is not set all fields are aggregated.
+
+The `buckets` option contains a list of floats which specify the bucket
+boundaries.  Each float value defines the inclusive upper bound of the bucket.
+The `+Inf` bucket is added automatically and does not need to be defined.
+
+### Measurements & Fields:
+
+The postfix `bucket` will be added to each field key.
+
+- measurement1
+    - field1_bucket
+    - field2_bucket
+
+### Tags:
+
+All measurements are given the tag `le`. This tag has the border value of
+bucket. It means that the metric value is less than or equal to the value of
+this tag.  For example, let assume that we have the metric value 10 and the
+following buckets: [5, 10, 30, 70, 100]. Then the tag `le` will have the value
+10, because the metrics value is passed into bucket with right border value
+`10`.
+
+### Example Output:
+
+```
+cpu,cpu=cpu1,host=localhost,le=0.0 usage_idle_bucket=0i 1486998330000000000
+cpu,cpu=cpu1,host=localhost,le=10.0 usage_idle_bucket=0i 1486998330000000000

+### Sample Queries:
+
+This section should contain some useful InfluxDB queries that can be used to
+get started with the plugin or to generate dashboards.  For each query listed,
+describe at a high level what data is returned.
+
+Get the max, mean, and min for the measurement in the last hour:
+```
+SELECT max(field1), mean(field1), min(field1) FROM measurement1 WHERE tag1=bar AND time > now() - 1h GROUP BY tag
+```
 
 ### Example Output:
 
-Give an example `-test` output here
+This section shows example output in Line Protocol format.  You can often use
+`telegraf --input-filter <plugin-name> --test` or use the `file` output to get
+this information.
 
 ```
-$ ./telegraf -config telegraf.conf -input-filter example -test
 measurement1,tag1=foo,tag2=bar field1=1i,field2=2.1 1453831884664956455

+# 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 consume.
+  ## 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_INPUT.md
+  data_format = "influx"
