# igloo Input Plugin
|
|
|
|
The igloo plugin "tails" a logfile and parses each log message.
|
|
|
|
By default, the igloo plugin acts like the following unix tail command:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
tail -F --lines=0 myfile.log
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- `-F` means that it will follow the _name_ of the given file, so
|
|
that it will be compatible with log-rotated files, and that it will retry on
|
|
inaccessible files.
|
|
- `--lines=0` means that it will start at the end of the file (unless
|
|
the `from_beginning` option is set).
|
|
|
|
see http://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/tail.1.html for more details.
|
|
|
|
### Configuration:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
```
