# Date Processor Plugin
|
|
|
|
Use the `date` processor to add the metric timestamp as a human readable tag.
|
|
|
|
A common use is to add a tag that can be used to group by month or year.
|
|
|
|
A few example usecases include:
|
|
1) consumption data for utilities on per month basis
|
|
2) bandwith capacity per month
|
|
3) compare energy production or sales on a yearly or monthly basis
|
|
|
|
### Configuration
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[[processors.date]]
|
|
## New tag to create
|
|
tag_key = "month"
|
|
|
|
## Date format string, must be a representation of the Go "reference time"
|
|
## which is "Mon Jan 2 15:04:05 -0700 MST 2006".
|
|
date_format = "Jan"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Example
|
|
|
|
```diff
|
|
- throughput lower=10i,upper=1000i,mean=500i 1560540094000000000
|
|
+ throughput,month=Jun lower=10i,upper=1000i,mean=500i 1560540094000000000
|
|
```
