Telegraf contains many general purpose plugins that support parsing input data
|
||
|
|
using a configurable parser into [metrics][]. This allows, for example, the
|
||
|
|
`kafka_consumer` input plugin to process messages in either InfluxDB Line
|
||
|
|
Protocol or in JSON format. Telegraf supports the following input data formats:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- [InfluxDB Line Protocol](/telegraf/v1.14/data_formats/input/influx/)
|
||
|
|
- [collectd](/telegraf/v1.14/data_formats/input/collectd/)
|
||
|
|
- [CSV](/telegraf/v1.14/data_formats/input/csv/)
|
||
|
|
- [Dropwizard](/telegraf/v1.14/data_formats/input/dropwizard/)
|
||
|
|
- [Graphite](/telegraf/v1.14/data_formats/input/graphite/)
|
||
|
|
- [Grok](/telegraf/v1.14/data_formats/input/grok/)
|
||
|
|
- [JSON](/telegraf/v1.14/data_formats/input/json/)
|
||
|
|
- [logfmt](/telegraf/v1.14/data_formats/input/logfmt/)
|
||
|
|
- [Nagios](/telegraf/v1.14/data_formats/input/nagios/)
|
||
|
|
- [Value](/telegraf/v1.14/data_formats/input/value/), ie: 45 or "booyah"
|
||
|
|
- [Wavefront](/telegraf/v1.14/data_formats/input/wavefront/)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Any input plugin containing the `data_format` option can use it to select the
|
||
|
|
desired parser:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```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
|
||
|
|

|
data_format = "json"
|
||
|

```
