Way to pass OUTPUT context to the function FLBPluginFlush ?

Open keyolk opened this issue 8 years ago • 8 comments

I have problem that supporting multiple OUPUT target using custom plugin. From that it needs to distinguish caller of FLBPluginFlush.

from C written plugin source code, I can see the function "flb_output_set_context"

Is there similar method on golang ? Or schedule to support ?

@keyolk there is no API for that at the moment. Make sense to add it. How urgent it is ?

@edsiper Thanks.

If it takes long time. It would be better to start changing my plugin to C based thing. : ( Hope it supports the API soon.

what kind of output plugin are you implementing ?

@edsiper I have to send my logs through raw TCP based protocol. Now I do copy&modify C based fluentd output plugin. : )

I also need this. I have multiple [OUTPUT] sections for the same plugin, intending to send some messages to one destination and others to a different destination. Right now I don't see a way of telling what messages are intended to go to what destination when my FLBPluginFlush is called. Perhaps passing in the ctx to FLBPluginFlush?
