    Collectd

    The collectd input plugin allows you to receive datagrams from collectd.

    " class="reference-link">Configuration Parameters

    The plugin supports the following configuration parameters:

    Key Description Default
    Address Set the address to listen to 0.0.0.0
    Port Set the port to listen to 25826
    TypesDB Set the data specification file /usr/share/collectd/types.db

    " class="reference-link">Configuration Examples

    Here is a basic configuration example.

    1. [INPUT]
    2.     Name         collectd
    3.     Address      0.0.0.0
    4.     Port         25826
    5.     TypesDB      /usr/share/collectd/types.db,/etc/collectd/custom.db
    7. [OUTPUT]
    8.     Name   stdout
    9.     Match  *

    With this configuration, fluent-bit listens to 0.0.0.0:25826, and outputs incoming datagram packets to stdout.

    You must set the same types.db files that your collectd server uses. Otherwise, fluent-bit may not be able to interpret the payload properly.
