Defined Type: logstash::filter::syslog_pri

Defined in:
manifests/filter/syslog_pri.pp

Overview

Define: logstash::filter::syslog_pri

Filter plugin for logstash to parse the PRI field from the front of a
Syslog (RFC3164) message.  If no priority is set, it will default to
13 (per RFC).  This filter is based on the original syslog.rb code
shipped with logstash.

Parameters

add_field

If this filter is successful, add any arbitrary fields to this event. Example: filter { syslog_pri { add_field => [ “sample”, “Hello world, from %@source” ] } } On success, the syslog_pri plugin will then add field ‘sample’ with the value above and the %@source piece replaced with that value from the event. Value type is hash Default value: {} This variable is optional

add_tag

If this filter is successful, add arbitrary tags to the event. Tags can be dynamic and include parts of the event using the %field syntax. Example: filter { syslog_pri { add_tag => [ “foo_%somefield” ] } } If the event has field “somefield” == “hello” this filter, on success, would add a tag “foo_hello” Value type is array Default value: [] This variable is optional

exclude_tags

Only handle events without any of these tags. Note this check is additional to type and tags. Value type is array Default value: [] This variable is optional

facility_labels

Labels for facility levels. This comes from RFC3164. Value type is array Default value: [“kernel”, “user-level”, “mail”, “daemon”, “security/authorization”, “syslogd”, “line printer”, “network news”, “uucp”, “clock”, “security/authorization”, “ftp”, “ntp”, “log audit”, “log alert”, “clock”, “local0”, “local1”, “local2”, “local3”, “local4”, “local5”, “local6”, “local7”] This variable is optional

remove_tag

If this filter is successful, remove arbitrary tags from the event. Tags can be dynamic and include parts of the event using the %field syntax. Example: filter { syslog_pri { remove_tag => [ “foo_%somefield” ] } } If the event has field “somefield” == “hello” this filter, on success, would remove the tag “foo_hello” if it is present Value type is array Default value: [] This variable is optional

severity_labels

Labels for severity levels. This comes from RFC3164. Value type is array Default value: [“emergency”, “alert”, “critical”, “error”, “warning”, “notice”, “informational”, “debug”] This variable is optional

syslog_pri_field_name

Name of field which passes in the extracted PRI part of the syslog message Value type is string Default value: “syslog_pri” This variable is optional

tags

Only handle events with all of these tags. Note that if you specify a type, the event must also match that type. Optional. Value type is array Default value: [] This variable is optional

type

The type to act on. If a type is given, then this filter will only act on messages with the same type. See any input plugin’s “type” attribute for more. Optional. Value type is string Default value: “” This variable is optional

use_labels

set the status to experimental/beta/stable Add human-readable names after parsing severity and facility from PRI Value type is boolean Default value: true This variable is optional

order

The order variable decides in which sequence the filters are loaded. Value type is number Default value: 10 This variable is optional

instances

Array of instance names to which this define is. Value type is array Default value: [ ‘array’ ] This variable is optional

Extra information

This define is created based on LogStash version 1.1.12
