This output lets you send metrics, annotations, and alerts toLibrato based on Logstash events
This is VERY experimental and inefficient right now.
This plugin supports the following configuration options plus the Common Options described later.

Your Librato accountusually an email address
{}
AnnotationsRegisters an annotation with LibratoThe only required field is title
and name
.start_time
and end_time
will be set to event.get("@timestamp").to_i
You can add any other optional annotation values as well.All values will be passed through event.sprintf
Example:
{ "title" => "Logstash event on %{host}" "name" => "logstash_stream" }or
{ "title" => "Logstash event" "description" => "%{message}" "name" => "logstash_stream"}
Your Librato API Token
"10"
Batch sizeNumber of events to batch up before sending to Librato.
{}
CountersSend data to Librato as a counter
Example:
{ "value" => "1" "source" => "%{host}" "name" => "messages_received"}
Additionally, you can override the measure_time
for the event. Must be a unix timestamp:
{ "value" => "1" "source" => "%{host}" "name" => "messages_received" "measure_time" => "%{my_unixtime_field}" }Default is to use the event's timestamp
{}
GaugesSend data to Librato as a gauge
Example:
{ "value" => "%{bytes_received}" "source" => "%{host}" "name" => "apache_bytes" }Additionally, you can override the `measure_time` for the event. Must be a unix timestamp:
{ "value" => "%{bytes_received}" "source" => "%{host}" "name" => "apache_bytes" "measure_time" => "%{my_unixtime_field} }Default is to use the event's timestamp
The following configuration options are supported by all output plugins:
"plain"
The codec used for output data. Output codecs are a convenient method for encoding your data before it leaves the output without needing a separate filter in your Logstash pipeline.
true
Disable or enable metric logging for this specific plugin instance.By default we record all the metrics we can, but you can disable metrics collectionfor a specific plugin.
Add a unique ID
to the plugin configuration. If no ID is specified, Logstash will generate one.It is strongly recommended to set this ID in your configuration. This is particularly usefulwhen you have two or more plugins of the same type. For example, if you have 2 librato outputs.Adding a named ID in this case will help in monitoring Logstash when using the monitoring APIs.
output { librato { id => "my_plugin_id" }}
