How can I set the _type from the tag? #37

Closed marksawersw closed 6 years ago

marksawersw commented 6 years ago

Hello.

I'd like to send in the _type dynamically based on the tag, as in:

<match **>
@type aws-elasticsearch-service
type_name ${tag}
...
</match>

but literal ${tag} shows in the _type field kibana.

Are there any variables that work there?

Also tried setting the following:

include_tag_key true
tag_key "_type"

but that didn't work.

Suggestions?

Thanks! Mark

Hi. This is fluent-plugin-elasticsearch plugin's issue. Could you report your issue in fluent-plugin-elasticsearch?

marksawersw commented 6 years ago

I see it's been raised in issue 53 and closed with recommendation to use fluent-plugin-forest. I'll try that.

cosmo0920 commented 6 years ago

For v0.12, it is correct. For v0.14, this should treat as a bug of fluent-plugin-elasticsearch.

Ok I've opened Issue 330 on the base project.
