Parsers

When reading data from multiple formats, you may need to parse that data to either filter out based on certain characteristics or make the data more accessible to your particular backend observability system. Calyptia Core uses parsers to let you add schema to any type of data.

Default pipeline configuration parsers

Calyptia Core enables a set of default parsers to be used across the different pipeline configuration sections.

Each pipeline creates file name parsers that default to the current fluent-bit default set of parsers, specified as follows:

Update the parsers file

If you need to add a custom parser, update the parser file by going to Advanced Settings and updating the Parsers file. Start by deleting the current Parsers file, and then upload a new parsers file that includes the specific parsers you want to use.

Calyptia CLI

calyptia get pipeline_file --pipeline PIPELINE_NAME --name parsers --only-contents > parsers.conf

From here, edit the file to add the new parsers and update the parsers file:

calyptia update pipeline_file --pipeline PIPELINE_NAME --file ./parsers.conf

If you need to validate whether your parser will function as needed, use the Calyptia Cloud Regex page to ensure the parsers are performing as needed.
