Collectd

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

Configuration Parameters

The plugin supports the following configuration parameters:
Key
Description
Default
Listen
Set the address to listen to
0.0.0.0
Port
Set the port to listen to
25826
TypesDB

Configuration Examples

Here is a basic configuration example.
[INPUT]
Name collectd
Listen 0.0.0.0
Port 25826
TypesDB /usr/share/collectd/types.db,/etc/collectd/custom.db
[OUTPUT]
Name stdout
Match *
With this configuration, Calyptia 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, Calyptia Fluent Bit may not be able to interpret the payload properly.
