Description¶
Note
This directive is not supported with liblognorm 2.0.2 and earlier.
When processing json-file logs, these are the lognorm rules to use to match the filename and extract metadata. The default value is:
rule=:/var/log/containers/%pod_name:char-to:_%_%namespace_name:char-to:_%_%contai\
ner_name_and_id:char-to:.%.log
Note
In the above rules, the slashes \
ending each line indicate
line wrapping - they are not part of the rule.
Action usage¶
action(type="mmkubernetes" filenameRules="...")
