Events-processing output

Internal

• events-processing

Overview

The default procedure to handle event streams: the procedure inspects the events and sends their string representation to the configured output stream.

The procedure can be configured with an output format.

One way to provide the format specification is on command-line: format specification arguments follow the "-o" marker and end either with the last argument or when a higher level argument (file, for example) is encountered.

some-parser [output] -o <output-format> ./file.txt

cat ./file.txt | some-parser [output] -o <output-format>

Output Format

The output format can be used to:

• Restrict the output to specific event properties.
• Restrict the output to specific event types.
