Fluentd plugin for reading events from stdin

Reading events from stdin for testing or small bulk loading.

Installation

Use RubyGems:

gem install fluent-plugin-stdin

Configuration

<source>
  type stdin

  # Input pattern. It depends on Parser plugin
  format none

  # Optional. default is stdin.events
  tag test.input
</source>

After that, you can send logs to fluentd via stdin like below.

cat /path/to/logs | fluentd -c stdin.conf

This plugin works on only non-daemon mode.
