Split json record in multiple records?
Hi,
I'm experimenting with reading from an Azure eventhub with im_kafka
. The eventhub receives security data from various security related azure components.
The im_kafka
module works great after i found out that the username should be $connectionstring ;).
The output of the eventhub is a json dict with an array, like this: { records: [ {id: 1, msg: "xyz", etc},{id: 2, msg: "abc", etc}]}
.
I tried to use extract_json("$.records")
but that does not iterate over the array.
I also made a python script that writes the logs to a file, one line at a time:
from confluent_kafka import Consumer
import json
c = Consumer({....})
while True:
msg = c.poll(1.0)
eventhub_records = json.loads(msg.value())
for record in eventhub_records['records']:
print(json.dumps(record))
This works great, but i'd like to have something like this in nxlog. Can this be done, or does nxlog not support to split a single record into multiple records?
Thanks!
