Hi!
I am trying to put up a proof of concept where I work, to convince them to use heka. However, I have hit a small snag. For our limited scale test, we use Elasticsearch for storing our data. However, ES 2.0 has added a limitation, that you are not allowed to use dots (.) in field names. This gives me an issue, since the "StatsAccumInput" filter outputs fields with dots. I would like it to be in fields for use with Kibana. I have added a local "fix" in my Heka server to the Encocer, where I replace all dots in the field names. However, a more easily deployable solution would be, if I could simply have a Lua Filter that did this for me. My Lua skills unfortunately aren't as good as my Go skills. My thought was that this might be a trivial task for someone out there. You would help me a *lot*, if you could give me a base filter that outputs the same messages as it gets, but replaces all "." in field names with something else, like "-". I hope you will be able to help me! Regards, Klaus Post http://www.klauspost.com
