Filebeat 5.0输出到Kafka的多个主题

Question

I installed Filebeat 5.0 on my app server and have 3 Filebeat prospectors, each of the prospector are pointing to different log paths and output to one kafka topic called myapp_applog and everything works fine.

My Filebeat output configuration to one topic - Working

output.kafka:
    # initial brokers for reading cluster metadata
    hosts: ["broker.1.ip.address:9092", "broker.2.ip.address:9092", "broker.3.ip.address:9092"]

    # message topic selection + partitioning
    topic: 'myapp_applog'
    partition.round_robin:
      reachable_only: false

    required_acks: 1
    compression: gzip
    max_message_bytes: 1000000

What I want to do is send each of the log files to seperate topics based on a condition see documentation section on topics . I have tried to do it but no data is been sent to any of the topics. Does anyone know why my condition does not match or it is correct. I can seem to find an example on how to correctly use the "topics topic condition".

Here is my kafka output to muliple topics configuration.

Not Working

output.kafka:
    # initial brokers for reading cluster metadata
    hosts: ["broker.1.ip.address:9092", "broker.2.ip.address:9092", "broker.3.ip.address:9092"]

    # message topic selection + partitioning
    topics:
      - topic: 'myapp_applog'
        when: 
          equals:
            document_type: applog_myappapi
      - topic: 'myapp_applog_stats'
        when:
          equals:
            document_type: applog_myappapi_stats
      - topic: 'myapp_elblog'
        when:
          equals:
            document_type: elblog_myappapi
    partition.round_robin:
      reachable_only: false

    required_acks: 1
    compression: gzip
    max_message_bytes: 1000000

Here is full filebeat.yml configuration file.

Answer 1

I've got the same problem and deal with it by define output as:

topics:
  - topic: '%{[type]}'
use_type: true

and as input you only have to set in document_type: kaffka's topic

• input_type: log paths:

  • /path/to/log/file document_type: "you'r kaffka's topic 1"

• input_type: log paths:

  • /path/to/another/log/file

  document_type: "you'r another kaffka's topic 1"

Answer 2

Input:

- type: log
  fields:
    kafka_topic: "my_topic_1"

- type: log
  fields:
    kafka_topic: "my_topic_2"

Output:

output.kafka:
  hosts: ["mybroker:9092"]
  topic: '%{[fields.kafka_topic]}'

Above example shows 2 log inputs and 2 kafka topic outputs
