Minor Description
The wildcard processing in Logfeeder is carried out only for the last file component in the log path. For a few services, where there are multiple log folders and log files from each of the folders is desired to be parsed in Logsearch UI, the lack of a wildcard processing for the previous portions becomes an issue. Hence, introducing wildcard processing for the log directory part of the "path" in the Logfeeder's input for the service will help resolve this issue.
The idea is if we have a folder pattern, we will craete a thread group, and there will be different threads for every matching input (now only for tail file)
Features (new input block settings):
- path_update_interval_min: the period in minutes for checking new files (default: 5, based on detach values, its possible that a new input wont be monitored)
- detach_interval_min: the period in minutes for checking which files are too old (default: 300)
- detach_time_min: the period in minutes when we flag a file is too old (default: 2000)
- if a path contains a * before the last /, then logfeeder will know that the inputs should handled in a thread group, not in a standalone thread
