Mike Percy created FLUME-1735:
---------------------------------
Summary: Add support for a plugins.d directory
Key: FLUME-1735
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-1735
Project: Flume
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Mike Percy
Fix For: v1.4.0
It would be nice to have a directory, called something like plugins.d, which
had the following structure:
{noformat}
flume/
bin/
conf/
lib/
plugins.d/
custom-source-1/
custom-source-1-base.jar
custom-source-1-ext.jar
custom-interceptor-2/
custom-interceptor-2-main.jar
custom-interceptor-2-lib.jar
{noformat}
This would make it easy for users to easily install new plugins (sources,
sinks, interceptors, etc) and in the case of some conflict, they can easily be
differentiated and moved out of the include path. This helps with management
and debugging of plugin issues, and avoids the current requirement for users to
add these plugins to their FLUME_CLASSPATH.
