> Right now the multiplexing channel selector treats all channels as required
> channels. There should be a simple provision where some channel can be marked
> optional so that a failure in publishing the event to that particular channel
> does not cause the entire request to fail. For example, the following
> configuration:
> agent.sources.foo.selector.mapping.foo = ch1 ch2
> agent.sources.foo.selector.mapping.bar = ch2 ch3
> agent.sources.foo.selector.optional.channels = ch2
> Would imply that for mapping value "foo", ch1 is a required channel whereas
> ch2 is an optional channel. Similarly, for mapping "bar', ch3 is a required
> channel but ch2 is optional.
> The implementation in the patch is:
> I did not implement it exactly as defined in the Jira, instead:
> agent.sources.foo.selector.mapping.zebra = ch2
> agent.sources.foo.selector.optional.zebra = ch1
> Therefore the behavior of "mapping" keyword does not change, instead the
> optional keyword simply adds more channels as optional channels. If "mapping"
> keyword does not exist for the header or has no values, then the event is
> written to default channel and optional channels. If optional is empty then
> even is simply written to channels specificied by "mapping"(if empty, then to
> default channels). Basically mapping and optional means: write to channels
> specified by "mapping" and if available, to the ones specified by "optional."
> If mapping is empty write to default, and optionally to optional channels.
