Thanks, Jarek! Those are only useful if I'm writing a Go plug-in, correct? Is there any way I can utilize such fancy time formatting libraries with a Lua encoder/decoder?
My basic problem in this situation is I'm reading logs with unusual timestamp formats and sending them to services that require unusual (but different!) timestamp formats. I thought it would be a piece of cake to do this with Lua, but not being able to take advantage of existing time/date libraries is making it seem much more complex. At this point, since I'm interested in digging more into Go anyway, maybe it's worthwhile to just write my encoders and decoders in Go. Looking at the Go plug-ins related to Elasticsearch, however, did make me think that the level of effort would still be high. -Ali On Mon, Jun 29, 2015 at 5:52 PM Jarek Śmiejczak <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Ali, > > In latest stable version, heka uses "time" package and "Format" method to > format strings with timestamp: > > https://github.com/mozilla-services/heka/blob/versions/0.9/plugins/elasticsearch/encoders.go#L284 > > https://github.com/mozilla-services/heka/blob/versions/0.9/plugins/elasticsearch/encoders.go#L410 > > > That behaviour has been changed recently on dev and will be released with > 0.10.0, heka started using github.com/cactus/gostrftime library to format > timestamp string: > > https://github.com/mozilla-services/heka/blob/versions/0.10/plugins/elasticsearch/encoders.go#L313 > > However, initial load from Nanoseconds to time.Time struct is still done > the same way. > > > > > On Mon, Jun 29, 2015 at 7:26 PM, Ali <[email protected]> wrote: > >> Hi, all. >> >> I'm writing a custom output for Solr.
