Re: [heka] Timestamp Conversion

Just remove the capture group and the timestamp variable will contain the value you want. local timestamp = l.P"[" * dt.build_strftime_grammar("%a %b %d %H:%M:%S.%s %Y") / dt.time_to_ns * "]" if timestamp then msg.Timestamp = timestamp end Trink On Sat, Mar 14, 2015 at 8:58 PM, Madhukar Thota w
