--[[ This Lua script provides 3 interfaces or callbacks for filter_lua: - cb_print => Print records to the standard output - cb_drop => Drop the record - cb_replace => Replace record content with a new table The key inside each function is to do a proper handling of the return values. Each function must return 3 values: return code, timestamp, record where: - code : -1 record must be deleted 0 record not modified, keep the original 1 record was modified, replace timestamp and record. 2 record was modified, replace record and keep timestamp. - timestamp: Unix timestamp with precision (double) - record : Table with multiple key/val Uppon return if code == 1 (modified), then filter_lua plugin will replace the original timestamp and record with the returned values. If code == 0 the original record is kept otherwise if code == -1, the original record will be deleted. ]] -- Print record to the standard output function cb_print(tag, timestamp, record) output = tag ..
