I’ve since written a full blog on this particular Single Message Transform. It can be found at See also https://rmoff.net/2020/12/17/twelve-days-of-smt-day-8-timestampconverter/
Logstash is a free and open server-side data processing pipeline that ingests data from a multitude of sources, transforms it, and then sends it to your favorite "stash."
This section describes how one can use it on UNIX to migrate data from a PostgreSQL database to elasticsearch.
The Synaptics fingerprint sensor (06cb:009a) present on my T480 is not supported by libfprint
and fprintd
as it requires a non-free binary blob. uunicorn created open-fprintd
, a replacement for fprintd
, that allows for loading of binary blobs. In conjunction with their python-validity
driver we are able to make use of the inbuilt fingerprint reader. The following instructions were tested against Fedora Linux 35.
sudo dnf copr enable tigro/python-validity
sudo dnf install open-fprintd fprintd-clients fprintd-clients-pam python3-validity
