# This configuration file for Fluentd is used
# to watch changes to Docker log files that live in the
# directory /var/lib/docker/containers/ and are symbolically
# linked to from the /var/log/containers directory using names that capture the
# pod name and container name. These logs are then submitted to
# Google Cloud Logging which assumes the installation of the cloud-logging plug-in.
#
# Example
# =======
# A line in the Docker log file might look like this JSON:
#
# {"log":"2014/09/25 21:15:03 Got request with path wombat\\n",
# "stream":"stderr",
# "time":"2014-09-25T21:15:03.499185026Z"}
#
# The original tag is derived from the log file's location.
# For example a Docker container's logs might be in the directory:
# /var/lib/docker/containers/997599971ee6366d4a5920d25b79286ad45ff37a74494f262e3bc98d909d0a7b
# and in the file:
# 997599971ee6366d4a5920d25b79286ad45ff37a74494f262e3bc98d909d0a7b-json.log
# where 997599971ee6... is the Docker ID of the running container.
# The Kubernetes kubelet makes a symbolic link to this file on the host
# machine in the /var/log/containers directory which includes the pod name,
# the namespace name and the Kubernetes container name:
# synthetic-logger-0.25lps-pod_default_synth-lgr-997599971ee6366d4a5920d25b79286ad45ff37a74494f262e3bc98d909d0a7b.log
# ->
# /var/lib/docker/containers/997599971ee6366d4a5920d25b79286ad45ff37a74494f262e3bc98d909d0a7b/997599971ee6366d4a5920d25b79286ad45ff37a74494f262e3bc98d909d0a7b-json.log
# The /var/log directory on the host is mapped to the /var/log directory in the container
# running this instance of Fluentd and we end up collecting the file:
# /var/log/containers/synthetic-logger-0.25lps-pod_default_synth-lgr-997599971ee6366d4a5920d25b79286ad45ff37a74494f262e3bc98d909d0a7b.log
# This results in the tag:
# var.log.containers.synthetic-logger-0.25lps-pod_default_synth-lgr-997599971ee6366d4a5920d25b79286ad45ff37a74494f262e3bc98d909d0a7b.log
# where 'synthetic-logger-0.25lps-pod' is the pod name, 'default' is the
# namespace name, 'synth-lgr' is the container name and '997599971ee6..' is
# the container ID.
# The record reformer is used to extract pod_name, namespace_name and
# container_name from the tag and set them in a local_resource_id in the
# format of:
# 'k8s_container.<NAMESPACE_NAME>.<POD_NAME>.<CONTAINER_NAME>'.
# The reformer also changes the tags to 'stderr' or 'stdout' based on the
# value of 'stream'.
# local_resource_id is later used by google_cloud plugin to determine the
# monitored resource to ingest logs against.
# Json Log Example:
# {"log":"[info:2016-02-16T16:04:05.930-08:00] Some log text here\n","stream":"stdout","time":"2016-02-17T00:04:05.931087621Z"}
# CRI Log Example:
# 2016-02-17T00:04:05.931087621Z stdout F [info:2016-02-16T16:04:05.930-08:00] Some log text here
