Collectd

The collectd input plugin allows you to receive datagrams from collectd service.

Configuration Parameters

The plugin supports the following configuration parameters:

Key Description Default
Listen Set the address to listen to 0.0.0.0
Port Set the port to listen to 25826
TypesDB Set the data specification file /usr/share/collectd/types.db
Threaded Indicates whether to run this input in its own thread. false

Configuration Examples

Here is a basic configuration example.

[INPUT]
    Name         collectd
    Listen       0.0.0.0
    Port         25826
    TypesDB      /usr/share/collectd/types.db,/etc/collectd/custom.db

[OUTPUT]
    Name   stdout
    Match  *

With this configuration, Fluent Bit listens to 0.0.0.0:25826, and outputs incoming datagram packets to stdout.

You must set the same types.db files that your collectd server uses. Otherwise, Fluent Bit may not be able to interpret the payload properly.
