The examples on this page provide common methods to receive data with Fluent Bit and send logs to Panther via an or via an .

In the examples below, log_level trace and output stdout are used to test and debug the configurations. These should be removed once the Fluent Bit configuration is working as expected.

Dummy to a Panther HTTP source

This example uses to spawn one event per second. This is useful for testing output configurations and getting started with Fluent Bit.

Input:

Output:

[SERVICE]
    log_level trace

[INPUT]
    Name dummy
    Dummy {"message": "sample json message", "type": "json"}

[OUTPUT]
    Name       http
    Match      *
    Host       logs.{REDACTED}.runpanther.net
    Port       443
    URI        /http/{REDACTED}
    Header     x-sender-header {REDACTED}
    Format     json_lines
    TLS        On
    TLS.Verify On
    Json_Date_Key false

[OUTPUT]
    Name   stdout
    Match  *

This configuration results in the following:

# Input configuration:
Dummy {"message": "sample json message", "type": "json"}
    
# Ouput of raw event pre Panther parsing:
{"message": "sample json message", "type": "json"}

Tail local file to Amazon S3

In the OUTPUT plugin configuration:

  • Usejson_date_key false to disable the appended date key.

  • Use log_key log to specify Fluent Bit to only send the raw log.

With these two settings, the raw input from the log file is sent without Fluent Bit's appended JSON fields.

[SERVICE]
    log_level trace

[INPUT]
    Name       tail
    Tag        wifi_log
    Path       /var/log/wifi.log

[OUTPUT]
    Name       s3
    Match      *
    Region     {REGION}
    Bucket     {BUCKET_NAME}
    Compression gzip
    json_date_key false
    upload_timeout 5m
    log_key log

[OUTPUT]
    Name   stdout
    Match  *

This configuration results in the following:

TCP to Amazon S3

This example uses the TCP input plugin. This plugin is useful if you need to ship syslog or JSON events to Fluent Bit over the network. The TCP plugin takes the raw payload it receives and forwards it to the Output configuration.

[SERVICE]
    log_level trace

[INPUT]
    Name       tcp
    Tag        tcp_log
    Listen     0.0.0.0
    Port       5140
    Format     none

[OUTPUT]
    Name       s3
    Match      *
    Region     {REGION}
    Bucket     {BUCKET_NAME}
    Compression gzip
    json_date_key false
    upload_timeout 5m
    log_key log

    # Retrieving AWS Creds - https://github.com/fluent/fluent-bit-docs/blob/43c4fe134611da471e706b0edb2f9acd7cdfdbc3/administration/aws-credentials.md

[OUTPUT]
    Name   stdout
    Match  *

This configuration results in the following:

# Input command:
%echo "message from local echo" | nc 127.0.0.1 5140
%echo "message from local echo" | nc 127.0.0.1 5140
