Support output formats other than protobuf over Kafka

Open sjwang90 opened this issue 5 years ago • 0 comments

Background/Use Case

InfluxData's Telegraf project received a request (influxdata/telegraf#8425) to integrated into vFlow for IPFIX/NetFlow support. Currently Telegraf does not support binary (ex: protobuf) formats.

Feature Request

Request for vFlow to add one of the following output formats to ease the integration with Telegraf.

InfluxDB Line Protocol
Carbon2
Graphite
JSON
Prometheus
SplunkMetric
Wavefront
ServiceNow Metrics

Also it may look like vFlow may not be meant to be embedded in other programs as there don't appear to be docs for a stable library API for other programs use.
