Converting string to int

[gavmckee80]

@karimra

Can you help with this question

Sample data

[{"name":"intf_admin_state","timestamp":1753640825630398022,"tags":{"interface_name":"Ethernet66","source":"txdr-iah13a-r304-lab-prod-roce-leaf-21","subscription-name":"intf_admin_state"},"values":{"admin-status":"1"}}]
[{"name":"intf_admin_state","timestamp":1753640825586605632,"tags":{"interface_name":"Management1","source":"txdr-iah13a-r304-lab-prod-roce-leaf-21","subscription-name":"intf_admin_state"},"values":{"admin-status":"1"}}]

For some reason I can trim the opencofig path , and apply this bounce map procesor , but it just won't convert the admin-status string to an int , when I write this to prom it not happy . Can you help me understand if the processor is correct ?

This works in my environment

  # processor name
  convert-int-processor:
    # processor type
    event-convert:
      # list of regex to be matched with the values names
      value-names:

            old: "up"
            new: "1"
        - replace:
            apply-on: "value"
            old: "down"
            new: "0"

@gavmckee80 the event-strings processor doesn't have a convert transform. Prometheus output (both pull-based and remote write) should auto convert strings to float when possible. What kind of error do you see on Prom side ?
