Output Section

1 minute read

The [OUTPUT] section specifies the configuration for an output plugin. In this configuration, there is a single output plugin which redirects logs to Fluent Bit’s stdout.

Note: This is done for demonstration purposes only—in a practical scenario we would have sent it to S3, Elasticsearch, or some other destination.

[OUTPUT]
   name          stdout
   match         dummy
  • name: Specifies the output plugin name (stdout).

  • match: Matches the tag (dummy) to send the filtered input data tagged with dummy to stdout.

Check out the official documentation for more information about the stdout plugin.
