| parameter | description | default |
|---|---|---|
| key | The key for part of multiline log | |
| separator | The separator of lines | "\n" |
| n_lines | The number of lines. This is exclusive with multiline_start_regex |
nil |
| multiline_start_regexp | The regexp to match beginning of multiline. This is exclusive with n_lines |
nil |
| multiline_end_regexp | The regexp to match ending of multiline.This is exclusive with n_lines |
nil |
| continuous_line_regexp | The regexp to match continuous lines.This is exclusive with n_lines |
nil |
| stream_identity_key | The key to determine which stream an event belongs to | nil |
| flush_interval | The number of seconds after which the last received event log will be flushed.If specified 0, wait for next line forever | 60 |
| timeout_label | The label name to handle events caused by timeout | nil |
| use_first_timestamp | Use timestamp of first record when buffer is flushed | false |
| partial_key | The field name that is the reference to concatenate records | nil |
| partial_value | The value stored in the field specified by partial_key that represent partial log | nil |
| keep_partial_key | If true, keep partial_key in concatenated records | false |
| use_partial_metadata | Use partial metadata to concatenate multiple records | false |
| keep_partial_metadata | If true, keep partial metadata | false |
| partial_metadata_format | Input format of the partial metadata (fluentd or journald docker log driver) ( docker-fluentd, docker-journald, docker-journald-lowercase)Configure based on the input plugin, that is used. The docker fluentd and journald log drivers are behaving differently, so the plugin needs to know, what to look for. Use docker-journald-lowercase, if you have fields_lowercase true in the journald source config |
docker-fluentd |
| use_partial_cri_logtag | bool (optional) | Use cri log tag to concatenate multiple records |
| partial_cri_logtag_key | string (optional) | The key name that is referred to concatenate records on cri log |
| partial_cri_stream_key | string (optional) | The key name that is referred to detect stream name on cri log |
Every 10 events will be concatenated into one event.

</filter>(Docker v19.03+) Handle Docker logs splitted in several parts (using use_partial_metadata), and do not add new line between parts.

</filter>(Docker v20.10+) Handle Docker logs splitted in several parts (using use_partial_metadata), and do not add new line between parts.
Docker v20.10 improved partial message handling by adding better metadata in the journald log driver, this works now similarily to the fluentd log driver, but requires one additional setting
<filter>
