- perl
The perl plugin implements a Perl-interpreter into collectd. You can
write your own plugins in Perl and return arbitrary values using this
needed. Please read collectd-unixsock(5) for a description on how that's
done.
+ * Filtering and rewriting values dispatched to collectd can be done by the
+ following plugins:
+
+ - filter_pcre
+ Filter and rewrite value lists based on Perl-compatible regular
+ expressions.
+
* Logging is, as everything in collectd, provided by plugins. The following
plugins keep up informed about what's going on:
Used to capture packets by the `dns' plugin.
<http://www.tcpdump.org/>
+ * libpcre (optional)
+ Used by the `filter_pcre' plugin.
+ <http://www.pcre.org/>
+
* libperl (optional)
Obviously used by the `perl' plugin. The library has to be compiled with
ithread support (introduced in Perl 5.6.0).
disable all plugins whose requirements cannot be fulfilled (any other plugin
will be enabled). To enable a plugin, install missing dependencies (see
section `Prerequisites' above) and rerun `configure'. If you specify the
- `--enable-<plugin>' configure option, you can force the plugin to be built.
- This will most likely fail though unless you're working in a very unusual
- setup and you really know what you're doing.
+ `--enable-<plugin>' configure option, the script will fail if the depen-
+ dencies for the specified plugin are not met. If you specify the
+ `--disable-<plugin>' configure option, the plugin will not be built. Both
+ options are meant for package maintainers and should not be used in everyday
+ situations.
By default, collectd will be installed into `/opt/collectd'. You can adjust
this setting by specifying the `--prefix' configure option - see INSTALL for
