Dummy HTTP source plugin
The Dummy HTTP source plugin generates simulated log data that you can use to test your pipeline configuration.
This plugin is an alias of the Datagen source plugin and uses a predefined template to generate its logs.
This plugin doesn't support the use of a descriptive metadata name in the Pipeline Builder interface.
Supported telemetry types
This plugin supports these telemetry types:
| Logs | Metrics | Traces |
|---|---|---|
Configuration parameters
The Dummy HTTP plugin has no configuration parameters.
Template format
Logs generated by the Dummy HTTP source plugin use the following template format:
template: >-
{
"log": "{{ IPv4Address }} - {{ FirstName }} [{{ Day }}/{{ MonthString }}/{{ Number 2011 2024 }}:{{ Hour }}:{{ Minute }}:{{ Second }} -0700] \"{{ HTTPMethod }} {{ URLPath }} HTTP/{{ HTTPVersion }}\" {{ HTTPStatusCode }} {{ Number 100 10000 }} \"{{ URL }}\" \"{{ UserAgent }}\""
}This template produces logs that resemble the following examples:
