Some variables will not interpolate when attempting a dynamic config about logstash-output-sentry HOT 8 CLOSED

@javiermatos What versions of logstash is this tested with?

Hi there @joshzitting, I am sorry but I had no time for your question. I tried my code with Logstash 1.x and maybe 2.0, but I did not try it with any newer version. My sentry version was 7.x, but I think it has nothing to do with sentry itself.

I will try to reproduce your scenario this weekend and find what's going on.

@javiermatos Aweseome! thanks!

Hi again @joshzitting. No input, filter or output module is responsible for "interpolating a dynamic config". Logstash is responsible for doing substitutions, so if you do level_tag => "%{sentry_severity}", then Logstash will pass the value of sentry_severity variable to level_tag.

Can you try to simplify your configuration to a minimal case so you can find which step is failing? I mean, I have seen you have defined sentry_severity and [sentry_severity] fields, and sometimes you apply mutate gsub to one or the other. Lastly, you are using level_tag => "%{sentry_severity}" in output but you have added this [sentry_severity] field previously.

Maybe you can try to replace level_tag => "%{sentry_severity}" with level_tag => "%{severity}" and see what happens on Sentry. Can you do this last thing and tell me what you get on Sentry?

well I tried a handful of things and still cannot get it to send the right data.. so I made a ticket in logstash. https://discuss.elastic.co/t/string-interpolation-failing-in-event-dependent-config/50768
Thanks.

@joshzitting this plugin is not ready to take this value dynamically from the event
@javiermatos please see #2

Hey @joshzitting and @wiibaa, I have merged your code and now it is on rubygems.org to download.

Thank you for your help.
