Getting Started with Openconfigbeat

Requirements

Configuration

Edit _meta/beat.yml with the appropriate configuration.

Build

To build the binary for Openconfigbeat run the command below. This will generate a binary in the same directory with the name openconfigbeat.

make openconfigbeat

Run

To run Openconfigbeat with debugging output enabled, run:

./openconfigbeat -e -d openconfigbeat.go

To override an individual setting in the config file you can use -E, for example:

./openconfigbeat -E output.elasticsearch=elasticsearch:9200

To run as a container:

docker run aristanetworks/openconfigbeat -E openconfigbeat.addresses=device

Update

Each beat has a template for the mapping in elasticsearch and a documentation for the fields which is automatically generated based on _meta/fields.yml. To generate openconfigbeat.template.json and openconfigbeat.yml:

make update

Cleanup

To clean Openconfigbeat source code, run the following commands:

make fmt

To clean up the build directory and generated artifacts, run:

make clean
