To enable more flexibilty around the output format to kinesis I have refactored it to use the inbuilt serialisation package.

The test was removed as the only thing it tested was a custom formatting function which has been removed.

Required for all PRs:

  • CHANGELOG.md updated (we recommend not updating this until the PR has been approved by a maintainer)
  • Sign CLA (if not already signed)

I know it was this way before this PR but is there a need for this to be atomic? Same for line 188.

And thanks for the feedback!

Won't this break existing users that are using a custom format?

I am not sure how the custom format came to be but it seemed to me to be a placeholder, it actually contains duplicate data which makes it harder to parse..

That said I would not introduce this without calling out the change in format, I myself had to trim off the swap,map[host:rufus] (see sample below) to parse it using the influx format.

So in summary that this change goes from influx format with prefix containing duplicate data, to just influx format so I think it is justified.

Thanks for this @wolfeidau, but you'll need to rebase before we can merge this.

You'll need to change the code that handles the serialized metrics, because we've changed this interface to return []byte instead of []string. This means that a single []byte buffer should be sent together, as this could represent a single or multiple metrics (with newlines included).
