* [outputs.signalfx] Add output plugin for SignalFX This output plugin converts the `telegraf.Metrics` into signalfx `datapoint`s and then transmits them to the ingest servers using signalfx golang client lib. As of this commit, the client lib is allowed to pick sane defaults and none of its fields are overridable via telegraf config. This can be changed in the future if needed. The unit tests only test for conversion of `telegraf.Metric`s to the `datapoint` structs. All code that executes after that is assumed to be tested in the signalfx client lib itself (and not worth writing end-to-end tests for). Further enhancements: - Custom ingest urls - Better batching - More extensive tests - Support for events, sent by whitelist only Co-authored-by: Ben Keith <benkeith@splunk.com> Co-authored-by: Akshay <akshay.moghe@gmail.com> Co-authored-by: Jay Camp <jcamp@splunk.com> |

[[outputs.signalfx]]
## SignalFx Org Access Token
access_token = "my-secret-token"
## The SignalFx realm that your organization resides in
signalfx_realm = "us9" # Required if ingest_url is not set
## You can optionally provide a custom ingest url instead of the
## signalfx_realm option above if you are using a gateway or proxy
## instance. This option takes precident over signalfx_realm.
ingest_url = "https://my-custom-ingest/"
## Event typed metrics are omitted by default,
## If you require an event typed metric you must specify the
## metric name in the following list.
