Google Cloud PubSub Output Plugin

The GCP PubSub plugin publishes metrics to a Google Cloud PubSub topic as one of the supported output data formats.

Global configuration options

In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc. See the CONFIGURATION.md for more details.
