This PR adds support for user-defined operator aliases that can be defined in the config. For example:
This allows composing more complex pipelines, for instance
from vast | anonymize_urls | aggregate_flows | write json to stdout
. The PR only affects the new pipelines, which will eventually be used everywhere. The new pipeline parser also looks for definitions invast.pipelines
instead ofvast.operators
. However, this behavior is immediately considered deprecated and only available for compatibility.
