Use-cases

Dynamically generate sources for new ressources:

  • K8s pods/containers that need more that just stdout logs
  • Service published inside directory like consul or etcd

Proposal

Vector could:

  • read annotation or label for k8s (could also serve as an on/off flag for generic pods logs collection)
  • read labels for docker container
  • read metadata in selected service discovery providers
  • etc.

And create the source accordingly.

Closing this since we don't have plans to introduce service discovery into Vector (though this could be something we consider in the future).
