RocketMQ Logger Configuration

Parameters

See plugin common configurations for configuration options available to all plugins.

nameserver_list — array[string] · required

List of RocketMQ nameservers.
topic — string · required

Target topic to push the data to.
key — string · optional

Key of the message.
tag — string · optional

Tag of the message.
log_format — object · optional

Custom log format using key-value pairs in JSON format. Values can reference built-in variables.

In APISIX from 3.15.0, log format nested structures are supported up to five levels deep. In API7 Enterprise, only flat key-value structures are supported; nested structures are not yet supported.

You can also configure log format on a global scale using the plugin metadata, which configures the log format for all rocketmq-logger plugin instances. If the log format configured on the individual plugin instance differs from the log format configured on plugin metadata, the log format configured on the individual plugin instance takes precedence. See the example for more details.
log_format_extra — object · optional

Additional fields to add to the default log entry, using key-value pairs in JSON format. Values can reference built-in variables. A configured field does not overwrite an existing default field. A plugin instance takes precedence over plugin metadata; setting an empty object on the instance disables the metadata value. When log_format is configured, log_format_extra is ignored. Introduced in API7 Enterprise 3.9.15 and 3.10.2, and APISIX 3.18.0.
timeout — integer · optional · default: 3

Timeout for the upstream to send data.
use_tls — boolean · optional · default: false

If true, verify SSL.
access_key — string · optional

Access key for ACL. Setting to an empty string will disable the ACL.
secret_key — string · optional

Secret key for ACL. The value is encrypted with AES before being stored in etcd.
name — string · optional · default: rocketmq logger

Unique identifier of the plugin for the batch processor. If you use Prometheus to monitor APISIX metrics, the name is exported in apisix_batch_process_entries.
meta_format — string · optional · default: default

Valid values: default or origin

Format to collect the request information. Setting to default collects the information in JSON format and origin collects the information with the original HTTP request. See the example for more details.
include_req_body — boolean · optional · default: false

If true, include the request body in the log. Note that if the request body is too big to be kept in the memory, it can not be logged due to NGINX's limitations.
include_req_body_expr — array[array] · optional

An array of one or more conditions in the form of APISIX expressions. Used when the include_req_body is true. Request body would only be logged when the expressions configured here evaluate to true.
include_resp_body — boolean · optional · default: false

If true, include the response body in the log.
include_resp_body_expr — array[array] · optional

An array of one or more conditions in the form of APISIX expressions. Used when the include_resp_body is true. Response body would only be logged when the expressions configured here evaluate to true.
max_req_body_bytes — integer · optional · default: 524288

Valid values: greater than or equal to 1

Maximum request body size in bytes to include in the log. If the request body exceeds this value, it will be truncated. Available in APISIX from 3.16.0.
max_resp_body_bytes — integer · optional · default: 524288

Valid values: greater than or equal to 1

Maximum response body size in bytes to include in the log. If the response body exceeds this value, it will be truncated. Available in APISIX from 3.16.0.
batch_max_size — integer · optional · default: 1000

Valid values: greater than 0

The number of log entries allowed in one batch. Once reached, the batch will be sent to the logging service. Setting this parameter to 1 means immediate processing.
inactive_timeout — integer · optional · default: 5

Valid values: greater than 0

The maximum time in seconds to wait for new logs before sending the batch to the logging service. The value should be smaller than buffer_duration.
buffer_duration — integer · optional · default: 60

Valid values: greater than 0

The maximum time in seconds from the earliest entry allowed before sending the batch to the logging service.
retry_delay — integer · optional · default: 1

Valid values: greater than or equal to 0

The time interval in seconds to retry sending the batch to the logging service if the batch was not successfully sent.
max_retry_count — integer · optional · default: 0

Valid values: greater than or equal to 0

The maximum number of unsuccessful retries allowed before dropping the log entries.

Plugin Metadata

log_format — object · optional

Custom log format using key-value pairs in JSON format. Values can reference built-in variables.

In APISIX from 3.15.0, log format nested structures are supported up to five levels deep. In API7 Enterprise, only flat key-value structures are supported; nested structures are not yet supported.
log_format_extra — object · optional

Additional fields to add to the default log entry, using key-value pairs in JSON format. Values can reference built-in variables. A configured field does not overwrite an existing default field. A plugin instance takes precedence over plugin metadata; setting an empty object on the instance disables the metadata value. When log_format is configured, log_format_extra is ignored. Introduced in API7 Enterprise 3.9.15 and 3.10.2, and APISIX 3.18.0.
max_pending_entries — integer · optional · default: 8192 in APISIX 3.18.0 and in API7 Enterprise 3.9.19 and 3.10.6; none in API7 Enterprise 3.9.18 and 3.10.5

Valid values: greater than or equal to 1

Maximum number of entries waiting in the batch processor. New entries are discarded when the backlog reaches the limit.

Introduced in API7 Enterprise 3.8.17 and APISIX 3.15.0.

The default changed to 8192 in APISIX 3.18.0 and in API7 Enterprise 3.9.19 on the 3.9 line and 3.10.6 on the 3.10 line. In API7 Enterprise 3.9.18 and 3.10.5, and in earlier APISIX versions, omitting the parameter leaves the backlog unlimited.
