optional string literalcredentials_path
must be set.credentials_path
common optional string literalThe filename for a Google Cloud service account credentials JSON file used to authenticate access to the pubsub project and topic. If this is unset, Vector checks the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS
environment variable for a filename.
If no filename is named, Vector will attempt to fetch an instance service account for the compute instance the program is running on. If Vector is not running on a GCE instance, you must define a credentials file as above.

Environment variables
HTTPS_PROXY
common optional string literalThe global URL to proxy HTTPS requests through.
If another HTTPS proxy is set in the configuration file or at a component level, this one will be overridden.
The lowercase variant has priority over the uppercase one.
HTTP_PROXY
common optional string literalThe global URL to proxy HTTP requests through.
If another HTTP proxy is set in the configuration file or at a component level, this one will be overridden.
The lowercase variant has priority over the uppercase one.
NO_PROXY
common optional string literalList of hosts to avoid proxying globally.
Allowed patterns here include:
Pattern | Example match |
---|---|
Domain names | example.com matches requests to example.com |
Wildcard domains | .example.come matches requests to example.com and its subdomains |
IP addresses | 127.0.0.1 matches requests to 127.0.0.1 |
CIDR blocks | 192.168.0.0./16 matches requests to any IP addresses in this range |
Splat | * matches all hosts |
If another no_proxy
value is set in the configuration file or at a component level, this
one is overridden.
The lowercase variant has priority over the uppercase one.
http_proxy
common optional string literalThe global URL to proxy HTTP requests through.
If another HTTP proxy is set in the configuration file or at a component level, this one will be overridden.

GCP Pub/Sub
gcp_pubsub
source streams messages from GCP Pub/Sub.
This is a highly scalable / durable queueing system with at-least-once queuing semantics.
Messages are received in a stream and are either acknowledged immediately after receiving
or after it has been fully processed by the sink(s), depending on if any of the sink(s)
have the acknowledgements
