class EventFormattingAgent < Agent
cannot_be_scheduled!
description <<-MD
An Event Formatting Agent allows you to format incoming Events, adding new fields as needed.
For example, here is a possible Event:
{
"high": {
"celsius": "18",
"fahreinheit": "64"
},
"date": {
"epoch": "1357959600",
"pretty": "10:00 PM EST on January 11, 2013"
},
"conditions": "Rain showers",
"data": "This is some data"
}
You may want to send this event to another Agent, for example a Twilio Agent, which expects a `message` key.
You can use an Event Formatting Agent's `instructions` setting to do this in the following way:
"instructions": {
"message": "Today's conditions look like <$.conditions> with a high temperature of <$.high.celsius> degrees Celsius.",
"subject": "$.data"
}
JSONPaths must be between < and > . Make sure that you don't use these symbols anywhere else.
Events generated by this possible Event Formatting Agent will look like:
{
"message": "Today's conditions look like Rain showers with a high temperature of 18 degrees Celsius.",
"subject": "This is some data"
}
In `matchers` setting you can perform regular expression matching against contents of events and expand the match data for use in `instructions` setting. Here is an example:
{
"matchers": [
{
"path": "$.date.pretty",
"regexp": "\\A(?<time>\\d\\d:\\d\\d [AP]M [A-Z]+)",
"to": "pretty_date",
}
]
}
This virtually merges the following hash into the original event hash:
"pretty_date": {
"time": "10:00 PM EST",
"0": "10:00 PM EST on January 11, 2013"
"1": "10:00 PM EST",
}
So you can use it in `instructions` like this:
"instructions": {
"message": "Today's conditions look like <$.conditions> with a high temperature of <$.high.celsius> degrees Celsius according to the forecast at <$.pretty_date.time>.",
"subject": "$.data"
}
If you want to retain original contents of events and only add new keys, then set `mode` to `merge`, otherwise set it to `clean`.
By default, the output event will have `agent` and `created_at` fields added as well, reflecting the original Agent type and Event creation time. You can skip these outputs by setting `skip_agent` and `skip_created_at` to `true`.
To CGI escape output (for example when creating a link), prefix with `escape`, like so:
{
"message": "A peak was on Twitter in <$.group_by>. Search: https://twitter.com/search?q=<escape $.group_by>"
}
