Hello,

There are a few date related macros, and I think you are looking for the $ISODATE. Of course first you have to fix up the date with the 

Configuration:
@version: 3.15

log {
        source{internal();};
        source{stdin(flags(no-parse));};
        parser { kv-parser(); 
                 date-parser(format("%s") template("${generateTime}"));
        };
        destination{file("/dev/stdout" template("$ISODATE $MSG\n") frac-digits(3));};
};



Console:
Input:
    Apr 25 16:46:51 host.example.net .., generateTime=1524674663, ...

Output:
2018-04-25T18:44:23.000+02:00     Apr 25 16:46:51 host.example.net .., generateTime=1524674663, ...

You may need to tweak the configuration further more.

How do I change the time in the log to append a timezone. Timestamp should be based on generateTime=1523620861 which is in the log

So today the time in the shows like this  

    Apr 25 16:46:51 host.example.net .., generateTime=1524674663, ...

I like to change it like below

    2018-04-25T16:46:55+0000 host.example.net ...,generateTime=1524674663, ....


 


{"PROGRAM":"alarmLog,","PRIORITY":"notice","MESSAGE":"applianceName=KING-MER-50-PRI, tenantName=king, alarmType=vrrp-v3-proto-error, alarmKey=0|vni-0/3.0, generateTime=1523620861, applianceId=1, vsnId=0, tenantId=4, alarmCause=causeOther, alarmClearable=no, alarmClass=new, alarmKind=root, alarmEventType=equipmentAlarm, alarmSeverity=indeterminate, alarmOwner=tenant, alarmSeqNo=36657, alarmText=\"vni-0/3.0\", siteName=","HOST":"host.example.net","FACILITY":"user","DATE":"Apr 13 04:01:22"}


That was the output of    

   filter f_alarm { facility(user) and match("alarmLog" value("PROGRAM")); };
   
   destination d_alarm { file ("/var/log/alarms.log" template("$(format-json -s syslog-proto)\n")); };




I am using syslog-ng version 3.5.6, latest from centos 7

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?
