Re: [syslog-ng] group-by() send all messages to destination() ?

Hi Jason, You can use the `$(context-length)` function to get the first message, but that won't help you as you can't (AFAIK) loop through the backref index. What you might be able to do is use the `$(grep)` function maybe it's possible to make it return all matches ? If grouping-by() can't do it, patterndb does: it allows for using the `value` parameter (as in `aggregate()`) for every matching message in the context, not only in the last one. Thus you can concatenate the values of a macro, e.g. in order to collect all `HOST` macros in a given context. I'd open a github issue in order to allow for using `value` in every message matching the context, which sounds like a very useful addition to me. cheers
