This plugin sends telegraf metrics to an external application over stdin.
The command should be defined similar to docker's exec
form:
["executable", "param1", "param2"]
On non-zero exit stderr will be logged at error level.
[[outputs.exec]]
## Command to injest metrics via stdin.
command = ["tee", "-a", "/dev/null"]
## Timeout for command to complete.
# timeout = "5s"
## Data format to output.
## Each data format has its own unique set of configuration options, read
## more about them here:

# data_format = "influx"
