Flume Selectors

Flume Channel Selectors

If the type is not specified, then defaults to “replicating”.
如果未指定类型，则默认为“复制”。

Replicating Channel Selector (default)

Required properties are in bold.

Property Name	Default	Description
selector.type	replicating	The component type name, needs to be replicating
selector.optional	–	Set of channels to be marked as optional

Example for agent named a1 and it’s source called r1:

a1.sources = r1
a1.channels = c1 c2 c3
a1.sources.r1.selector.type = replicating
a1.sources.r1.channels = c1 c2 c3
a1.sources.r1.selector.optional = c3

In the above configuration, c3 is an optional channel. Failure to write to c3 is simply ignored. Since c1 and c2 are not marked optional, failure to write to those channels will cause the transaction to fail.
在上面的配置中，c3是可选的通道。 无法写入c3只是被忽略了。 由于c1和c2未标记为可选，因此无法写入这些通道将导致事务失败。

Multiplexing Channel Selector

Required properties are in bold.

Property Name	Default	Description
selector.type	replicating	The component type name, needs to be multiplexing
selector.header	flume.selector.header
selector.default	–
selector.mapping.*	–

Example for agent named a1 and it’s source called r1:

a1.sources = r1
a1.channels = c1 c2 c3 c4
a1.sources.r1.selector.type = multiplexing
a1.sources.r1.selector.header = state
a1.sources.r1.selector.mapping.CZ = c1
a1.sources.r1.selector.mapping.US = c2 c3
a1.sources.r1.selector.default = c4

根据event的header中state的值来确定扇出到哪一个channel
