I am looking for Perl script execution steps in Splunk. Please provide the details steps in case of possible.
Hello @dada1234
splunk can get parse output of any script which supported by the operating system. Follow these steps for Linux:
write a perl script
#!/usr/bin/perl
print "hello";
place it in /opt/splunk/etc/apps/search/bin/ and add an executable bit
chmod +x /opt/splunk/etc/apps/search/bin/test.pl
test your script using CLI
/opt/splunk/etc/apps/search/bin/test.pl
hello
configure your inputs.conf (/opt/splunk/etc/apps/search/local/inputs.conf)
[script://./bin/test.pl]
disabled = false
sourcetype = test1
interval = 10
restart splunk
search
index=* sourcetype=test1
Splunk supports Python and shell (bash) scripts. Other program/script types can be invoked via bash. If you describe want you want to accomplish then perhaps someone can be more specific.
