Error using inputs.httpjson

[Alan1810]

Hi,

I'm trying to use inputs.json with telegraf 1.1.2 on Ubuntu 14.04.5 but I have this error in telegraf log file :

ERROR in input [inputs.httpjson]: unable to parse out as JSON, json: cannot unmarshal array into Go value of type map[string]interface {}

Telegraf configuration is :

[[inputs.httpjson]]
    name = "nodejs_stats"
    servers = [ "http://localhost:3000/api/monitoring/apps" ]
    response_timeout = "5s"
    method = "GET"
    tag_keys = [ "name" ]

JSON output response is :

[{"pid":21078,"name":"api-wrapper","pm_id":0,"status":"online","memory":51695616,"cpu":0,"restart_time":0,"unstable_restarts":0},{"pid":21087,"name":"api-wrapper","pm_id":1,"status":"online","memory":51945472,"cpu":0,"restart_time":0,"unstable_restarts":0},{"pid":21096,"name":"rest-api","pm_id":2,"status":"online","memory":74776576,"cpu":7,"restart_time":0,"unstable_restarts":0},{"pid":21101,"name":"rest-api","pm_id":3,"status":"online","memory":73617408,"cpu":1,"restart_time":0,"unstable_restarts":0}]

Anyone has an idea to resolve this problem ?

in telegraf 1.1.2 the JSON parser did not have the ability to parse arrays, this will be a feature in release 1.2: #1965
