Websocket Output Plugin

This plugin can write to a WebSocket endpoint.

It can output data in any of the supported output formats.

Global configuration options

In addition to the plugin-specific configuration settings, plugins support additional global and plugin configuration settings. These settings are used to modify metrics, tags, and field or create aliases and configure ordering, etc. See the CONFIGURATION.md for more details.
