Hello,
is possible to decode msgpack (TCP input) ?

Data are incoming in readable format (not in HEX), for example:

\x92\xD9@splunkprefiltered.docker.app.1.k8gfal13jx42stjeeok41nq8d.perf03\xDB\x00\x00M\xE2\x92\xCEZ.\x95\x00\x88\xA3log\xDA"\x842017-12-11 15:23:12,035 ERROR  [org.jboss.as.ejb3] (EJB default - 3) WFLYEJB0022:
...

Covert to json would be enough for me.
Thanks

Yes it is possible. You just write a custom data handler and declare it to be applied to your TCP Input.

There are simple examples that ship with the app that you can leverage to get started.

There are many msgpack libraries on Github you could also use for the decoding logic.
