Kubernetes Events Input

Is there a Input for kubernetes events?

[gregfurman]

Hey! Thanks for raising this. Don't think there is functionality for watching for K8s events. However, there is an open PR for watching etcd events. Since K8s events are stored in etcd you could hypothetically use the etcd watcher to stream these events instead. Saw a SO answer for doing this with the etcdctl.

Curious, what is your use-case?

Use Case: k8s API and Events Provides Data which are interesting for other IT systems, In particular we would like to have them published / integrated towards NATS

I think that maybe when we get the etcd component in - we could look at writing a cookbook to provide this functionality?

@hwinkel The new etcd input has been released. Haven't tested it with K8s though. Lemme know if you can use it to read kubernetes events!
