Daily rotating dbs?

[mzehrer]

Is ist possible to create daily rotating databases with pino-elasticsearch?

[alexgoldstone]

I believe this will be a feature request... I came here with the same requirement...

Currently pino-elasticsearch provides a --index option.

We require an additional option to specify a time-based index.

Rather than making the format totally dynamic - I propose this is limited to daily, monthly or yearly resolution inline with the Elastic Search documentation here:

https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/guide/current/retiring-data.html

Examples:

For --index logs --index-time year the index would be in the form logs_2018
For --index logs --index-time month the index would be in the form logs_2018-04
For --index logs --index-time day the index would be in the form logs_2018-04-19

Just saw this, you can use the placeholder %{DATE} introduced in this PR: https://github.com/pinojs/pino-elasticsearch/pull/22/files

I confirm that I have been using the %{DATE} option for some time and it works well.
