Hi,

seems, that fluentd has an nginx_parser plugin already, another solution that probably should work is to use the grep filters,
something as follows:

<fitler foo.bar>
@type grep
<regexp>
key client
patter ^client.*\ $
</regexp>
<regexp>
key server
pattern ^server.*\ $
</regexp>
<regexp>
key host
pattern ^host.*$
</regexp>
<regexp>
key zone
pattern ^zone.*\ $
</regexp>
…..
</filter>


then use record_trasformer type, to make further modifications. But, I didn’t tried above,
probably it’s something that better to be asked from fluentd community..


br,
Aziz.
