Add the local time zone

edit

The add_locale processor enriches each event with the machine’s time zone offset from UTC or with the name of the time zone. It supports one configuration option named format that controls whether an offset or time zone abbreviation is added to the event. The default format is offset. The processor adds the a event.timezone value to each event.

The configuration below enables the processor with the default settings.

processors:
  - add_locale: ~

This configuration enables the processor and configures it to add the time zone abbreviation to events.

processors:
  - add_locale:
      format: abbreviation

Please note that add_locale differentiates between daylight savings time (DST) and regular time. For example CEST indicates DST and and CET is regular time.
