use Golang to create a new input plugin

[666MrFang]

Ask a question, how to use Golang to create a new input plugin, is there any example? I currently only see examples of using Golang to create output plugins in fluent/fluent-bit-go

I mentioned this at the community meeting today: https://github.com/calyptia/lts-advanced-plugin-dummy

Sir，is calyptia/plugin a guide document for creating input plugins in Golang officially adopted by fluent? Is there any official documentation for fluent to specify the creation of input plugins through Golang?

Calyptia are the maintainers of Fluent Bit, this is an example of creating an input plugin in case you wanted to use it: it's a simple skeleton you can reuse if needs be - we use it internally for other plugins for our Enterprise offerings for example.

As you say though, we probably need some docs around this in as well so I'll see if I can flag that up to get something put together.
