As discussed in #25, when storing metrics into a hash, one could prefer to strip the name of the "container" from the metrics name outputting
foo.bar
to graphite instead ofmymetrics.foo.bar
when the event contains a field
mymetrics
of type HashThis PR propose to add a boolean config to strip this prefix and help is wanted in finding the best name for it as it is only applicable to hash-fields.
I'm still working on the doc and the spec, but would like feedback for the field name
@jsvd @purbon @jordansissel want to propose something better than skip_prefix_for_metrics_hash ?
