macro

Record a macro, run a macro or return macros list

Aliases

| macro <name> (as [...] | <kwargs>)

The macro command will cast itself into one of three other comands when ran, depending on its arguments:

Command	Effect	Condition
`macros`	List available macros	No argument
`_recordmacro`	Record a macro	A pipeline is given in parameters
`_runmacro`	Run a macro	A macro name and optional arguments are given in parameters

The commands macro (without argument) and macros behaves identically:

| macro

| macros

| macro <name> pipeline

Warning: macro currently does not suoport sub-pipelines (one can't record a macro which itself uses a sub-pipeline).

make_10 will generate 10 events when invoked:

| macro make_10 [ | make count=10 showinfo=yes ]

make_some will generate the number of events if the field named count. If count is not found in the field, it will generate 1 event:

| macro make_some [ | make count=`field(count, 1)` showinfo=yes ]

| macro <name> [<arg>=<value>, ...]

Examples:

| macro make_10

| macro make_some count=5
