Dots filter

[rinmalavi (Marin Vila)]

Is what i am trying to do.
So i added

dots {} to filter clause.
And so I get:

Couldn't find any filter plugin named 'dots'. Are you sure this is correct? Trying to load the dots filter plugin resulted in this error: Problems loading the requested plugin named dots of type filter. Error: NameError NameError

dots is a codec, not a filter. It's typically used like this:

output { stdout { codec => dots } }
