# Standard Output

**stdout** 输出插件允许将通过输入插件接收的数据打印到标准输出。它的用法非常简单，如下所示:

## Configuration Parameters

| Key                | Description                                                                 | default |
| ------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------- |
| Format             | 指定要输出的数据格式。支持的格式为 `msgpack`,`json`,`json_lines`,`json_stream`               | msgpack |
| json\_date\_key    | 在输出中指定日期字段名称                                                                | date    |
| json\_date\_format | 指定日期格式。支持的格式为 `double`,`iso8601`(如: *2018-05-30T09:39:52.000681Z*),`epoch`. | double  |

### Command Line

```bash
$ bin/fluent-bit -i cpu -o stdout -v
```

我们使用 [CPU](https://app.gitbook.com/s/-M7r4TRvogEqaAD3Fmce/pipleline/inputs/cpu.md) 输入插件收集 CPU 使用的数据指标，并以易读的方式将它们打印到标准输出中:

```bash
$ bin/fluent-bit -i cpu -o stdout -p format=msgpack -v
