Installing from ZIP archive

  4. │   └── fluent-bit.exe
  5. ├── conf
  6. │   ├── fluent-bit.conf
  7. │   ├── parsers.conf
  8. │   └── plugins.conf

  11.     │   ├── ...
  12.     │   └── flb_worker.h
  13.     └── fluent-bit.h

Now, launch cmd.exe or PowerShell on your machine, and execute fluent-bit.exe as follows.

  1. PS> .\bin\fluent-bit.exe -i dummy -o stdout
