What used to happen is that options in the <parser> section get ignored when we send events as a JSON array. This occurs because parser plugins are designed to handle a single hash value and do not generallly handle an array input well. Until now, we have tried to solve this issue by emulating the semantics of parser plugins in Fluent::Plugin::HttpInput (see 1afbfb1, 39f3a0d and f560017). However, this approach turned out to be error prone and rather tedious. This patch takes a different approach: - Whenever @parser is available, reuse @parser.convert_values() by manually applying it to each record in an input array. - Otherwise, fall back to the current logic. ... and should solve this class of issues.

Problem
What used to happen is that options in the
<parser>section get ignoredwhen we send events as a JSON array. This occurs because parser plugins
are designed to handle a single hash value and do not generallly handle
an array input well.
Until now, we have tried to solve this issue by emulating the semantics
of parser plugins in Fluent::Plugin::HttpInput (see 1afbfb1, 39f3a0d
and f560017). However, this approach turned out to be error prone and
rather tedious.
More Generalized solution
This patch takes a different path:
@parseris available, reuse@parser.convert_values()bymanually applying it to each record in an input array.
The good part of this approach is that we do not need to duplicate the same
code in
in_httpandparser_jsonanymore, and it fixes this class of relatedissues.
