The size of the resulting batches are determined either by a discrete size or, if the field `byte_size` is non-zero, then by total size in bytes (which ever limit is reached first). 20 21 ```yaml 22 # Config fields, showing default values 23 label: "" 24 split: 25 size: 1 26 byte_size: 0 27 ``` 28 29 This processor is for breaking batches down into smaller ones. In order to break a single message out into multiple messages use the [`unarchive` processor](/docs/components/processors/unarchive). 30 31 If there is a remainder of messages after splitting a batch the remainder is also sent as a single batch. For example, if your target size was 10, and the processor received a batch of 95 message parts, the result would be 9 batches of 10 messages followed by a batch of 5 messages. 32 33 The functionality of this processor depends on being applied across messages 34 that are batched. You can find out more about batching [in this doc](/docs/configuration/batching). 35 36 ## Fields 37 38 ### `size` 39 40 The target number of messages. 41 42 43 Type: `int` 44 Default: `1` 45 46 ### `byte_size` 47 48 An optional target of total message bytes. 49 50 51 Type: `int` 52 Default: `0` 53 54
