Log collector shell script

The assignment is to create a log collector shell script that reads csv-formatted log events from stdin and publishes them in json format to a remote server via HTTP requests. The functional requirements are as follows: -The script is launched by a daemon process which constantly writes event records to stdin of the script. -The script buffers records until either the buffer size exceeds x records or x seconds has elapsed since first record in the buffer. -When the buffer is flushed, the records are sent to remote server via HTTP POST request (using curl) -Input is in csv format (i.e value1,value2,value3 ...). Some fields are transformed using lookup maps and then mapped to a json record (i.e {"field1": "transformedValue1", "field2": "value2", "field3": "transformedValue3"...}). Payload of the POST request is a json array of the records. -If record mapping fails (i.e field value not found in lookup map when transforming a value), the record is ignored. -If flushing fails due to network error, the script should keep retrying until it succeeds. -If flushing fails due to request error (HTTP status other than 200), the script should write error reason to stderr and exit. -The script should not continue reading from stdin until the buffer is flushed succesfully -The script accepts remote server address and an authentication token (passed as a header with the POST requests) via command line arguments. Other configurations are defined as constants in the beginning of the script.
