I am new to fluentd. I have configured the basic fluentd setup I need and deployed this to my kubernetes cluster as a daemon set. I'm seeing logs shipped to my 3rd party logging solution. However I now want to deal with some logs that are coming in as multiple entries when they really should be one. The logs from the node look like they are json and are formatted like

{"log":"2019-09-23 18:54:42,102 [INFO] some message \n","stream":"stderr","time":"2019-09-23T18:54:42.102Z"}
{"log": "another message \n","stream":"stderr","time":"2019-09-23T18:54:42.102Z"}

I have a config map that looks like

apiVersion: v1
kind: ConfigMap
metadata:
  name: fluent-config-map
  namespace: logging
  labels:
    k8s-app: fluentd-logzio
data:
  fluent.conf: |-
@include "#{ENV['FLUENTD_SYSTEMD_CONF'] || 'systemd'}.conf"
@include kubernetes.conf
@include conf.d/*.conf

<match fluent.**>
    # this tells fluentd to not output its log on stdout
    @type null
</match>

# here we read the logs from Docker's containers and parse them
<source>
  @id fluentd-containers.log
  @type tail
  path /var/log/containers/*.log

    # Set the buffer type to file to improve the reliability and reduce the memory consumption
    @type file
    path /var/log/fluentd-buffers/stackdriver.buffer

    # in case of the off-the-limits load instead of throwing an exception
    overflow_action block
    # Set the chunk limit conservatively to avoid exceeding the GCL limit
    # of 10MiB per write request.
    chunk_limit_size 2M
    # Cap the combined memory usage of this buffer and the one below to
    # 2MiB/chunk * (6 + 2) chunks = 16 MiB
    queue_limit_length 6
    # Never wait more than 5 seconds before flushing logs in the non-error case.
    flush_interval 5s
    # Never wait longer than 30 seconds between retries.
    retry_max_interval 30
    # Disable the limit on the number of retries (retry forever).
    retry_forever true
    # Use multiple threads for processing.
    flush_thread_count 2
  </buffer>
</match>

My question is how do I get these log messages shipped as one single entry instead of multiple?
