| Use attribute `_raw_options` for attribute that using value such as `Array` or `Hash`. For example when you using [FluentD systemd plugin](https://github.com/reevoo/fluent-plugin-systemd). | |||

Honestly speaking, I'm skeptical if this is so useful. If I understand the situation correctly, just passing the parameter as a String must be sufficient for that purpose.
td_agent_source 'tail_journalctl' do
( ... )
parameters(
matches: ::JSON.generate([{"_SYSTEMD_UNIT": "syslog.service"}])
read_from_head: true
)
endI know the TdAgent::Helpers.params_to_text isn't well implemented, but this change would make the situation more complicated with very few actual benefit, I think 🤔

Hi, @yyuu thanks for reviewing my PR. I will try your approach and will tell you soon if this works on my case.

Hi, @yyuu so I've been thinking about your approach. But I found a problem when using this method. How can user set this attributes from nodes.json files where we can't use ruby code? This will be okay if the user set the attribute directly in attributes files.
Thanks in advance.
Add capabilities to add an attribute with raw values. This cases will be useful for a plugin like this. The
matchesattribute, need to receive either[]or{}value.
