[jira] [Created] (METRON-1874) Create a Parser Debugger

Nick Allen created METRON-1874:
----------------------------------

             Summary: Create a Parser Debugger
                 Key: METRON-1874
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-1874
             Project: Metron
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Nick Allen
            Assignee: Nick Allen


Users need a way to test their parser configurations in a controlled environment. This would allow a user to tweak and test the parser configuration before deploying it into a live Metron cluster.  The user could also use the REPL to understand why a particular message failed to parse correctly.

This could follow the pattern of the [Profiler Debugger|https://github.com/apache/metron/tree/master/metron-analytics/metron-profiler#creating-profiles] and [Threat Triage Simulator|https://github.com/apache/metron/tree/master/metron-platform/metron-management#simulate-threat-triage-rules]. This allows a user to apply canned messages against a configuration and inspect the output, all within the REPL.

These tools can also help users build up their configuration without having to write as much JSON.
