custom plugin installation into MacOs- td-agent-gem

[learning]

module Fluent
    class SplitMsgFilter < Filter
        Fluent::Plugin.register_output('split_msg', self)  

        # config_param works like other plugins

        def configure(conf)

            super

        end
        def filter(tag, time, record)

            msgs = record['message'].split("\|")

            event_time = msgs[0]

            ip = msgs[2]

            # replace profile4 or add ip to record or etc...

            record

        end

    end

end

I wanted to use this plugin but when I try to install this custom plugin into MacOs  using the following command

td-agent-gem ~/filter_split_msg.rb 

ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Gem::CommandLineError)

    Unknown command ~/filter_split_msg.rb

what I am doing wrong here?.

Thanks for the details. Sorry for asking many questions . I am really a beginner on fluentd and trying to understand 

above custom filter what should be entry in conf file .

I tried as follows but got an error. 

<filter test>

@type split_msg

</filter>

2017-01-13 10:08:22 -0500 [error]: config error file="/etc/fluent/fluent.conf" error="Unknown filter plugin 'split_msg'. Run 'gem search -rd fluent-plugin' to find plugins"

Should be "Fluent::Plugin.register_filter('split_msg', self)"

It is 'Fluent::Plugin.register_output('split_msg', self) '

using inside config

<filter test>

@type split_msg

</filter>

module Fluent
    class SplitMsgFilter < Filter
        Fluent::Plugin.register_output('split_msg', self)  
        # config_param works like other plugins

        def configure(conf)

            super

        end
        def filter(tag, time, record)

            msgs = record['message'].split("\|")

            event_time = msgs[0]

            ip = msgs[2]

            # replace profile4 or add ip to record or etc...

            record

        end

    end

end
