Generic Logstash pipeline for ELK stack.
To add Logstash config files, you can add files into the <path to project packages>/data-mapper-logstash/pipeline.
When seeking to make changes to the Logstash configs without having to repeatedly start and stop the service, one can set the LOGSTASH_DEV_MOUNT
env var in your .env file to true
to attach the service's config files to those on your local machine.
When attaching Logstash to an Elasticsearch cluster ensure you use the ES_HOSTS
environment variable. eg. ES_HOSTS="analytics-datastore-elastic-search-1:9200","analytics-datastore-elastic-search-2:9200","analytics-datastore-elastic-search-3:9200"
and reference it in your logstash configs eg. hosts => [$ES_HOSTS]
With
LOGSTASH_DEV_MOUNT=true
, you have to set theLOGSTASH_PACKAGE_PATH
variable with the absolute path to package containing your Logstash config files, i.e.,LOGSTASH_PACKAGE_PATH=/home/user/Documents/Projects/platform/data-mapper-logstash
.WARNING: do not edit the pipeline files from within the Logstash container, or the group ID and user ID will change, and subsequently will result in file permission errors on your local file system.
