Create index on pdf file input using logstash

Elastic Stack Logstash
1

Hi All,

I am new to Logstash and have little idea about it.
I need to create an index in ElasticSearch on a pdf file.
Ingesting this pdf file, i heard, can be done with Logstash.
But i have no idea how it could be done.

Thanks in advance!!

You cannot ingest PDF with LS.
https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/plugins/current/mapper-attachments.html may be what you want.

Hi Mark,

Thank you for replying.

I am trying the mapper-attachment but unable to succeed with it.
The code is even confusing how exactly this plugin is working so that i can make out best of it.

I have tried out some codes available in web, but still the same.

Thanks in advance.
