Detect when logstash is finished when using elasticsearch input filter

Elastic Stack Logstash
1

Hello,

Is there a possiblity to detect if logstash is finished when using elasticsearch input filter.
I already know about the options when using file and stdin input filter.

And if not, what alternatives do i have.

Hopefully somebody can help me...

The elasticsearch input does not notify logstash that it has finished consuming data. So you would have to build something external to logstash. If you know what the last record will be you could check for that being present in the output, otherwise check the level of resource consumption by logstash.

logstash is not well matched to this use case.

That's a pity.
Thank you for the clarification.
