Filebeat JSON input

Does Filebeat support JSON input ? I want to use filebeat to monitor one of my state file that's in JSON format.

Thank you for any input.

This will be support in Filebeat 5.0, recently released in an alpha version. See https://github.com/elastic/beats/pull/1143. If you're shipping the file to Logstash you don't need native JSON support in Filebeat.
