How to deploy logstash with persistent volume on kubernetes?

Using GKE to deploy logstash by statefulset kind with pvc. Also need to install an output plugin.

When don't use while true; do sleep 1000; done; in container's command args, it can't deploy with pvc successfully.

The pod will cause CrashLoopBackOff error.

  Normal   Created                 13s (x2 over 14s)  kubelet                  Created container logstash
  Normal   Started                 13s (x2 over 13s)  kubelet                  Started container logstash
  Warning  BackOff                 11s (x2 over 12s)  kubelet                  Back-off restarting failed container

From here I found it can try to add sleep. So the statefulset with pvc can deploy successfully.

But when check its logs will find:

/bin/sh: bin/logstash-plugin: No such file or directory
/bin/sh: bin/logstash: No such file or directory

How to do it in a good way to start container to install an logstash output plugin?
