When I use Internet to install logstash plugin, we met the blew issue:  
$ ./logstash-plugin install logstash-output-kafka  
Validating logstash-output-kafka  
Installing logstash-output-kafka  
Error Bundler::InstallError, retrying 1/10  
An error occurred while installing logstash-core-event-java (5.0.1), and Bundler cannot continue.  
Make sure that `gem install logstash-core-event-java -v '5.0.1'` succeeds before bundling.

$ gem install logstash-core-event-java -v '5.0.1'  
ERROR: Could not find a valid gem 'logstash-core-event-java' (= 5.0.1) in any repository  
ERROR: Possible alternatives: logstash-codec-netflow, logstash-codec-nmap, logstash-event, logstash-codec-avro, logstash-codec-bytes

So is there any way we can install the logstash plugin without internet and no need to use root?
