How to parse a field in YAML syntax with Logstash

Hi,

I want to parse Puppet reports with Logstash. Since they are in YAML I need a way to parse a YAML field in Logstash. I found https://github.com/logstash-plugins/logstash-filter-yaml but this seems to work only with Logstash < 2.x . Since this is a test and training environment I want to plan for the future and use Logstash 5.x(alpha).

Could anyone give me a hint how to translate YAML with Logstash?

Cheers,
Thomas
