Hi all,
I have .log file with following content. values separated by [tab].
|2018-10-04-00-15-17|10.1.1.100|8080|10.1.1.105|1|
|2018-10-04-00-15-20|10.1.1.10|80|10.2.1.15|1|
|2018-10-04-00-15-31|10.4.1.20|50560|10.1.1.105|1|
|2018-10-04-00-15-48|10.1.1.10|8080|10.4.1.21|1|
|2018-10-04-00-15-60|10.1.1.100|8080|10.1.1.105|1|
* * *
I have to give fields name for these values and push it in to elasticsearch.
The fields should be following.
**time src port dst count**
I don't know how to write logstash pipeline logic for push data to elasticsearch.
My Expected output
{
"time":"2018-10-04-00-15-17",
"src":"10.1.1.100",
"port":"8080",
"dst":"10.1.1.105",
"count":1
}
Thanks,
Sundar.

You need
- a file input,
- a csv filter (with the `separator` option set to `\t`), and
- an elasticsearch output.
There are lots of blog posts that show complete examples.

Ok that's fine. How to map the fields with appropriate values?
