I am trying to read a local gzipped file with below, but i can't even install gzip. Error also below. Is it supported yet?

```
file {
path => "/Users/alliey/Desktop/log_file/generic20161017.log.gz"
start_position => "beginning"
type => "json"
codec => gzip_lines{ charset => "UTF-8" }
 }

```

error:  
`In Gemfile: logstash-codec-gzip_lines (>= 0) java depends on logstash (< 2.0.0, >= 1.4.0) java Could not find gem 'logstash (< 2.0.0, >= 1.4.0) java', which is required by gem 'logstash-codec-gzip_lines (>= 0) java', in any of the sources`
